Splashbacks - At Last !!

After waiting 4 weeks, and a number of false starts, we have the splashbacks installed, not much else has happened since our last post.

Today we had Kev from New Home Inspections inspecting the home and a number of new issues were pointed out, these include:
  • Uneven ceiling in the Master Bedroom
  • Installation missing from parts of roof
  • Plastic strips on windows not BAL compliant
  • More scratches to glass
  • Exposed MDF in garage
  • Entrance light switch behind door
The biggest issue is the base of the hebel. Some of the panels extend below the slab, and hebel cannot have soil against it.












The problem is how can the Hebel base be finished and look acceptable without compromising the panels. Kev suggested a number of solutions but it will be up to Metricon to solve the problems.

 Other activities include:
  • Water tank connected and pump installed
  • Septic connected
  • Grass planted
Meanwhile the vegetable garden is starting to spring to life.


And the driveway is beginning to dry out.
