first site visit!!

just got back from site with the builder (chris), the electrician (paul) and the plumbers (bruce and damian). zac and i have been given our instructions as to how and where to dig the trench for all the services, and we sorted out some issues in regards to location of meter boxes and the like. too easy. the easter weekend will be dedicated to digging said trench. can't wait!

first site meeting tomorrow

on site tomorrow morning at 7.30am with the builder, the plumber and the electrician. we are going to discuss requirements for the trench that needs to be dug to allow for plumbing, electrical and communications requirements. this is it. no retreat, no surrender.

prevostweir architects website open!

my office has just finalised its new website! there are a few more projects to go up, and a bit of tweaking to do, but for all intents and purposes we are live on the interweb!

check it out here - www.prevostweir.com

finance complete

that is it. papers signed and submitted. we are in. it is done. i feel all light headed and dizzy. and may vomit. well, no turning back now.

the builder has informed me that site works will start in a matter of days, and he is setting up a meeting with the electrician and plumber to determine where zac and i need to dig the trench...trench party, anyone?

...i just vomited a little in my mouth thinking about slab pours and such things...i've done it before but this one is MINE. i'm good at what i do so i shouldn't be worried, but i am anyway. i have good builders and good consultants so it should all go as smooth as any build does...let the countdown begin!

finance? hurry it up!

every bit of paper possible is in to the bank. they have promised us more papers to sign in 1 week. after that i am of the understanding that we get to build our house. the builder is getting anxious and so am i - it is beyond time to build this house!

floor plan - better quality

needed to load up a decent quality plan...here it is.
