Updates @ 27 Nov

Got a call from the contractor at noon to meet up at 5 today, to discuss changes to exterior colour... still the work demands held me back and I only reached there by 5.20. Luckily my wife and I drove separately today and she reached there exactly at 5 pm.

It is important to manage the relationship with your contractor, to ensure work are done smoothly, especially in our case following the delays in payment during milestone 1 & 2.

Anyway, updates?

• All other windows to be installed either on Friday or Saturday.
• The stairs have been installed, and will be covered with the wood flooring from Wednesday on (3 days work)
• Flooring for the top floor will start next week.
• Despite the progress, the contractor still maintained target completion date by March 2008. As we are not in a rush i.e. not staying in Shell housing, that was no problem. 

So, the pictures are here as promised. Enjoy.

One coat done. Second coat by February / March when we are ready to move in.

My wife said every time we drove past the house, my face glowed with pride. I was just so happy that the house already showed exactly how we expected it to look like, and personally, I am fond of the big glass windows. For those familiar with KB area, there is this 2 storey house surrounded with palm trees, facing the new KB courthouse - it has got this big glass window...

 and that is how my wife and I were inspired.
