Progress Update. Retaining Wall.


Well the retaining wall has been installed that was part of my contract. Its one of the last things to be done to complete the home. The bank has done the valuation inspection and the certificate of occupancy has been ordered.

The front door is still the wrong colour but the painters haven't been back to do the required touch-ups so i assume that will happen soon.

Southern star windows have been through and fitted the trim kits around windows to finish them off. Tape is holding them in place while the adhesive dries.

This window seems have been missed or perhaps they ran out of time.

I noticed a difference between the left and right sides of the front of the house. in the first photo you can see that it is boxed up nicely and on the other side its not complete providing a bird nesting place! I have mentioned this to my SS and he is investigating. To me it looks like it needs an extra brick and then boxing to match the other side.
