20th July. Bench tops installed

At last the benchtops are installed. Looking good...Have to wait 24 hours before I can use the sink but I will be moving my kitchen goods tonight as I am sick of boxes under my bed.

5th July. Kitchen cupboards installed.

Installion of cupboards now complete. Today the template was taken for the Essastone 'Porcini' by Laminex. It will be installed in three weeks. The electrician then can   install stove and hotplates. Then I can start using the kitchen even though I won't have the splashbacks. They should be delivered in about three weeks after the stone is installed.  At last the floorer will come back and give one more coat on the floor and install the skirtings. Also he will re-instate the fridge as he told me no one else is allowed to put it in place in case they scratch the floor! He really cares about his work and it shows. I think then that will be the complete finish!

4th July. Work begins...

4th July. Because they were over a week late they had the installer come the same day so work began about 7.00 am. Took this photo about 7.00 pm

4th July. Kitchen delivered

Well the kitchen didn't arrive last week but delivered 6:40 this morning. Lucky I got up early.
Installer has arrived and sorting things out - needed more room to work so had to move cupboards around the rest of the house.
