New garage door, solar HWS and bamboo
Our new garage panel lift door being installed yesterday.
Amazing how much light the clear panels in the door provide inside the garage.
Glad we chose to go with the Jasper colour door. Sets of the front of the house nicely.
Our Thermann Solar HWS going in too. (it's actually an Apricus, made by them, but rebadged and sold through Reece )
Almost done, just waiting for the tubes on the roof to go up. Job got held up due to the rain.
Bamboo floors are all down now....love it. :)
Here's a few progress pics. Hard to get good pics though as it is covered in building dust....plus we have most of it covered to protect it from tradies.
Will have to take some finished and clean shots.

Painting begins - first coat on plaster throughout
Painting began today...
The first coat of paint being applied today to the wall and ceiling plasterboard throughout.
Quarter strength Dulux Hog Bristle on the ceilings and Half Strength Hog Bristle on the walls.
This initial base coat was sprayed on, then immediately followed by a sheepskin rollers to give it a nice even finish.
No - the paint's not pink! .....it looks 'pink' because of the red plastic protecting the window.
