Tools down for 2013

Today we received a final update for the year from our builder, 95% of the excavation is complete with only the front courtyard section to be dug out. The excavators did hit rock so the large circular cutter was brought on site to slice the bottom level.

Two land levels have been created as half of the house will be double storey whilst the other half will be single storey though on the same level as the 2nd floor due to the slope of the land. There is still a large amount of spoil to be removed and the rest of the excavation to be done, but all of this will be taken care of early January so that the concreters can lay the slab mid-January.
