Progress - week of 15 October

I'm actually quite impressed with the work they managed to get done this week! Of course, it started with 3-4 guys on Monday (I had a day off, so I was at home for a while) that came in about 8am, and they were gone for the day by 11:15! And their scope of work was to remove the roof tiles...and I think there are almost as many in pieces on the ground as there are stacked up on the roof to be re-used! Ah well :)
They got the balcony floor framed up and laid, the corner brick pieces laid, and the beginnings of the roof framing...Oh yeah, they also had to raise the scaffolding, so I think the real roof work will begin in earnest next week!

Thought I'd put in this same view...it kind of works as a gauge of our progress...and it shows the stacks of roof tiles

Unfortunately the piles at the bottom of the driveway don't seem to be getting any smaller!

This is the games room downstairs showing the framing of the ceiling and balcony flooring...some big I-beams in there for support.

The view looking towards the pool...it will be nice with the bi-fold doors in!

Our tent roof! and some of the metal framing for the balcony roof

Another view of the balcony roof framework

Just imagine the pitched roof that we'll have when this is done...it will be a beautiful place to sit for a BBQ and look out over the pool!

It looks like the living/dining room as turned into the staging room for the roof works!

They have put in new ceiling joists...didn't know they were doing that, but I won't complain!
