Week Thirty – The front veranda gets poured

The first set of plans had Tessellated Terra Cotta tiles specified for the front veranda, these would certainly look great and were fairly popular in the Victorian era when the place was built but the heritage of this cottage is working class and there is no sign of Terra Cotta in the rest of the street so plain concrete it is.



The guys have finished it well so painting the concrete may not happen.

While they’re at it, the footings for the carport are poured and yet another skip goes in readiness for the carport steelwork to be erected.



The outside doors are hung so if not for the big hole above the side door, it could be considered lockup.




The Gyprocking continues and the hallways are taking shape. Gypsum power is everywhere.
