Week Thirty-two – Last of first fix, first of second fix

The carpenters are back to get the trusses up and facias onto the carport. Not quite the last of the first fix given the front veranda need to be framed.

  

Inside, skirting boards go on, door frames go in and doors are hung. On the weekend there’s a gang to get the wet area floors set for the tiling.

This week’s selections are paint colours. Inside is pretty simple, Antique White U.S.A.

Outside is reasonably sorted utilising Stone White in most places but what about the woodwork? A different colour for the window woodwork, black doors, highlights on the rendered surfaces?

So the streets of Norwood are trawled looking at what others have done.

Again, in some ways tradition sets the tone and the decision is made to have all painted surfaces the same colour, Stone White with what is now Avocado Green on the window surrounds on the sides pained black.
