Well not quite - but all the previous bricking has been removed. The Austral Bricks truck has been there a couple of times to check out what needs doing to remove the bad lot. They'll all need to be restacked, wrapped in plastic and loaded back on the truck before our new bricks can be delivered. Not sure when that will happen.
Yesterday the last of the cornice went up. The plasterers have done a pretty good job, there are some bits that could be better (a dip where the cornice is joined - that type of thing), but overall not too bad.
You can see the channeling that has been cut in the floor for the electrical conduit. Our SS was as annoyed as we were about this. You can see the black marks on the floor outlining where the island bench will be. All the had to do was channel back to the bench (approx 300mm) and the same on the other side where the conduit comes out in the butlers pantry rather than level with the wall. As you can see they chose to go right across the floor, which was time consuming and unnecessary. Thankfully they haven't cut through any of the reo. It turns out that common sense isn't always common!
