GATES 03/08/2008

Today we almost finished the gates for the fence, the only problem is the latches, Adam didn't get them on today.

Here are some of the pictures from today:

Big side finished (except for the latch)

TURF & FENCING 02/08/2008

2/3 of the turf has now been laid, and we have begun progress on our gates. Here are some pics from yesterday when we were out at the house:

Front of house turfed (we have since put our number on the letter box bricks too)

Otherside of the yard

Front yard (the slope)

The side (still missing turf, meant to come next week)

Back yard turf

Turf behind the tank & down the side

Turf behind patio


Adam and I started production on building the gates out the front yesterday however we only got about 1/2 way through as the drill we were using wasn't strong enough to go through the metal to screw the pailings on the gates. Here are some pics of how far we got on this side. We also did the same on the other side of the house (just don't have pics).

Adam making sure the gate will be level

2nd gate & side pannel on

We also have our security screens in and the ensuite tiles are finished so here are 2 more pics taken later last week.
