love your work - a bit of someone elses' time and a little bit of money to generate a bucket load of equity and a PE of 5!
good stuff.
good stuff.
Nathan,
That's why I am on all my reno,s personally.
No one else cares and that's the problem,
I work 7 days a week,sometimes 12 hours a day on mine,because every hour I work is a saving of hundreds.
I don't want to burst your bubble but even if you got 4 builders in there and all working like they care,it will still take longer than what you are saying.
Plaster is still a week off ,its gotta be taped and set,with two coats and in this weather,it is taking a longer time to dry now,especially in a closed up house,even by a professional,there is also cornice to fix,
There is a kitchen to be fitted and finished(2-3 days)
Doors hung,carpentry fit out,skirtings etc (2 -3 Days)
Bathroom,plumbing fit out,toilet,taps etc(2-3 days)
Tiling in wet areas (2-3 days laying and grout),
Waterproofing for floor under bath and shower (If any),
Floor coverings ( up to 2 days),
Painting by professional(5 days internal only)longer for amateurs,
Electrical fit out ,lights,power points etc(around 2 days)
And that doesn't include any work outside yet?
Painting, (5 days external)longer for amateurs.
There still needs to have verandah ceilings fitted,balustrade ?,
Locksmith ?
Windows fitted and framed.
Screens,security or fly?
Blinds /curtains ?
I,m sure I have forgotten some things but you get the drift?
Another thing I am thinking is what have you done to eliminate the smell of smoke and burnt timber? I always spray a coat of clear lacquer over the frames to hold that smell in and to give it a fresh paint smell.
Other than that,it a good project and as long as the boys work until it is finished and they aren't ripping you off in hours,you will do well.
Keep up the good work,

Thanks guys.
Painter, since the video the windows are in, plaster is set. They will work over weekend to make up for their disappearance...
I use to do renos but I have too much on to worry about the labour.
Kitchen and tiling will be done whilst the painter is spraying place inside and out.
The old damaged will be painted with a sealer paint.
Its all being done one colour with airless.
Carpet will be in next week.
