We are almost at the end of the fixing stage…
“when all internal cladding, architraves, skirting, doors, built in shelves, baths, basins, troughs, sinks, cabinets and cupboards of a home are fitted and fixed into position”
It was about time I did another movie for you all… so here is the ‘Fixing extravaganza’. Again, it is set to one of my husband’s awesome chill-out songs. I think he downloaded this to use when he was giving me a massage (back in the day when he was studying massage). I just sold his massage table last week, so I don’t think I will be receiving to many massages to this song in the future!!
I’ve been busy organising fencing quotes, and fitting that into the timeline. We have the landscaping starting mid September, and the driveway around then too. Next week the kitchen is going in, and we are meeting with our window furnisher to discuss blinds for the house. I will go into all of that in more detail in a a future post.
It’s all starting to take shape, we’ll be in before we know it.

PS. Apologies if there is a little movement with the camera in the movie. I had Heidi strapped to the front of me, and a camera held above her head was too enticing to ignore on occasions!
Hi there,
I came across your blog yesterday by accident when i was researching builders in Geelong.
I’m really impressed with the detail you give re your building experience and really enjoy reading about the progress of your beautiful home.
It sounds like Pivot are great builders to deal with and i will certainly be looking into them more seriously since reading your postings.
i look forward to hearing about the next stage, and seeing the end result.
I also really enjoy reading “Hey Bernice” its just so entertaining and interesting, you certainly have a talent for just about everything!

Thanks Leanne. It always makes me so happy to hear that my blog is of interest to others looking to build – that’ s exactly why I started doing it! Pivot have been wonderful, we have had a really good experience with them (and building our first home in general). Glad you ventured over to Hey Bernice, I love doing all my posts for that blog, it keeps me sane to stay creative! Good luck with your impending build. Bin
