Finishing Touches

We have our walk through appointment tomorrow, but I couldn't resist going past today and having a look! Hopefully tomorrow we will have a completion date. We are hoping for 2 weeks. We have been getting quotes for the driveway and paths and will get some for the fencing in the next few days. We need to organise insurance, removalists etc... the start packing! 

The carpets went down today. I'm a bit disappointed with them. They are a  bit lighter than we though and they were supposed to have reddish tinge to them, but don't seem to. They look a bit cheap and nasty too, but its our fault because we chose not to upgrade and went with the basic ones.... at the time it seemed sensible given we have very young children and pets. We will look at replacing them in 10 years or so....



The mirrored doors have gone onto the wardrobes in our room. They look great. The shower fittings have been added, as have the mirrors in the 3 bathrooms. 

The kitchen is looking pretty fab. The splashback went in today too. I like the silver colour, but I wish it were a slightly darker, and more bold. It goes well with the cupboard handles though. They have put the downlights into the cupboards. I think it will look stunning in the evenings.
