Outside is about ready... needs a good clean though |
The bricks still need a clean. The whole site is going to get cleaned before hand over. I'm not sure it's possible to clean away that white line down the middle of the front wall. A little bit disappointed that it's there. It looks like the house had open heart surgery. I can't find anywhere that says it's absolutely unacceptable. The closest info is that the cut bricks look better placed at the end of the walls, not in the centre. I've also found that a brick wall should be aesthetically pleasing but that's subjective. I can understand how it got that way, but still, it's not random enough to be called "character", and everyone I've shown the picture to has noticed it. I'm waiting for them to come back with something. We won't be rendering any walls.
We've had a few looks at the inside and are relieved that our choice of paint has turned out OK. Tiles and carpet go down over the next couple of days. When that's done we'll have some inside photos to show.
Handover won't be until next year.
