Exterior painting

The exterior painting has started. The upstairs is almost done. The scaffolding is down. The remainder of the first floor will be completed after the ground floor roofing is complete.

When the Red Terra was first put on, it seemed really bright but after a while the colour darkened to a more earthy look and with the vertical slivers of Deep Ocean it all balances out and goes well with red and blue tones enfused throughout the brickwork.

The red definitely stands out in the neighbourhood which has the grey/cream theme dotted throughout - this seems to be the current trend apparently.

They have also started cleaning up the ground (it was a bit of a mess) and in the process the northern fence was "bumped" so have had to call in the fencing guy to fix this weekend.

Roofing and cladding

The first floor roofing is on now and cladding (Scyon Stria) has also commenced.  Here is the curved roof over the garage.

 Standing on the scaffolding, I was able to take photos of the colorbond roofing (Deep Ocean) on the first floor curved roof.

 Here is the cladding outside Bedroom 5.

 And here is what the painted finish will look like.
