Where Do I Begin?

We are currently waiting for our plans to be approved by Council... how long does this take? The plans were submitted on 14 March 2013 so we just have to learn to be patient.

Good news. Kitchen Culture and Di Lorenzo quotes have been signed off. Kitchen Culture drawings took about six weeks (can't understand why?).  Di Lorenzo Hamilton  (thanks Marie) were really helpful . We ended up with bamboo flooring for half of downstairs which was we really wanted and the cost was not excessive. I put my trust in her for the kitchen splashback as I just couldn't picture how it would look.  And I hope the colour of the bamboo flooring (natural) will look good with the stairs which we will be a walnut stain. So fingers crossed it will all come together.

Now we have done everything on our side, we are waiting for Eden Brae to get back to us on the final PCVs - moving an external gas point, changing the layout of the laundry cupboard so we can get access to under the stairs for storage and the most important one, the design and costing of piers from the structural engineers as the house is 1.5 metres away from the sewer down the southern side.
