Termite protection

Today the termite group arrived. They need to install pipes on the beams where chemicals will be transported and dripping out to prevent termites under the house.
It's a bit scary with this chemicals, but this is how they do it when building houses and they tell it will not smell or cause any troubles.
The installation and three years of maintenance was included in the contract with the builder. After that the termite team will come and fill more in the pipes when I call them.

After installation they sprayed some chemicals on the soil between the beams.

Moving the Office

One of the first things that the team set up on the land was the small BIO (Building Inspector office). Now its time to dig here for the waste-water pipes and also the place where the parking should be set up. So the move was done this morning.

Roof - Part 2

The roof took three days. The put tiles both on the high roof and most part on the lower roof. They decided to wait with the part that is between the big and low part because the plastering work on the high wall could make the tiles very dirty and difficult to clean after. Another solution should have been covering the part, but that was not an option - they are the experts, so it's just to lean back and let them do what they want. Lats and lifting tiles. Some parts done Under the high roof Notice the security hooks and helmets (not?). Low roof Most ready now. The team will now wait for the plastering work on the outer walls on the high part and then its time to finishing up.

Arrival of the roof tiles

The roof tiles arrived today at 06.00 in the morning. No pallet, it looked like they have unloaded the truck manually. They delivered over 4000 tiles! One of the three piles of tiles delivered. Some broken due to the bad handling. Lintels in aluminum to hold the roof tiles. More lintels
