Bask in the Splendour of our Render

It was a really miserable day, raining quite hard at times. My hopes of finding much activity at the house were not that high. Sure, I was expecting something to happen inside, and I wasn't disappointed in that respect - our internal fit-out carpenter had been started a couple of days before, and it was a seemingly long process to get all of the architraves, skirting & shelving completed (there was quite a bit of fiddly work to be done).

When I arrived I was shocked. Our render had been completed! And it was raining all day! It was one of those moments when I wanted to shout out, do the Toyota jump, and call everybody I knew with the exciting news! But I didn't. I have neighbours to consider, and I didn't want to give them the impression (too early on) that I have potential to be that "crazy lady" across the street/next door/with the cats etc. 

I'm probably already known as that crazy lady who visits her house every day to take photos.

We were really impressed that the render wrapped around inside the garage - we love the level/quality of finish that Coral provides

The render wraps around the side of the house. Unfortunately it was too short on one side. We emailed our Site Supervisor, and it was fixed the very next day (see how the repair is slightly darker? It wont matter as it will be painted)

We wanted to see what our render colours looked like, so we brought over our samples that we painted up during our decision-making process. We just HAD to hold them up against the house.

The columns will be Dulux Melville Island
The remainder of the render will be Dulux White Duck
