breaking ground


Hooray! It's the start of our new home.

With high hopes of beginning before Christmas, we were told in December that we would start last week. Unfortunately the builder could not coordinate the start date with Sydney Water *sigh*, therefore works commenced today.

So what are we looking at? The new house is to be positioned over an underground sewer line. This means digging down to locate the line, replacing the old pipe, encasing the new pipe in concrete and covering it over to make way for the new house foundations. It's hard to tell from the picture but the pit is around 2m deep.
