Day 4: Tuesday - Slab Preparation
Pre-slab inspection due today. Passed inspection no problem.
Final preparation for the big pour tomorrow.
No rain is forecast, however, another very cold day.
Once again we've opted to Owner Build and Project Manage our second home liking the idea of selecting both material and trade contractor quality. This Blog describes our Journey as Owner-Builders on 2 Acres in a Semi-Rural Town in Victoria, Australia. It all starts with purchasing the land, building our Man Shed, Building our Home, growing landscape plants, designing and establishing our Garden.
