The cabinetmaker began installing the final kitchen benchtops last Friday, only to find that one of them did not have the required bevelled edge treatment on both sides. Further frustrations as this one had to be sent back yet again for rectification. It arrived back here this morning but plumber must make an extra trip to fit in sinks and tapware.

Furniture also arrived this morning and the suppliers have been busy setting it up, side stepping between the builder and the plumber at times.

The last of the hydronic heating panels and the boiler unit have been installed. We have selected a combined heater towel rail in the bathroom, saving space and heating towels at the same time.
