Going, going, gone!!!

We are a step closer to the build with the removal of our trees yesterday, the land looks much better and it is beginning to feel even more real that we should be starting site prep in less than 3 weeks (fingers crossed).


Here are some before and after pics for comparison:

Before, looking from the back of the block towards the front

Before, from the side of the block



After, from the front looking back

And the pile of sandstone:

A big shout out to Tyrone at Boss Tree Lopping in Waterford West, he and his team did a great job getting rid of the trees and at a much better price than the other company quoted.

Apparently while the trees were being removed and the sandstone blocks relocated a landscaping guy was noising a round the estate trying to “clear” some blocks of their sandstone piles to resell. He approached the trees guys and was politely told to leave our sandstone alone as it was staying!

A water tank is still on the list but we have a few more weeks before that will be needed.
