Drab to fab - Renovations Update

There has been so much going on at my house for the past week; especially yesterday (being the Ekka Show holiday). We got the solar span patio roof installed with plumbing and electricity put into it. The plumbing went in the house (but no hot water as we have to move it and it got turned off so we can do that). At least I can wash my hands now and get water to drink. The weekend we painted with the undercoat of most of the main living area. I have to do all the cutting in and then we do the defects then paint a second undercoat, then the colour (That's how it is done on multimillion dollar houses; no quick sprays here)

The air will flow over the roof and under the patio cooling it in summer
