Neat wood before the cottage

No, the lady of the house has no surgical intervention can make. ;) But our carport was built last week. And otherwise it was a lot going on! On Tuesday, 14.09., we were almost back Viebrock craftsmen alert feeling. Outside, sparkled the factory carport people. Wardrobe, wall unit and coffee table were delivered and set up inside. In addition, the artist decided that we had committed to the stairs, but even on that day to cancel (was originally scheduled for Thursday). And we were also busily engaged in moving the laminate in the nursery. Our house was like a beehive again, grumbled the busy. :)

We have - as in a separate blog entry detailed reports - no carport off the shelf . This was not least because of our "half" can not be shed. Half shed, since it is next to the house and thus only half as wide as our carport. Originally, we had an L-shaped scales, and could have put great in the narrow piece of our bikes, but since we had indeed made a lip of the circular bar in the works.

can think then of course everyone that our carport had no standard price. However, we find the price is certainly not overpriced, but reasonable for the quality and features. We also had time to compare different providers and our choice fell on the, where we have to get the best service at the lowest price yet. Since we could not say no. :)

And the winner is:

We are happy the way for other reasons very happy to have no carport off the shelf and also that we have not even built :

The exhaust grille of the heat pumps are located right on the hill on which sits the cross beams under the roof of the carport. We had previously ascertained with Viebrock as much distance between the carport and the grids must be present and the carport roof then reduced accordingly . This in turn means that the shed has grown by 20 cm to the front here and then a small wall piece was inserted. This was the way spontaneously decided on the spot, because we would not have liked the option of additionally necessary beams.

struck the first construction in front of us one of the employees, but to integrate still a window in our shed . We weighed from, the price was very manageable, we would also shed light on ... so we decided spontaneously that. And * bang * we had a window. And the scale of this looks so much better!

also have used the two employees four days for the construction ! I would not know how long would it take for us. This makes it an easier time then still pay the extra cost to the product off the shelf.

Now for the images of the creative process . :)

On the first day, the foundation set . On the second day started really begins.

Day 2: The backbone stands.

Here you can already see, where our are shed .

view of the rear right shed post .

We not the usual H-beam in which the support material is applied externally visible on the wood, but with us the carriers disappear completely in the wood.

addition to this comes the pillars drainpipe of the carport down and is then connected to the green Pömpel. But this is not all rain water forced unused disappears, we can integrate a flap in the down pipe , so we still can set up a rain barrel.

And here's a view from above.

The two employees had to work long way in a really nasty drizzle and still had more good humor. Thumbs up!

At the end of the second day was even seen a bit roof.

On the third day * * tadaaaaa it looked much like finished carport .

Small is beautiful: Our shed. :)

also look like the roof extremely thanks to the wood paneling. :)

look at the back of the shed : The great window (with glass) is in it. The rear door was missing and was added on the fourth day.

As you can see, the scales manageable size.

But as we have now established you do see stuff under . The rest will disappear in the future garden shed. ;)

And here is another view on the roof and the EPDM foil .

On the fourth day, the work was then completed and could be obtained. :) Last weekend, then moved also father Paddy, in his capacity of a trained electrician and made sure that we have in the shed under the carport and light and power . Our home is always complete in all respects and therefore more livable.
And from the carport company we are really excited. All very nice and professional! And above all flexible and eager to offer the customer the best possible solution, even if you make a little change spontaneously.

the way, sorry Viebrock, but: The wood of the carport is it treated any better than the wood in our house. Even our carport, we must emphasize - for this we had again ordered a large bucket "Viebrock-color" - but maybe even less then a coat of paint necessary to cover the color right.

But back to Tuesday and furniture delivery . Laaaaange longed for, because we had already ordered the furniture from a three-quarters of a year.

The wardrobe is in the truest sense of the word force. ;) 3.60 m wide and 2.40 meters high with three sliding doors.

And it fits perfectly with the laminate. :) By the way, I wonder, despite additional bedroom dresser, how we should put all our stuff . :) What does it matter that we currently have plenty of cupboards. However, we have already two dresses for the car fetched attic. Is already fit. ;) "Fit"

On the subject of another small slot: our wardrobe, we have also set up in the meantime before. principle we find it totally great, because it has room for plenty of jackets. And at the edge are shoots, by which you can also hang scarves, etc.. Very practical.

Unfortunately, however, still theoretically only room for one of us.

And how nice that that's not all my jackets and scarves are. :) No, it does not count now. : P Of course, the Jackets only between parked and depending on the season, some just disappear into the attic and the stated car clothes.

If my mom reads this, they will probably think, and this reminds me of a a funny anecdote from the past "Typical!": In my parents' house, a large dressing room was available, I took you in fitting. Eventually, my mom complained that I should clean up your times, at the door would provide 10 jackets hang from me. Of course I was absolutely convinced that it grossly exaggerates. And then was taught when removing the jacket better. ;) (Paddy Note: Maybe I should take time to Rinas Mama ranting ...)

Back to delivered furniture. Unfortunately we experienced in our living wall is a disappointment : Almost all hanging fittings were not included, so it was not the wall units are mounted. Toll ... ... ... * mouth * They are waiting for so long and then something like this! In addition, you will at some point so just be ready. Now we will move and the cabinets have not hang , because of course the fittings are not in stock, but must be ordered directly from the manufacturer. * Grumble *

So here is the future unfinished living room scenario :

How To look like, hopefully soon.

What really annoyed me most is that we have been informed of the missing fittings as follows: We are now ready with the construction, but, oh yes, we still have come again, and that from and why.

We us would have wished that we would get sent directly to us than you noticed the lack of hardware. The staff can not do anything for this, but we were made more or less a fait accompli.

To make matters worse we then determines later that a table leg is totally scratched . However, the establishment of this center has already apologized and either the leg or the entire table changed. Us was right on the day after our complaint in writing. Go anyway. So we are waiting for not only the hardware but also on the new table. was

A funny situation there with the head of the carport company, the past looked like in between times to look after us and to our satisfaction to question . Also for this: thumbs up!

He saw our half-finished housing wall and said, half surprised that they so great for laminate fits, we would have really taken on all the details. Yes, nothing we have not even made a pilgrimage to the laminate pattern to the device center and kitchen studio. ;) If he had only seen how much great fit for the kitchen or laminate ...:) But even at that time was not there.

Now for the third "construction site" in the house, which was edited: The staircase came to life. Through his "color revival" in a rich berry tone . On what we can actually see us not be satisfied. :)

The color looks the way in part from easily spotted because they at that time was not quite completely dry. Meanwhile, everything is just beeeeeerig still beautiful. :)

The painter was really one of our best decisions. because he has really done the work for very little money, although he even cancel four times had! As he told us, well red and violets cover the worst, so you often need to emphasize three. And since we had as a background color of the sand can be applied that has a plaster-like structure, he had just repainting again. The work I would not even want to do again at this point!

Besides, we also do not have such a great design as he had.

Some people really have an adventurous job. ;)

War else? Oh yes: We have also worked before. : P We laminate the moment really can not see, we make it short.

The finished children :

And then edited hallway upstairs :

The skirting are now ready to cut and need only be placed on the wall.

All those who have already installed themselves in their little house laminate, remember well to how the situation feels like on the following image: Finally finished!

Worse is currently only the constant packing and cart to the house several possessions. For this Saturday we take a yes! I do not know how often I have said to various people that I soon just throw everything in a pile and light it. :) The wardrobe is in any case already well filled, the work we have already completely soon. The kitchen has now been now been completed and can also be given. And even in the bathroom romp has some supplies.

Oh yes ... our bathroom furniture is just grooooooooßartig . In the truest sense of the word. One day I stowed my shampoo and shower gel supplies. These are quite abundant there. (Note from Paddy: here should rant Rinas Mama times ...:))

If one now but this amount in the total context, which provides in relation to the size of the drawer , then yes sometimes a perfectly clear: Paddy never needs to shout again when I I wavered again as in the noise by dm-market my confidence. :) There's even room to grow. : D

And the nice thing: For Paddy's stuff is still space. * Hihi * only in the shoe closet ... because unfortunately that is an impossibility. But the house offers so much space that now Paddy gets his own. Yes, home rentals make you happy! ;)))
