Quotations, quotations....

We have quotes in for the rest of the work that needs to be done to complete, and time-scales as to when it can be done as well. Reverse cycle air conditioning is a must have here in Adelaide..it doesn't get that cold here but it does get bloody hot, so that will take care of that nicely. I've had a few quotations in, but there is one guy that seems to be on the money as far as I'm concerned anyway. He came recommended from our friends at Bici Patisserie around the corner on Hutt Street (plug plug plug...gorgeous coffee and cakes), and he seems very knowledgeable, and does his own installations too. Then there's the solar system to help pay for it running 24/7/365. I have a few quotes out there for a 10KW system, and talked to heritage about where we can have the system set upon the roof and where we cant have panels, and we have enough space to do that with ease.. 

I've had quotes in for supply of beds and furniture for the rooms, were going to go with king size singles for a bit more room for the clients. Carpet has been quoted for the rear counselling room, and the new kitchen and laundry non slip floor goes in tomorrow. Rugs for the rooms and runners for the hall are being looked at later this week.
 
That took up a whole day with a gaggle of people coming in to sort that out at various times, so I am glad that most of that is done. The quotes that have been requested so far should all start to hit my in-box this week. The plastering work to the façade of the building starts this morning, and will be three weeks before it is finished. Then the pointers and the painters will be in to finish that all off after that. All the relevant development applications and heritage funding applications are in. Site meeting with the council and the plasterers this morning, and then I can scurry off to college to finish a unit of my Counselling Diploma. Phew!
