Well, we had unexpected progress today! Hubby came home at midday to find the tilers prepping for pavers and tile. They were told not to let dogs out by the supervisor, so they carefully shut the gate behind them, but didn’t replace the little bit of wire that stops the dogs from flicking the latch. Rookie error! Apparently it took them half an hour to find them. When they did, the dogs came straight to them and let them bring them home by their collars. Both were looking very guilty when hubby arrived home. I really appreciate them taking the time to find them and bring them home. Not street smart dogs at all. They are now fenced off for tomorrow so we don’t have a repeat incident. Hubby said the prep was quite a process. On top of the concrete shell they laid a wet bed of mortar, then a dry bed and another wet bed on top. Hubby said they were very particular. They also picked up our steps aren’t even (which we new but thought couldn’t be fixed now), so they will be fixing that for us too. Of course it rained after they left! Tomorrow should be clear. A little rain on Sat. then that should be it for the rain for at least a week. Electrician came by to take a look and was very happy with how everything has been prepared. The pool equipment will go on one new circuit and the heat pump another. He will come to do his work when the fence is going in as it needs to be bonded. Also getting some new down lights inside. He was lovely and very positive about how none of it would be a problem. All in all a productive day for a change.
