Installing House Cladding: My Honest Emotions

The cladding is starting on our house build. And wow, I've been feeling the stress of it now! We're waiting for the corrugated cladding to arrive plus the wooden ply cladding is not working out. Hayden has been doing an amazing job.

    I hate to say it Dear Lady. Don't move in till the inside is almost all complete. Hayden is so right about that. and dust would be only a small part of the issues about moving in way too soon. It is looking so nice and will be a fine little home, just try to be more patient. it will be worth it in the long run. Take care of your selfs gang. Thanks for sharing.

    Patients will make life better for everyone. I lived in a house that was being worked on because we didn't have another place to live, and for sure Hayden is 100% correct! The dust and constant moving of things to finish the job, not only made it take longer, but my kids always had congestion from all the dust, it was a nightmare.

    You are so very fortunate that Hayden is building your house. You/he will know exactly how everything is put together and you will have far better quality. Count your blessings.

    You are right Ruth my partner left me having screwed up the plumbing and much more to do. I have rolled my sleeves up and accepted that I need to finish it where I can. I would give anything for a kind reliable partner to assist me. Birdy

    Yes it’s stressful but if you move in before it’s finished it won’t make the finish happen quicker you just need a hold up of any material and that’s will make your stress go through the roof. Better just wait it out you’ve waited all this time and when it’s finished and walk in for the first time it will be all the more enjoyable.

    Patience is a virtue. The best thing you can do is give Hayden the room to properly finish the house. It won’t be long now, so try to relax and enjoy the progress.

    Hang on in their, your heading into summer so the van kitchen won't seem as bad. Better to get all the bits done before moving in and having to try and work around extra clutter. House is looking amazing 👏

    Hang in there Karen Ive just gotten through a big renovation on our house after living 5 years with a temporary kitchen and builders props holding up the ceiling! We were living in our bedroom washing dishes outside in the freezing cold cooking in any space we could. Taking showers in a bathroom that was being renovated using a composting toilet and eventually a toilet with no door 😄 and just when I thought I couldnt take anymore we turned a corner and it was crazy how quickly it was finished. I am now living peacefully and calmly in my newly renovated home and the kitchen is a dream come true I have my first ever dishwasher Im 60 hahaha. Its an absolute joy to come home these days after years of dreading and enduring. You can do it take each day as it comes and my best advice is learn to let go quickly if something that you planned or wanted hits a brick wall let it go and look for the alternative it helps to keep the project on track time and budget wise. 🙂

    Hun your baby will still need to be needy no matter what house your living in. Just be thankful you have a house, a lot of people will never have one. I think you need to stay more positive and count your blessings. If you do that all will be fine. God bless.

    One day (in the not too distant in the future) you’ll be standing in your new kitchen and wonder how you ever managed without it. However, Haydn’s right about not moving in too quickly. It’s so much harder to complete a build with household stuff and small children in the way. It’ll be worth the wait, you’ll see.

    Great to see the progress. Not easy when u have a little one to mind. I think if u can don’t move into dust. Wait a Wk or 2 and Hayden will go as fast as he can. Hopefully you’ll get some nice weather to make things easier. Well done.
