Okay, so they aren't brilliant, and we still have shit everywhere, but people have been asking to see what we've built, so here you go. Inside is still too much of a mess to show you!
In case you are starting to get Block Envy, note that our friends will be building on that patch of dirt next door. There will be 4.5m between us (enough for sun to penetrate our lower windows in winter) and we'll share the backyard.

Well... what can I say? The design of your house is really unique. The paint was really well done, along with the roof and even the windows.
Not bad for a house design. This is the first time I've seen that kind of roof. And is your house, by any chance, shaped like a human's head?
Lovely, what is the cladding?
Our cladding is Carter Holt Harvey shadowclad - overlaid in some sections with undressed radial sawn battens.
There's also zincalume on some of the highly exposed parts and round the back.
The zincalume and battens are travelling nicely, but the shadowclad has bowed more than I am happy with. I'm watching carefully and we may consider a warranty claim. I would consider Weathertex products if I were going round again.
