Renovation by the river...

Not quite right

We have a 'pre-completion' inspection coming up, and so we've been taking a look around the place to try and pick up any issues, and, well we are trying to get quite a list. Like the doors to the balcony.

That is quite a gap, I'm pretty sure there is supposed to be some sort of tongue & groove type thing on one of the doors, but it doesn't look like it has been installed.

And then there is the plinth blocks. You see, downstairs (the original house) had these rather nice plinth block feature to the architraves. We quite like them, and to maintain consistency they are to be put in on the new arcs. So to make sure they got em rite, the site manager pulled of one of the original blocks back in December so that the timber fabricators had a template. And it worked well, they made an exact replica.

As you can see, the architraves for the new extension are different, they have a 30/60 camber, and the plinth blocks have a 60/30 camber - and well, it doesn't quite work.
