<\/a><\/p>\nI hadn’t been told to expect anything although I’ve been waiting for the floor levelling screed to be laid for over a week so I expected that the delivery was of the materials for that. I was under the impression though, that a special machine with a pump is used for that which arrives on site with the material already contained in it as it’s fairly liquid.<\/p>\n
Here’s what I saw when I checked on what had been dropped off.<\/p>\n
When I took a closer look, although the packaging had been enclosed in waterproof plastic I could see the writing and codes on it. The maker’s name was Parexlanko and the product was Monod\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n That didn’t mean anything to me until I did a search on the internet, which made everything clear. These bags contained the material for the ‘Cr\u00e9pi’, the special plaster that will be applied to the outside of my house. I spotted the code ‘R20’ printed on the bags and when I did a more detailed search I came up with the following colour chart and sure enough, R20 corresponds to the colour that I selected for the walls of my house.<\/p>\n The square on the colour chart is a bit small to get an impression of how the house will look so I created the following image.<\/p>\n Allowing for the colour variation that any screen on which the image is viewed will be subject to, it gives a pretty good indication of what the colour of the house will be. It’s called ‘Sable Rose’ and when I chose it I was a bit concerned that it might be a bit too pink but now I see it again I’m a lot happier.<\/p>\n I’m wondering if this delivery means that the ‘Cr\u00e9pi’ will be applied before the floor screed goes down but I think not. I’ve got a suspicion that the screed will be laid right after the Easter break and while it’s being allowed to cure for a few days the builder will take the opportunity to do the ‘Cr\u00e9pi’. It would make sense but stranger things have happened as everyone knows by now \ud83d\ude15<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As I was going up to check on my post this morning I was surprised to hear the sound of a truck engine.
