Plaster's arrived and Wall Insulation

Great progress today.

Plaster was delivered, and man there is a lot of it.
The insulation has gone in the walls
Electrical appears to have been finished.

There are a few things that I will need to query tomorrow.  There was a section of wall that hadn't been wrapped between the walk in pantry and the brickwork that went up to the garage rear door.  Now with the insulation in place we thought that maybe they had done this, however no this is not the case.  Also there is still some wrap missing on areas of the wall that are quite high.  I saw a post about this on homeone that indicates that the wrap may not have been installed because they need scaffolding to get up to it.  Hopefully this is the case and this can be sorted when they put the scaffolding in to do the rest of the bricking.

Also they have added an ugly box and a little hook at the top of the gable over the master bed room. I had no idea what this was until we had a closer look.  It appears to be for our power line to the pole on the street.  Of course being an old developed suburb this is the way the power gets to the houses however no where in our documentation was this discussed.  Also our specification includes details of underground power cabling.  I will certainly ask the question as to why this was not placed on any of drawings and why we are not getting underground power.
