The Build
The Work | Planning Ahead

It all starts with an idea and an empty space... but quickly the Bricking It apartment starts to take shape.

Dr Phil makes plans
Planning Ahead
Weeks 1 to 3

Like all good building projects, it pays to plan ahead...


Even at this early stage Dr Phil is chasing up the delivery of materials plumbing and electrical materials they won't need on-site for weeks. The kitchen is already on order, even though we won't be installing it until Week 13.

Now that work is underway Dr Phil will re-assess which tradesmen and trainees are in which rooms. He wants to avoid congestion as far as possible.

A week-by-week count-down sheet is pinned in the trainees' social area. Deadlines are never far away.
