They will do a tile service once scaffolding is all down and replace any cracked ones. Not sure what happens if it rains before then Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 65Mar 18, 2017 4:39 pm kylz4 Looking good!! They will do a tile service once scaffolding is all down and replace any cracked ones. Not sure what happens if it rains before then Thanks Kylz4. Good to know they will fix the tiles without a push from me. Brisbane did storm heavily yesterday. Water has ponded around my slab and everything outside is wet. But there is no leak inside. I think it's because of the Sarking.

It's such a roller coaster of emotion to see the progress. M has installed stairs. Love the open thread. It let's so much light through from the back.

But they did not install the door handle. Realised it after I shut the door to take the picture. Had to get out of window onto the scaffolding and climb down ? This is probably why M discourages you from visiting your site without a supervisor. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Some damage to the front door sill from the heavy rain yesterday.

I wish I thought if that. Always wanted an aquarium build inside the wall. Looking good. Progressing well. Our Metricon Merricks 38 71Mar 26, 2017 4:55 pm Slight progress this week. Seems we will reach Finishing progress payment milestone by the end of March. Tiles was delivered. Met with tiler on site to go over the plan. Good thing because he hasn't been able to get the tile layout plan from SM so I gave him my print out. The smart tiles installed in all wet areas. He has also levelled the wet floor area floors with cement.

Your house looks amazing. And don't worry you can't go wrong on a white kitchen. Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 73Mar 30, 2017 2:33 pm Hi NabeelC, Watching your build intently as my wife and I are in the pre-lim contract stage for a Merricks 37 to be constructed over the road at Augustine Heights! Love everything you've chosen so far! We're a little jealous as our budget just doesn't allow for a lot of the stuff you've selected! Good luck; shame about that cyclone but hopefully doesn't affect your build too much! Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 74Mar 30, 2017 7:42 pm GMN_Merrick37 Watching your build intently as my wife and I are in the pre-lim contract stage for a Merricks 37 to be constructed over the road at Augustine Heights! Love everything you've chosen so far! We're a little jealous as our budget just doesn't allow for a lot of the stuff you've selected! Good luck; shame about that cyclone but hopefully doesn't affect your build too much! Good to find another building a Merrick and just over the road too. Would love to follow your build. Good thing about Merricks 37 is the use of space above the garage to make the bedroom size bigger. Merricks 34/38/42 doesn't have anything above the garage. Got a letter this week from M claiming 10 days extension due to rain in March. Guess today's cyclone will result in another extension.

They must be out collecting fences today because they took mine away too, hehe. Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 78Apr 13, 2017 9:42 pm Looks great. At least you know when your locked out. It's getting close. Specially if they installed the front door viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 79Apr 22, 2017 10:24 am Hi Nabeelc , your facade coming nice looking forward to see when it is complete. would you mind to share how much M charged for butt window? And how much was upgrade cost of stairs with glass bal (what was the credit and how much is the new stairs with glass). thanks. Re: Our Metricon Merricks 38 80Apr 22, 2017 2:20 pm The corner butt window was $2475. Not credit for window as the original facade doesn't have the corner butt window. The stair was $12210. No credit as the description said 'in lieu of standard'. My stair is open risers with closed stringer with square nosing profile. Rebated glass and MET6 downturn handrail. The same stair with steel balustrade instead of glass was 10K. The same stair with open stringer was quoted as $16K.
