Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2201Feb 08, 2017 3:34 pm kylz4 Now need to work out our balustrade for balcony! Piers look too short, and I mentioned it to sm months ago but he said glass would come higher than piers and the metal pole that runs behind the glass would connect to timber post instead of pier. After checking plans the pole is supposed to attach to pier and the pier is supposed to be higher than glass. SM told build advocate that the plans were updated to what he had told us but we've never signed off in anything!!! No rest fir the wicked hey! Lol Haha love it, demand a copy to see if you signed!! Just for a laugh Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2202Feb 08, 2017 3:41 pm Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Supposed to be like that! As you can see pier sits quite a bit above glass. Considering pier is only up to my hips I don't think it's right!!! Will look crap if they try and extend pole over to timber post instead of making piers higher!!! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2203Feb 08, 2017 3:46 pm Yup you have the same issue as mine but with both piers. The brickies measured the height of the piers incorrectly (from the ground) instead of from the slab height. It's a major issue so the brickies need to come back. Also, the scaffold needs to come back for the brickies to do the work. See my earlier post on this issue. @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2204Feb 08, 2017 3:48 pm kylz4 Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Supposed to be like that!

Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2205Feb 08, 2017 3:48 pm Yes we just worked out last night what has caused the issue, brick height from ground which is quite a bit below slab! Wish he'd listened earlier when I said it when scaffolds were still up!!!

Plus the current height of piers is a safety issue as its very low..... no climbing over pls.... @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2207Feb 08, 2017 4:00 pm kylz4 Yes we just worked out last night what has caused the issue, brick height from ground which is quite a bit below slab!

So exciting seeing all my neighbours on fixing Stage. Makes us even more excited waiting for our turn. Our recent inspection has slowed our progress a bit. They need to do some rectifications but apart from that our inspector said overall it is a good build to date solar panels are up and heating ducts all installed. Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2210Feb 11, 2017 4:20 pm Thanks Emmz, I agree, 100 times better Just noticed looking at pics that they have put the heat controller for zone 2 in the study instead of where we had requested it! Not sure if they'd even be able to move that now!!?? Don't know why they put it where they wanted to That's great there were only a few things picked up at inspection Emmz, I'm sure your SM will be all over it and get it fixed asap for you and then you'll know your house is perfect Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2211Feb 11, 2017 4:58 pm kylz4 Thanks Emmz, I agree, 100 times better Just noticed looking at pics that they have put the heat controller for zone 2 in the study instead of where we had requested it!

Our consultant placed ours in study which zoned bed 4,5 and study and other control is leisure, 2,3. I remember I asked same question but it's linking to those areas. But double check if your unsure. Yes so true, and reassurance when they check our next stage they re-inspect those areas Waiting for our next stage in the build.

Just been arguing with hubby, I think it probably works better in study anyway as that room will be used daily, he wanted it out in hallway area but I said to get up to heat in there study would end up too hot! Thoughts?? Thanks re white cupboards, I love all white kitchens can't wait to see it with the floorboards to add some warmth How small does it look from the family window haha Thanks RegVic!!
