Hey team, Been a stalker of this excellent site for almost a year now, so thought I would start our thread now we have some movement at the station. Had a false start with one builder, but luckily we got out before they could make it any worse. We are building a customised version of the Dream Verona with Dreamstart. We have a 300sqm (10x30) block in Calleya Estate, Treeby (formerly Banjup). Will post a picture of a final plan shortly, but looking forward to documenting our construction journey Building permit was issued on 10 November 2016, so we are expecting siteworks to begin next week. I might actually cry with happiness when I see our tap installed. Always happy for input and advice from everyone! Enjoy your day.

Your tile & cabinet selections look very elegant & sophisticated. That kitchen splashback is gorgeous isn't it? I couldn't resist it either ? View thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=83776&start=80 |

Con-slab-ulations ?π How exciting. Did you do a slab dance? Wish i could help you with your question about the cracks. Hopefully it's nothing serious but you may want to flick an email to the clo asking about it. I had a question about brickwork & rochelle was very quick to respond with an info sheet about it View thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=83776&start=80 |

Congrats on the build, we took have been on here for a while but no thread of our own started yet - we are building with Redink which has not been without its dramas lately, but hopefully once the final drawings are in my hand we will start a thread. Just wanted to encourage you along the journey, this will be our 4th (2nd in WA) build. crazy I think but hopefully will be worth the pain. Cheers Ruth & Bob |

That's crazy!! You must be incredibly patient. Sorry to hear you're having issues, it really does dampen the whole process I think. Looking forward to your thread when you finally get the drawings!

Haha - would love to have seen you & your partner dancing around on the slab βΊ Glad to hear you've heard from your clo & ss. I didn't hear from mine until after the slab had gone down either. I did say i wouldn't be surprised if your house is at plate height by chistmasπ View thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=83776&start=80 |
