I've had no issues at all so far. He's on the ball and gets back to you quickly. How is yours? Got my next appointment tomorrow though I think the only change is the driveway dug out. The front still needs bagging and we have no carpet or appliances yet though I'm told that comes at the very end. Mine is terrible at communication but has got on top of most mistakes very quickly. And I say most because there has been gutter needed to be replaced since it went in and I'm still waiting for my rangehood to be replaced - 5 and a half weeks later. Carpet does go in late but should be before PCI and appliances usually go in at the very last minute. Good luck with your viewing tomorrow. Can you do my a favour and get a picture of your skylight? I want to see what yours looks like so I can start thinking about the style of skylight to get in my bathroom. Thanks. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 191Apr 25, 2013 9:44 pm Hi. Sure can take a pic of the skylight for you tomorrow. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 192Apr 25, 2013 9:45 pm Hi. Sure can take a pic of the skylight for you tomorrow. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 195Apr 26, 2013 2:32 pm The skylight looks great Louise. That's exciting - your almost done. Not too long now. My mirrors went in today, one shower went in (the other was partly there, so there must have been something wring with it) and some new pavers arrived to fix the driveway. I spoke to the paver person and he said paving definitely happening on Monday. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 196Apr 26, 2013 4:40 pm That is good news... Full steam to the finish line! Louise ... Love the skylight... I was thinking half way through my build about one in the kitchen area, as it doesn't have any window nearby... It was too late when I suggested it. Maybe something post handover if I feel theres not enough natural lighting. Built a Hawthorne 31 with EB nessjeffdreamhouse.blogspot.com.au Building an investment now with New Living homes... We are at nearly finished... Just landscaping and driveway to go! Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 197Apr 26, 2013 8:57 pm Hi, Dearheart. Do you mind me asking how long your rumpus is from your kitchen sink to the back wall of the house? Hi, 1sttimebuilding. I never realised how good skylights could be. Beats putting the light on! Did anyone consider getting solar panels? Louise Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 198Apr 26, 2013 10:01 pm Hi Louise, The rumpus is 4470 deep. Not the biggest room ever but adequate for my media room. I didn't think about getting solar panels with EBH at all. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 199Apr 27, 2013 6:48 am Hi, Dearheart. Our rumpus is only 3.5m deep and our family room 4.3m deep. It's the only part of the house I wish was a but bigger. But again, no recommendations from EBH and I'm not an architect. Re: Eden Brae - My First Home The Lawson 24 200Apr 27, 2013 8:27 am Sorry, just rechecked the measurements. The family room is 4.7m deep. The theatre is 4.3m deep. I built with EB back on 2009.
