Re: Building our dream home.. walls no longer bare! 19Dec 13, 2007 9:08 pm Quote: Our build is going nowhere fast but the bet is still on!! Builder told us yesterday that we may not have our slab by Xmas <surprise, surprise > Hope you have a Xmas slab party!! Our bet is definitely still on! It's gonna make this forum exciting.. hehe. We're not really sure whether we could get a slab before Christmas. We went to the block today.... saw nothing changed! A bit disappointed. Don't know what's next after plumbing. Probably what they did for the day wasn't really obvious for us I just wonder why our CSCC (Customer Service Co-ordinator - Construction) doesn't give us any schedule of building works. I was hoping to receive an update at least... Am I asking too much? Also, we have a free 32" TCL LCD (as part of the promo) TV that, according to our contract, is ready for delivery once we commence building. We asked our CSCC when we could have it delivered....... she said once the promo ends. There is nowhere in the contract it was mentioned that we would get it once the promo ends! My mum is waiting for it.. as we have an old 51cm TV in our unit We rang our CSCC today, emailed her (last week), and even left a message on her answering machine. But she didn't return our calls. Anyway, still happy that we commenced building on time and hopefully have a slab b4 Christmas..... we just want our TV!!!!!!!!! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Built the Nevada 42 Next project - landscaping!

After 7 working days (9 calendar days) since site start, this is how our block looks..... LHS is where the garage will be Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ RHS will be our home theatre Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ L-shaped near the meter box is where the pergola post will be erected Can somebody tell me at what stage our house is in now? I was looking for the deep excavations that others in this forum had (in preparation for the slab) but I haven't seen it... wonder if I missed it and wasn't able to take photos? Or is it because we have different slab? Ours is H slab. According to our CSCC, last day of building works will be on Friday (21st) and will re-commence on the 7th of January, but site manager will be back a week after (14th of January). You reckon we could still get the slab before Christmas? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Built the Nevada 42 Next project - landscaping! DIY, Home Maintenance & Repair to do it properly you need to dig out the garden and waterproof the outside of the wall.
