I am going to get an independent building inspector to inspect each critical stage of the building (hope to not have any trouble with getting them onto the site) I just don't trust them (wish i did) but reading all the reviews I'm not taking chances with any building mob! I don't get it if the whole building system was re looked at the government wouldn't need to give out incentives to young couples to build, people would want to. I hope it's all worth it at the end of the day cas it's sure been a bumpy unpleasant long *** ride! Re: Who is building with Beechwood 358Apr 17, 2011 9:47 pm acrebuild 1 - That's Great!! Hope thins keeps moving along for you guys. It will be great to watch things getting done! Well, according to the weather channel the upper hunter can expect good weather till Friday then it's rain on and off for the next week:( I'm sure BW will use this as an excuse to not give us a start date (up to 56 days tomorrow) but I will be phoning and emailing tomorrow in hope of some news. Fingers, toes and everything else I can manage are crossed. For everyone else I hope a few days of good weather sees things keep moving for you all! 20/4 - Earthworks 25/5 SLAB 9/6 Frame 21/6 Roof 5 - 22/7 Bricking 1/8 Gyprocking 16 - 18/08 Faulty Trusses repaired 17/08 Kitchen in 07/09 Tilers 15/09 Painters 30/9 Plumbers finished 7/10 Settled Re: Who is building with Beechwood 359Apr 17, 2011 10:20 pm Moon River Quote: But like everyone else I have seen that once they get started things seem to move pretty quickly Anywhoo......is'nt it a 24 week build? quote] Yep. 28 days to begin construction then 24 weeks of actual construction. Have been told that even though the construction hasn't begun (leaving 20 weeks left to build) the house should be done within that time. As you know it is a pretty big house so I guess we'll just have to see. Have noticed there are ALOT of people who follow this forum and never write a word. I can't help but wonder how many people have seen this and gone with another builder......... It's alot to deal with before you even start. 20/4 - Earthworks 25/5 SLAB 9/6 Frame 21/6 Roof 5 - 22/7 Bricking 1/8 Gyprocking 16 - 18/08 Faulty Trusses repaired 17/08 Kitchen in 07/09 Tilers 15/09 Painters 30/9 Plumbers finished 7/10 Settled Re: Who is building with Beechwood 360Apr 18, 2011 7:50 am I can't help but wonder how many people have seen this and gone with another builder.........

I have friends that sent in their plans to some local builders and the price was enormous.......looks like they are going with Beechwood also. They know what we have gone through, but in our area we don't have many big companies building like in the city areas, choice is limited. just starting Lake View Lodge - Beechwood deposit 17/08/09 Council April 10 signed contract 11/06 earthworks started 9/07 slab completed 8/09/10 Frames 21/09/10 bricking finished 13/10/10 roof 22/10/10 Gyprock 22/11/10 Tiles bathroom 21/12/10 Kitchen in 21/12/10 Painting 09/02/11 handover 11/03/11 We are in 15/03/11!!!!!!!! http://kathdom.blogspot.com/ go upvc window frames ensure insulation under colorbond. not just sarking, lighter color roof also not sure if you have seen this viewtopic.php?t=5823 last couple of pages… 4 111233 Even if it's not being sub-divided and you want to keep it as Torrens title, you will still need to talk to a town planner or Council themselves, to see if they will allow… 1 11326 |
