So amazing you even picked it up at all as from what I've seen on some other jobs they come back and cover them pretty quickly. Great work keeping on top of it! Thanks cat, I was worried that they may not change to correct pipes size and let it pass. All storm water pipes and sewer pipes are already cover up after pipes were laid. They will have to dig again. This was one of the major design changed for storm water layout which our council demanded on the Modification DA that the pipe starting from the garage grated drain must be 150mm diameter to the detention pit So from our point of view the correct size of pipe must be implemented by plumber.... The reason why the council demanded for 150mm larger size drain is prevent over flow as the rain water from the street and our drive way flow down towards garage and neighbouring. our Hydraulic Engineer required to calculate once in 100 years rain storm hence the larger pipe to accommodate excess rain water to our detention pit which join to neighbour's detention pit (which has the 150mm pipe size to the Sydney's drain channel - three houses away). Tomorrow I will be watching like a hawk. Build Thread : viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81624 Re: KDR Sekisui House - St George 399Feb 10, 2017 10:05 pm Changes keeps on coming. First the door and window frames supplier changed. Secondly roof tiles supplier changed. Got our roof tiles complimentary upgrade. Now we got a call from colour consultant informing CHANGE OF SUPPLIER for all bathroom's vanity unit top and mainly kitchen's island bench top / cook top . Should I say "yay" Of course I do wanted "them" to change supplier for kitchen bench top as I was not quite happy with my current choice of colour stone "Osprey" as i have one ...right here where I live. Oh man the one I have now sure gets dirty easily. The time of great opportunity open doors to change colour again with out paying $1000 admin fees. YEE HA !!!! Ok the new supplier is SILESTONE, we have an appointment on 14 Feb to reselect stone benchtop. Consultant has selected couple of colours for us to compare from our previous Caesarstone selection. I think I will have to wisely use my weekend and check out Silestone's colours.
