I've seen builds on here that only last 12 weeks and that's from site cut so I think it's doable GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: {dawn} Custom 3bdr /16sq home - Week ?? 688Feb 16, 2017 6:57 pm All depends if there are any delays with any of the tradies. Everything needs to be done for pci, so i think it will be a little longer than 5 weeks.

Sounds like the delay in getting started after Christmas was due to no available painter...

This week we have had plumbing and electrical fit off, hot water service installed, fly screens installed and flooring completed. All in a week. All we need done is mirrors, shower screens, garage door and a good clean. We are hoping for PCI this week but haven't got a date yet. 5 weeks is defiantly doable. Our house is 18sq. Re: {dawn} Custom 3bdr /16sq home - Week 21 696Feb 18, 2017 8:17 am That's great news!!! XD I'm feeling confident they could do it, just a matter of IF they will I guess. Can't wait for the new house... my boy seems okay so far, and he needs to get into new environment quick smart. Re: {dawn} Custom 3bdr /16sq home - Week 21 697Feb 19, 2017 7:51 am Did you visit your house this weekend? So glad to hear your boy is ok!!

They were making good progress, from what I could see they've done a coat or two at least in every room. Didn't see any other obvious changes except for paint. Due to rain and the fact house was full of people we didn't stay long... just had a quick peek and left, only one photo.. This is Master Bedroom The windows were open and no flyscreens yet, so snuck the phone through the window Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Rooms definitely feel bigger!!! Can't wait to get back inside and see it all. I'm pretty happy with the colour, not too white, not too grey, not yellow XD The inside is White on White and ceiling is Builder's white. They had painted the front door and the sidelight surround blue. I didn't realise the surround would be painted the same colour as the door, but should look good once its done. I will have to pop down next weekend I think, see the finished painting and hopefully tiling started. I work with owner, he/she is my man on the ground and I instruct them when to visit the site and take photos and I have other tools in the bag. 4 15258 I am in the same situation, would you be able to give some insights in to this?
