Mine were hinged. I think that costs more. What’s the difference lol

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has used EHI for their blinds and be willing to comment on the quality of their plantation shutters. Thanks. We did. Very happy with them. Look great. I used them for plantation shutters and they were great! Not cheap though. But I wanted the convenience so paid for it....

Hi all, Due to a bricklayer shortage apparently, our SS decided our roof tiles will go on first. Has anyone had it this way, roof tiles then bricks? Also, has anyone had to wait for bricklayers with an indefinite period? So far the build has been very quick, in 7 weeks from excavation, we now have ...

Congrats! What’s the feeling like?:) Any issues? Mixed feeling.... happy to have the house keys in our hands officially. Also feels daunting to unpack. Even though I have already moved 90% of kitchen stuff before hand. Feels great and over the moon to have Final OC and we don't have to wait to appl...

Hi Darth, The quote has to have it in writing that they install for you the patch panel and terminate to the patch panel. Mine says that so that’s the only thing I can think of. I guess it is kinda disappointing, when you expect what is a basic wiring job becomes an issue when a standard part of th...

We got keys! https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/65422_1532063009.jpg Congrats! What’s the feeling like?:) Any issues?

In our contract x number of data points was to supplied and installed. We would supply our own patch panel and comms rack. My understanding as part of the installation, data points will be terminated. Granted I supplied my own patch panel, which uses standard punch down tools. Does supplying your o...

Our build is nearing completion, we are building a Merriden 30. Construction started early Dec 2017 hopefully finish early Aug 2018. Having our walkthrough next week. Beside some misunderstanding with the hydraulic design and some building issues (mostly minor), things have being going fairly well,...

Oh ok :) the finishing line is nearly there :) My view is that once you move in there are lots of things to spend money on lol. I just finished setting up my home theatre. Next is outdoor furniture then a wine fridge to put under butler pantry bench. I don't have home theatre room so that's one les...

Hi k3nnis,They had to check again for storm water pit, and engineer who design it has to come by and check it himself. Now everything fine now but again delay was with the person who approve paperwork at private certify company. Now that we have finished landscaping ( apart from steppers and gravel...

Privacy wall for alfresco started. We still don't have interim OC. https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/65422_1531569152.jpg What’s stopping you from interim OC?

Hi k3nnis, Thank you very much. This is really helpful. i agree the blackbutt is too dark. I love what you have done with the garden! Bas Thanks bas. We spent quite a bit on the garden and retaining walls. Hope all goes well for you. When does your build start?

Mine was fairly large retaining walls and most landscapers come and quote but never end up getting back to me. I found one luckily who did a great job and fast!

Agree with you. Did you ask your SS when handover would be? Ie try to push them to get an answer? When did you demolish the house? We had demolished the house back in March 2016. But we moved out of the old house back in July 2015 :( Thinking every things will be smooth run with council and buildin...

Nice! I’ve never seen someone being able to move stuff in before handover :) lucky you haha. Lets just say I have decided to be pushy person now. I have been waiting very patiently for too long. So I have started to prepare for big move ( don't know when). The less I have to do on the actual moving...

Cool. Yeah you should have plenty :) My dining pendant has 20 globes lol.

Hahah yep. I have 3 pendants for island bench and a big pendant above dining table. I don’t regret having that many downlights :) Actually I could have one or two more but decided to save that $100 per downlight cost! Well I don't think you'll need to worry about adding more down the road. How many...

Nice! I’ve never seen someone being able to move stuff in before handover :) lucky you haha.
