Zero lot usually means you CAN build to the boundary if you need. We have a Zero lot boundary and we are 1300 off it

Do you have it in writing that the stormwater could not be done until after handover? If so the builder is responsible for the site until handover and this includes stormwater flow as a temporary solution. I am assuming you are talking about the water coming off your roof, if not you'll need to expl...

There is a difference between the homeowner doing stormwater after hand over and the builder putting in temp stormwater. The builder is still required to use temporary stormwater drainage, as an owner you aren't allowed onsite to install anything until after handover so the builder still needs to ru...

Good afternoon guys I have a quick question for you. I got a call from our neighbour to be today claiming that his house has been flooded because of our build. Our build is at lock up stage and we haven't done stormwater as we are planning on doing this ourselves after the build (to save money of c...

I bought this up with our builder - Coral when we were building. They do not cover any owner supplied fixtures or appliances. Also you cannot get insurance for these good separately as it gets too messy if someone leaves the door open etc, who is responsible. Our good were installed 2 weeks prior to...

Oh thats cool. Did you have to chase them up to get that credit or did they do it automatically? Sorry missed this one. Yes we had to follow it up and it went for review to head office however our wording was different to their standard wording for fencing.

Glad to here that some are actually having a positive experience. At the end of the day it mostly comes down to the SS. If he is reasonably competent and not overloaded with overseeing to many builds, things should in theory go ok... after all these are project homes. Unfortunately ours has been a ...

We got the full amount back for not having fencing.

I want to lose it at someone I'm so angry! But also don't want to *** off my ss already lol Call Metricon and tell them you will bill them storage charges unless they move their sh!t or you will hire someone to move it and bill them but you will not be responsible for any damage.

Hi I am building a new house in Brisbane, just finished the frame. We have 5 bedrooms, 1 study and 1 home theater. I really need help with the data points and NBN installation please. I just got a Quotation from my builder for data as following. I don't know much about this, so could you please tel...

Hi everyone, I would like to ask if you guys have any idea what type of soil are there in stage 9 at willowdale. Tender will only include M type, if it turns out to be H, how much roughly is the additional cost. Thanks in advance. You can opt to have the tender letter include the upgrade of a slab ...

Ours was: 5% Deposit 10% Base 15% Frame 35% External Lining 20% Fixing 15% PC Bash: Your guide to whats fair adds up to 110%

I tried to take a photo but it was hard with the sun.. but you can kind of see what the issue is. All the lumps and bumps of the MDF doors show up really really badly with black paint. They prepped them and came back twice to fix them up but they just don't look good [emoji20] http://uploads.tapata...

I just realised that we wont have any powerpoints on our actual island bench in the kitchen.. I will have one down the bottom on the far side for vacuum but where would you put it so you could use say an electric frypan? We removed our microwave space from the island and replaced it with a pull out...

SO GOOD. Makes life a lot easier and means we didn't have to have white patches on our wood grain laminate.

We put 13 in. We did media, office and activity room for the kids in the future. I also put one on the ceiling for a central Wireless access point. 90% of domestic gadgets are WIFI now, even security cameras can be wifi unless you need PoE.

How does everyone bring up issues when your technically not meant to be on site? https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=80908 I didn't care and raised issues. Our SS never said anything

Yeah that makes sense..... So do they take the $66 off the $78 for the ones included? My dad is so shocked they charge that much just for a batten!!! No, so in your plan you will assigned a single batten per room and that is usually included in the base price of the house, remove it and you don't g...
