Hi all, Newbie here! We in VERY early stages of our build, have placed our deposit on our land in QLD and have shopped around for houses, Metricon was the highest price by far, however when we asked them if they could do better and showed them our quotes from other builders, they quickly came in wel...

Hi guys, can anybody please explain the "tender" to me and how long does it take to get to this stage? Sorry if i sound so in the dark! Cheers

Does anybody know how much the sarking was for QLD builds?

Wow so expensive!! Thanks guys for the update. Also, I feel like I have so many questions!! But is anyone going external for the driveway and porch/fence? And if so who did you go through, did you save a lot of money?

Thanks so much guys, we decided to go with the extra wall insulation and the sarking. So hopefully it's worth it in the end!! We have also taken out our driveway and will do the driveway/fencing/landscaping ourselves. Has anyone upgraded the following items: - bigger shower head - niche in shower - ...

Hi Homeone! Just wondering if there are any people out there building with valeco homes? Haven't been able to find too many builds on here with them. :)

Hey! Floor plan looks great. Love the corner stackers. We are also building with Valeco, building a smaller house, originally Morton 24, but have made changes also. Exciting to see how your corner stackers turn out as we are also having them! When do you start to build?

Hi Stacey! I love your colour selections. We are also building with Valeco! Will definitely be following along!

Stacey, Do you have a list of the builders range carpet that valeco supplies? Thanks

Awesome news Lanabananah, hope you start a thread so we can follow your progress with you! I'm also a sucker for colour selections!

By far one of her favourite things about it house, and surprising they came as standard to our plan. Am just thinking about window coverings.. I don't think the standard roller blinds will do them justice! I will start my own thread soo also, just waiting on full working drawings to come back. Can't...

Hi Stacey! I love your colour selections. We are also building with Valeco! Will definitely be following along! Hi Bree!! Thank you! :) Yay!!! Welcome to the Valeco club! haha What stage are you up to at the moment?) :) We are having our full working drawings done at the moment, finance is approved...

Looking good Stacey, love your walk in pantry space and super handy to have looked at your electrical plan, will be referencing back to at some point for the downlights! Also did anyone else see today that solar panels are now a standard inclusion with Valeco?

I think we should make this the Valeco general thread. There seems to be quite a few of us that have popped up now and would be good to have the one spot for general topics as the builds go on. I think that's also a good idea!

sounds good :) How are you going with yours gr8ly? Anything new happening? Been to colour selections yet?

sounds good :) How are you going with yours gr8ly? Anything new happening? Been to colour selections yet? im a bit slack with my own thread... a lot to report. Yes we had our colour selection, we are just waiting to see how much extra its all going to cost. Makes me anxious. We are going a black en...

Awesome! Super excited for all these Valeco builds!

What bathroom tiles did you choose for your black ensuite? This is kinda inspiration for it... also our feature wall in the shower. The floor tiles and other walls will be touchstone nero rectified polished porcelain. It's basically a sparkly gloss black. https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/77635_150141...

Awesome stuff! I love a dark ensuite. We are having the same trouble at the moment, developers design specifications are very specific (sigh[emoji20]) we are choosing the moon dust bricks with off white mortar, but.. wanting a dark monument roof or something to contrast against the light colour. De...
