PCI Inspection was completed last week. Both us and the Independant Inspector are overall pretty happy with the house. There are some paint issues that will be fixed, and a few bumps and scratches to address, but nothing major reported. Not long to go now! https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/75181_15271...

Nice colour choices Seren1ty. Looking schmick!!!

No worries :-D It's hard to pull it back, we ended up needing to drop about 20K to get it to a not so eye watering amount. I had to try to control my husband more so than me, he was like Oprah at the internal selections "upgrades for everyone!!!" Before I call the council hoping you might...

What I read is major developments that add additional capacity to the area. I doubt your KDR is impacted., beside you p...

SS met me onsite today to install extra noggins for wall hanging our dryer and TV. He has also addressed all the items from our 3rd Pre-lining Inspection report, which we got back yesterday. Our gyprock installation is also due to start this week. Here are some shots following the completion of Air...

Coming along nicely and good idea on the extra support. we have the supporting timber for the dryer and TVs already.

Thanks mate... Great tips. I have heard there are companies that give you an estimate and buy your fitting and fixtures and rip them out before demolition day. I might look into that also. Put some recent pics Seren1ty :)

Hey kjane, We organised our own demolition. We got about 4 quotes. The company we ended up using, Macarthur Excavations, was recommended by H&H, but the reason we chose them was they simply turned out to be the best to deal with. The quote was higher than yours, but was for a 4 bedroom, and als...

Seren1ty, we are close to our demolition and keen to know what you did with your house before demolition? Did you adver...

Brick layers are almost done! Was great to have them back onsite after only a short Christmas break. Next is eaves and downpipes, then the scaffolding can come down so they can complete the lower roof. So not long before they'll be inside and out of the weather, which considering the heat/rain rece...

WOW....Coming along nicely Seren1ty... Did you say you were building the Elyse?

Our frames are currently on their way up. Our neighbours have been commenting on how energetic the builder is, moving through each stage with almost no breaks. No complaints from us! The weather has been great of late, and they're making the most of it. Frame is due to complete next week, and brick...

Thanks Seren1ty, I am sure there will be some changes for us too, although I haven't seen a selection booklet for the 'premium' upgrades like other builders. At this stage we just getting the Butler Pantry and the Walkins upstairs plus a Balcony off the Rumpus. AllyBrian - Thanks for the feedback on...
