N2N - i think you should keep fighting your case. it does seem unfair that something has been put in, and no one has pointed out to you that its not very suitable. Im slowly trying to get back on track after we have moved in. there has been so much going on, trying to clean other house for leasing, ...

J - you e got some nice upgrades. But agree it will be big big big $$$$ we hardly upgraded anything in kitchen. Added overheads, waterfall edges, cabinet over fridge, 600 wide cutlery drawer, bulkhead on over heads and it was $7500 mainly because of waterfall 20mm stone. Stone in ensuite was just ov...

Bandie - Very unsure of the charge to move your box though. im really confused as to why they would be charging you? final plans haven't been drawn up yet? its it the position of the metre box out the front that is making them put it on that side? What floorplan are you guys building? Amazingk -Our ...

Jules - thats an awesome suprise for the girls! funny how the kids always get excited about being able to choose bedrooms. Grande - lucky you did follow up! i think thats the key, if i hadn't heard anything for a few days i was on the phone or email wanting to knwo why. and tehre were some instanes ...

Thanks everyone for your tips on the floor. This time next week they will be in. Be crying or cheering. I hope I'm happy. I will be stressing my concern about levelling. And if they tell me otherwise I'll make sure they understand I'll be getting them to fix it if it's wavy. Leanne that's a massive ...

Welcome yogi. Good luck selling your house. I hope you get what you need. Always money to fork out :( our tank is a slimline tank 3000l I believe that's the minimum council requirement. I hope they don't charge you too much

Airy that's great you finally have movement. How was your tile selections? We deleted all but wet area flooring. Sunrise - what a nice surprise to return from being away to find framing started. I've requested the group airy. Happy to help out with admin if you need. I love my FB groups and would lo...

Get keys Monday dhome! Not long. Yay for frames. So exciting. I'm missing the thrill of building already. Hadn't spoke to SS for a week lol longest stretch of no communication since the build. Weird feeling to suddenly have it all finished and ready. But this is the calm before the storm. Next week ...

Airy that's so exciting you can choose tiles tomorrow. Make sure you share your selections with us. So much happened for you today! Lucky your plans were rectified. I think you should start a blog. I'm really really busy but found the blog easier to update everyone all at once. Friends and family fo...

Mystro - dam that it's confirmed. What house and size do you have?

Sorry everyone. I'm reading through but haven't had a chance to reply. Very busy Easter. Happy Easter to all! Hope you all had a relaxing one. Were all systems go for settlement. Less than a week. Driveway is in. Pics on blog. Love it.

Mystro are you def bal29? Is that council confirmed? Sorry can't remember what you said previously and I'm too lazy to sift through pages so it's easier to ask lol

Jahangir - we were the same. Told the same. There were upgrades I wanted but was told it's done at colours and PCVs raised for the added cost. I was only able to add things from display options list and any structural changes I wanted to the original plan.

Nsharma, hass and Heathcote good to hear the settling in is going well. I hope they fix up the little issues quickly. It's great to hear that you're happy with things. We have had a good build too so I hope we don't have major issues. Hass to have a build go up in 13 weeks is crazy. I thought your h...

Just wondering if anyone had a portico that was tiled and then a driveway that was poured upto the portico. I need to decide by 7am tomorrow what i should do. Outback have suggested doing the driveway upto the portico and leaving a little lip for future tiling to butt up against it. OR i leave the d...

Your house looks amazing. You gave certainly turned it into a gorgeous home. We will have our vinyl floors in by end April. I'm nervous. I hope they do a good job.

We did the stalking block thing. Only thing is we live 25 mins away from block. So a stalk was almost an hour round trip. But has to be done. It's the best when you see a little bit if progress. Dream - sounds like you had fun. If it gets that hot I think if pass out. You did so well to stay in the ...

Houses - your job would be super interesting. Airy - my tiles look completely diff, because your right it's so hard to select from one tile. I found it really difficult to visualise. Thankfully my obsession to get it all just right and visit tile place about 5-6 times paid off. I'm very happy with c...

Congrats hassen on settlement. Are you really happy with final product?
