Bathroom and Ensuite - our ensuite is in the foreground, kids bathroom in the background (with laundry)


Anyone know what this means??? Our builder mentioned that he was "having the slab cured". I thought that just happended over time?


Love it!
Wow - it's so gorgeous you wouldn't want to cover it up would you?? Looks like they have applied some sort of curing agent to the top of the cement maybe - ask your builder then you can let us know too!! Ohhh forgot to say CONSLABULATIONS !![/size]
Thank you
Looks great Rebecca - how's the curing going?
Your slab is HUGE
and such a beautiful setting!!!! I promise to keep a closer eye on your thread, can't wait to see the next episode in your building experience. Hope all goes smoothly for you.
to you and your family.
Quick update - pics to come in a few days....

Bricks wer delivered before Easter
Timber for frame delivered today, as I was driving off from the block at 1pm, builder and his son pulled up and started work!!! So our timber sat for 2 hours before they started!! World record I say.
Anyway, we have a few wall frames on the slab (****** down) for the garage and home theatre!!!

Exciting stuff!!!

That's excellent

Won't be long & you will be able to walk through all the rooms & really get a feel for your new home.
That was quick!!! How exciting!

Custom build | Facade colours

Building A New House

I'd get the gutters to match your roof and pipes to match the paint - otherwise they become a feature. Nice pick with the paint colours!

Soak wells and electrical run in happening this week! Summit has told me they will relocate the laundry plumbing after the walls are completed. I'm actually pretty happy…
