Hey are there others following you building in Billy’s lookout? I want to ask about Schooling choices and thoughts





Hey Cat no not really but I can check on BL private fb page for you. My kids are staying where they are as only 10mins away I think a lot seem to be doing the same for those in school already but not sure about those with littlies.



Week 4:

Frames up and roof trusses on





Gutters & Facias booked for end of week weather permitting 🤞🤞🤞

We chose St Kilda in the end, was Ventura originally and I loved the new one retro/urban?!?
but it's $$$$
so couldn't justify it
we are going to stack stone our pillars eventually & chose bigger window at front
so happy for you cant believe your so close now



Just want to let anyone building for the first time know if the slab looks small don't stress wait until frames so much better
so excited to see my WIR (oops ours
) & WIP so big!!!! Compared to what we have currently



Frame stage is SO exciting. It was my favourite stage
You can walk through it and day dream. Are your kids excited? Have they chosen rooms?

Take loads of pictures and measurements where the studs are if you're planning to hang or wall mount/secure shelves and art work etc. I've referred back to our frame pictures heaps to make sure we don't hit electricity and water/gas pipes.

I was in town for the hail but my neighbours told us our dogs escaped twice during it! God love them, the neighbours ran out twice in the hail to put the dogs back in. Dogs had cover of course but they just FREAKED. It wouldve been pretty darn loud on our patio roof!
Oh your poor dogs it would’ve been so scary for them & loud. Mine were trying to get outside too it was all a bit crazy lol yes going to take lots of pics & put up some noggins for tvs, & things thanks for tips do you add 5mm for plasterboard ? Oops sent before finishing kids are excited & fighting already over who’s having which room. Oldest wanted the garage not knowing what it was lol



The garage
I’d pick that one too!

Hmm plasterboard comes in different depths. It’s most likely 10mm.

Wait till the plaster goes on and you can walk the hallways and actually picture furniture in each of the rooms. Looks great by the way

What did this fireplace look like and restoration suggestion

General Discussion

No the fireplace doesn’t work. It’s been enclosed. I’m not sure what was removed, as it was done quite some time ago - well before what I can see with photos online…
