Browse Forums General Discussion Re: Researching Builders, starting the process 4Feb 11, 2015 3:58 pm I found it better to get your own survey done (its going to save you some $$) but also get a peg out and a "sewer pegout" for your pipes. It will give you the accurate measurement of how deep the pipes are and a good idea of how close you can build to them. I'm currently building and we are 800mm off a sewer pipe and the builder had to have deeper piers to comply with the zone of influence. I had my surveyors report but had to pay for the peg out as well as the sewer peg out as I didn't know that I needed them. I found it was easier to approach builder with my our surveyors report. All the best for the building. Re: Researching Builders, starting the process 5Feb 13, 2015 7:21 pm Thank you so much for the replies, this forum is fantastic for gathering information and sharing experiences, I look forward to another weekend of planning at Homeworld ! I apologise for any confusion, but your understanding is correct. We approached our situation differently based on advice from… 11 53599 Thanks very much! And would the landscaper/contractor generally involve the engineer or is that something the client would do? Thanks for your help 2 10126 |
