We are also building at BR and have experienced the same frustration as everyone with time taken etc. K + J I think that we may be building diagonally to you. We are next to a two storey house that is being bricked currently. Our piers were poured on Thursday and now the rain!! We are building the Clarendon Wentworth 33 but we have made lots of changes. We were rated BAL 29 and now we are rated 0, has this happened with anyone else?

We are the only one that is building on our side of the street at the moment. Our neighbour has framed for slab but from just being out there now (in gumboots) there is soooo much water around. Good to have someone on here that is down my end.

He is out there today bricking to catch up for downtime on Friday. Had a good chat with him and he told us of other houses he has bricked in BR so we could see his end result. We checked them out and are more than happy with the end result, especially seeing one of the houses had the same colour bricks ours Gumboot day today.

T & G Yes, we were initially a BAL40 but when final approval came back we'd gone to 0 as well. It certainly saved us some money, but we kept some of the options anyway (thicker glass, more insulation, etc). It seems a bit random to me. We're very close to the smaller triangle of trees and houses farther down the block still had BAL ratings.
