My builder removed the grass/debris; Stockland stipulated that the owner is responsible we mowed the grass to make it easier for builder/stick to stocklands rules of keeping the block tidy (before build/land levelling for slab commenced). As far as I understand, if you have settled on your block, you are now responsible (instead of the developer).

Roof tiles near completion, sarking done, elec/plumbing rough-in's done, internal linings commence & roof completion this week. Bricks next week, I think I'm really happy with the progress & it looks really good so far. Hows your progress coming along aps?

Did you guys also experience the same thing? APS Re: Building at Willowdale 739Dec 10, 2014 7:36 pm apsterenator Hi Guys, I got a call from one of the energy companies asking for details as the builder has asked them to contact me. Did you guys also experience the same thing? Hey aps, Yep - the builder passes on your relevant details to the energy installer (physical installation from the grid to your block/house wall) & the energy provider (billing agency who monitors usage) so you can chat with them when the time is right, for the purposes of connecting (physically & billing wise) your house to the supply network. Because the bill needs to go into your name, you have to be the one to authorise...At least, this was my experience - hope that helps Re: Building at Willowdale 740Dec 10, 2014 9:07 pm Hi Guys, We are building in Willowdale too but our land wont get register until early next year. We went to Willowdale for a drive last weekend and we were surprised to see many houses are already near completion. Even display homes is available now for viewing. Hey guys building a new place through a volume builder and just wondering if i should complain to the site supervisor as we just had plasterboard installed. Looks like… 0 11606 Elvis has left the building... The site supervisor quit after 2 month on the project. I guess he was just instructed to bark at people, but didn't like when he was… 26 21348 |
