I have done my back so getting outside and taking pics is not top priority (great way to spend my holidays)! Plan was for me to opil it this week so will see what happens there. 2nd build here we come in Whittlesea! https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=92617 1st Build - Henley - Cooper in Doreen!

House looks fantastic,and I love the side fence and deck - exactly what I wanted and it looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing the pics!! M My house and my rants.... - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=26937 We are in!!!...and still unpacking. Thankfully there are always Tim Tams Re: CiNnY's build with Henley- Landscpaing/Decking pics! 351Jan 07, 2010 12:48 pm Good Work Cinny! Looks fantastic. One thing that I'm curious about is how close is the finished garden to the plan that you submitted to Design Approval? Always wondered what happened if you changed your mind. Oh, and have they resumed work on stage 5 this week? Some people don't have time to do the job right the first time, but seem to have plenty of time to fix their mistakes.

One thing that I'm curious about is how close is the finished garden to the plan that you submitted to Design Approval? Always wondered what happened if you changed your mind. Oh, and have they resumed work on stage 5 this week? We didn't have to submit a plan (was only bought in for latter stages)! So we could change it as much as we liked until it was done! no no work down on stage 5 this week! Maybe next week! 2nd build here we come in Whittlesea! https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=92617 1st Build - Henley - Cooper in Doreen!

I would love to get something similar done with our driveway, but we had pavers included in our house contract and I doubt we'd be bothered to replace them in the future unless they were cracked or unsightly. But at least I have a alternative if they do Very classy.
