Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Sep 03, 2010 2:17 pm Finally I have something happening to blog about! We are finally starting to get all the final plans to get quotes from our builders! A bit about the house Over a year ago we bought a house in the Sutherland Shire, NSW. Now one of the previous owner was a builder and based on what he did to the house I would never hire him! The existing back extension had no veranda...just a sliding door to nothing. There are no gutters. There is only a corrugated roof with no insulation so it is freezing cold in winder and hot as during summer. Oh and birds nest in the roof. I will have to take a photo to show you the current garage and how he put it together...its a worry. My husbands uncle is an architect and we thought - hey lets use him! Now let me type this in caps so you don't miss the point NEVER EVER DEAL WITH FAMILY WHEN MONEY IS INVOLVED! But after more then a year effing around we finally have some plans to get quotes off. So we are off to get quotes from 3 builders so we can get this mother going! Now the pickle is do we start building before Christmas or wait until everyone has their break hmmm.
