Re: Building a double storey house @ Roof Stage 3Jul 01, 2011 10:14 am ours was done before brickwork.strange way to do it though as they hung scaffold up around the gutter line for the roofer then took that down and put proper scaffold up for the bricky. Re: Building a double storey house @ Roof Stage 4Jul 01, 2011 1:58 pm Our roof went on first as well. Apparently this is called a reverse build. They did it because the bricky wasn't available. I'd say your roof will go on as soon as the tradie is available. Re: Building a double storey house @ Roof Stage 6Jul 01, 2011 7:23 pm our brickwork for the 2nd fl;oor is done, they will now get the timber and the roof tiles in. Its different in Victory they do the frame work and then the bricks but in Perth they do all the brickwork and then they get ready for the roof. How long did your whole house building take from slab down to handover? thanks Rita Re: Building a double storey house @ Roof Stage 7Jul 02, 2011 6:23 am Coudn't tell you that as we're only up to fixing But so far it's been 5 months Land Deposit - 18/12/2009 Became a land Baron - 21/12/2010 Site Start - 27/1/2011 All moved in!!
