If so please can you advise what type and is it mandatory? Btw I am asking for oran park area. I thought this is included in EBH specification building code? Point 4-1 Termite treatment Provide a termite barrier treatment in accordance with part 3.1.3 BCA housing provision in all areas where the Local Authorities requires such treatment. So why is it becoming an upgrade or another variations? I asked during tender submission if they provide any physical termite barrier and was told that they only do treated hyne timber. I also have this clause 4.1 termite treatment but not sure what they will provide. Newport38, did you enquire about it? We got a termite barrier installed around the perimeter of our house. It isn't something we requested or even realised we were getting. Our building supervisor said we had it included due to the fact we opted for a wooden stairway - the wood isn't treated for the stairs so they needed to add the barrier protection. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11890May 09, 2015 10:10 pm shellaw24 Just checked again and we got our house numbers back in December when the stage got PCI like roads/kerbs everything all finished and about to go in to council homeofjns Hi Adam, after our land for registered in Jan this year, our solicitor obtained s149 from council which had our street number. If your solicitor hasn't given you one, you should be able to request an updated s149 from council after registration. (Opinion) Thanks again guys. The street is finished and the land is registered, so I'm guessing my number has been assigned. I'll follow up with my conveyancer.

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11892May 10, 2015 12:22 pm Hi jahangir, The clause 4.1 termite treatment is that included in tender or contract. I am not sure , whether the builder has to provide termite protection is controlled by some Nsw govt body or HIA. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11893May 10, 2015 12:23 pm More over if it is in HIA contract they has to provide it as all the builders has to practice that code. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11894May 10, 2015 12:40 pm Hi all, As any body did their house rendering (moroka,etc) on their own. I mean opted out of builer doing it? I believe moroco quote by the builder Ebh is way expensive. I got a quote of $2500.

I believe moroco quote by the builder Ebh is way expensive. I got a quote of $2500. Venniechada, Yes we had the Moroka removed from our contract with our tender presenter. At first they said no and made the false claim it was a developer requirement to have that finish! We knew this was not true. After obtaining confirmation from the developer in writing that it was not a developer requirement & forwarding to EB, they had no choice but to remove it at our request. In my opinion they were just putting it in there as another item to put a ridiculous mark up on in order to make more money!

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11898May 10, 2015 11:08 pm For us, developer guidelines stipulated that only up to a certain percentage of the face should brickwork and at least two other elements should be there. We chose rendering and stacked stone. We are charged around $3000 for rendering and $2000 for stone. $3000 is for just two piers in front of our Sheffield Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 11899May 10, 2015 11:55 pm Hi homeofjns, Thats a rip off. I opted out of moroka finish and I wanted to do it myself. I am also thinking of options of a external painter who does it for far less than what EBH is charging after handover.

Hi Venniechada we also got moroka paint for our facade........ when we select the facade the guy in kellyville homeworld said we don't need to pay extras as it's already rendered..... but when we went tender presentation they have charged us $4000...... we tried to delete that but they said its developer requirement.........me and my wife both didn't like the moroka finish....... but we have signed the contract......is it possible to delete now???
