Re: Building the "Clarendon Crestmead" 96Apr 03, 2009 10:07 am behw Hi Lobo, I am buildign a Creastmead too. But whcke your mortar, if there are unaccetpable area, sort it out iwth the SS now. My Ss promised us that they will fix it and tidyign it up and they are nto doing it and wnat to hand over the house. Get it done while your scaffold is there. Otherwise the SS will not pay for the cherrypicker to come back. THey are makign excuses with me now. Check you bay window. We are also doing bricks witht the bay window and the gapsat the corner is so large. Also check the brick and mortar under your window sills. If you find any area that you are not happy with, ask them to redo now. Once the internal is in, pulling down wall will be difficult. I will show you what I mean. see my bay windows. Hello behw thanks for the advise, I will get on this ASAP when the SS next calls me .. lobo Buildling a Clarendon Crestmead in Sydney DA Approved on 20/03/2008 Slab Poured on 02/09/2008 Frame Completed 15/10/2008 Brickwork Complete 2/02/2009 Roofwork Complete 05/03/2009 Re: Building the "Clarendon Crestmead" 97Apr 06, 2009 10:01 am Hi Lobo, so glad you finally have a roof, I can't believe your frame was exposed so long, that rotting timber looks downright nasty. Glad you're getting a PC, we are having the same one check our house over, I'm hoping our timber is not in a similar condition but...... it could be, I will be checking myself also later this week, though our timber was not exposed as long as yours. I'd be fuming about it. I'm so glad we finally have a roof also, seems we are at a similar stage. Re: Building the "Clarendon Crestmead" 98Apr 08, 2009 10:26 am Hello Friends to give an update on the Flooring issue... our independent inspector and Greenfields both asked that an Engineer certify that the boards are structurally sound. They have taken a sample of the Floor board out and sent it to a mechanical strength testing Lab. The shear and compressive strength will decide the fate of the floor. Rest of the Job is going on at a rather brisk pace. Plasterboard = done Stairs = done skirting = 50% done Pictures will follow soon ! lobo Buildling a Clarendon Crestmead in Sydney DA Approved on 20/03/2008 Slab Poured on 02/09/2008 Frame Completed 15/10/2008 Brickwork Complete 2/02/2009 Roofwork Complete 05/03/2009 Building the "Clarendon Crestmead" 100Apr 17, 2009 10:48 am Hello Friends, I have all good news to give about Clarendon at this Stage.
