Browse Forums Building A New House Re: CrazyEagle's Lightsview Build - Render and electrical 221Jan 24, 2013 3:35 pm Thanks DCT and juski I think the timber really makes the house. I said the same thing to A about the gable - looks a bit jagged at the moment without the capping! Hoping that will be done soon And DCT.. it is a thought.. but I think it's a bit excessive, I mean, we are already going to have 3 toilets and there is only going to be 2 of us living there!! 6m Terrace House - Lightsview (Northgate SA) First fix completed ... 15 February 2013 Render completed... 19 February 2013 Insulation... 19 February 2013 Plasterboard... 21 February 2013 /viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58747 Re: CrazyEagle's Lightsview Build - Stairs! 222Jan 24, 2013 9:07 pm We got our stairs installed today!! Think the builder bumped it forward so that it's much more safe for A to install the speaker wiring and alaram system. Can't wait until I can go in there and actually walk upstairs, rather than try and climb up the ladder and freak out lol 6m Terrace House - Lightsview (Northgate SA) First fix completed ... 15 February 2013 Render completed... 19 February 2013 Insulation... 19 February 2013 Plasterboard... 21 February 2013 /viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58747 Re: CrazyEagle's Lightsview Build - Stairs! 223Jan 24, 2013 9:09 pm CrazyEagle We got our stairs installed today!!

I love the merabeu (or however you spell it)! We were quoted for Jarrah timber for our balcony, but the expense is astronomical!! And i actually like the merabeu better!! So i think we will switch in selections Yay, stairs!!! Looks good, cant wait to see the next lot of pics!!

We are hoping that we save a lot on our power bill but only time will tell! Summer parties sound good though Thanks J_and_T!!! I'm very happy with the progress so far, that's for sure! Love the meribu (that's probably not how it's spelt!) .. Real timber is better than that metal 'timber', you can tell the difference I think.. I can imagine Jarrah will cost an arm and a leg!! They told us with the timber is got about 7 years before it needs to be re-oiled.. We will probably do it all after 5 though. Hopefully the fact that the house is facing north will work in our favour too!

We had to change 50cm of an exterior wall, due to an aircon position mistake, which therefore meant it had to go back to council. On the day it got approved at council for the original plans.

The aircon technician says that will be very inefficient so we also end up losing the space on our master room, we decide to lose on study nook and keep the master room "square", not a big deal the study nook length was decreased to 2.8M from 3M. how much did you lose?? 7.5M Dual Frontage terrace @ lightsview SA /viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58754 moved in - April 2014 furnitured - August 2014 home theatre - September 2014 Game room - December 2013 moved in - 09 April 2014 of course there are legal avenues.
