Remember it has to go below the kerb line and it is quite think. I have no idea how to picture what a tonnes is though Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 795Oct 23, 2014 10:35 am paulskee hey all Ive been looking through this forum for awhile and now decided to post something. Its great to hear from other people that are building with Kurmond. Everything is going well with Kurmond really loving their detail to work, especially painting and tiles. So far our house is about 3 weeks away from first inspection which is totally getting excited. You can see some instagram photos on a little website i setup. http://www.thelittlecornerhouse.com Hi Paulskee Which design you are building? The shower head is in the upgrade packages? Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 796Oct 23, 2014 11:14 am mars78 Mckz your driveway appears very similar to mine and they only used 1 load and credited me 2 loads.

Victoria_gill we are building the Glenleigh design, just the basic with the diamond package. The shower head is not part of their packages, we enquired about different heads as we didn't really like the ones they had. They said we can pick from their caroma range and they will quote us on the cost of it. Went today to our house and the door knobs, upstairs floors have been sanded and a few more little things done. Tiles should be done tomorrow and over the weekend Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 798Oct 23, 2014 5:54 pm Siri33 mars78 Mckz your driveway appears very similar to mine and they only used 1 load and credited me 2 loads.

All up ours was 51.5 including crossover and the extra charges we got this week were for an extra 3m² because they wanted to modify it to make it bigger ($363), the thickened edge as well ($220) and two truckloads of soil ($1100) The soil ended up coming to two truckloads. The 3rd was added as a mistake. SS says end of next week for handover but there's still quite a few items needing resolution (main being incorrect vanity installed in the WC and the cabinetry in the kitchen requires rectification as the workmanship on the edging is poor and a heap of scratches on the bench panels... The kitchen guy hasn't even been over to look at it so it'll be surely some time before he can get that sorted). I'll be impressed if he pulls it off but realistically I think the following week! Will keep everyone posted!
