Follow our Arden Toulouse build at http://ardentoulouse.blogspot.com.au Re: Arden Developments 2382Nov 18, 2017 6:02 am Hey Geminithinker. Just a few small things on plans, but just so you know, after you sign contracts, you do get final plans later to sign off again, so things can be amended then. Just look at shower doors opening and position of towel rails etc. as our towel rail didn’t fit in powder room (we added shower), check door height for elevations, our front door height hadn’t been increased, direction of doors opening etc. we repositioned exhaust fans to be above shower, man hole moved to WIL instead of bathroom. We added a few more lights to electrical. Check fridge space including depth. That’s all I can think of, but at least you get final plans again to recheck everything. Re: Arden Developments 2383Nov 18, 2017 6:38 am geminithinker Ok peeps. Contract on Tuesday. Tell me what you noticed that was missed? Check that all your upgrades have been included on the elevations as well. Our plans were missing the flue for the rangehood (not standard with Inspired Homes) and the hanging changes in our WIR and shelving changes in butlers. And now that I think about it there is only an exhaust fan in the powder room and none in the bathrooms on the plan lol but as Ezza said there is one more final chance before build start and exhausts are standard. We talked about about deadlock additions at the beginning of our appointment then not again over the day and we forgot them. They are not letting me do them now as a variation so I'm hoping my SS will let us supply them during build. Take a list with all your questions and tick them off as you go.

Anything specific i should be taking care? Any pointers? Take photos of your selections and take samples home. There's not a huge amount to see there so go to the suppliers before hand if you want to see the range. Don't forget to pick colours for walls and trims etc. Head to bunnings and grab some swatches. Our lady said alot of people forget about that hehe.

NHI did a pre-plaster report yesterday and there were quite a few defects. I sent him a text message and emailed him the report and told him to postpone putting up the plaster until all defects are addressed and a re-inspection is done. He replied early this morning saying he will get back to me, which he didn't. I just went to look today after work and all the plaster is up!! Not happy.

We extended the island to 3m and deleted the servery, but that was because we didn’t want a join in the stone, and 3m is the widest you can go without a join. It didn’t cost anything from memory.
