New Living Homes

ZoranaAlex · Jul 11, 2018 10:03 am

So from experience, are the downlights NLH provide bright enough? We have 2 in each bedroom, 6 in the dining room and 3 in the living room (which are next to each other) We got these included in our package/tender.
Jade electrical told us they will check for us in regards to the 2 way pier lights once we give the electrical plan back to them, This is what they said:
Please note if you would like pier lighting we will need to attend site prior to electrical rough in with the brick staff as in some cases these pier light cannot be wire into property. The electrical plan would need to be finalised prior to brick work commencing.

our current 2 way switch is in the hallway - we were thinking of adding another one in the living room/dining room -

I am going to buy a new house soon. I have found one property for sale Bodrum for an affordable price. I always dreamed to live near the sea. Hope to finish with all documents soon and start the packing.

So we went past the block and it looks like that leveled it off, and put gravel (im guessing for the truck access?)

Hopefully this means they will start excavating sooN!!

ZoranaAlex, yes they will excavate, then put in formwork and then pour your concrete slab. It will happen over the next few days unless rain holds it up. Once the slab has cured, they will deliver your frames. Then it gets really exciting!

Thanks for that

we ended up getting a private building inspector and he said he will contact our SS, however, he never answered!!
He also just wants to know whats happening and when they expect to start work.. By the looks of it theres no rain showing in the next week, just a very cold -3 in the morning! :shock:

Did you have to pay for electricity during the construction stage? I got a bill from AGL it did not say any useage details so probably this is just the set up fee which is $52.

ZoranaAlex · Jul 17, 2018 7:09 am

We still haven't got anything, since nothing has been happening! But I'm guessing its the set up fee

subhra1981 · Jul 24, 2018 11:03 am

Did you move in before they fixed everything or you waited?

Any one knows What sort of rain water tank NLH provides if its not upgraded? They did not hand over my house yet, but one of my saw my rain water from out side and he says it looks horrible. It looks like boxes and this is not slimline water tank. Any one knows more about it? Why their one different from others? Do they promiss to provide slimline!

This (type of tank) should be mentioned in your tender. If they are changing they will inform you.

ZoranaAlex · Jul 25, 2018 7:44 am

Our tender says 3000l Slimline water tank - check your tender, it should say
