Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 243Apr 04, 2014 3:17 pm sjb2312 Ok not sure if this will work but try this link to see pics http://www.pinterest.com/sjb2312/house/ It's so refreshing to hear a good story I was getting worried, now thinking.... Well I would rather be happy in a slow built house, than unhappy with a home we could move into in 22 weeks Goodluck to everyone building with HGWA, I'm sure the build will be great!! Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 244Apr 04, 2014 4:31 pm hi sjb2312 it worked and I got to see the photos of your bricks too! I must say I am jealous of the bricks, they were the one I fell in love with and then got told at prestart that they are no longer build with that brick Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 245Apr 04, 2014 5:10 pm Glad it worked. There are a few Homegroup houses being built near ours with this brick so it must be recently that they discontinued it. Most of our changes are at the front of the house, we widened the entrance so we could have a 1200 door and put 2 mini windows in (stole from the display house the grand I think) We moved the en suite loo under the eaves to allow a bank of drawers between the cupboards and extend the bench top. I won't go into the shower changes, about 3 revisions to get the shower right!! We enclosed the study and added cupboard and then flipped the pantry added a little store room. Just drove past and theres a heap of wood for the roof Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 246Apr 04, 2014 11:47 pm Congratulations on your slab date. I can't wait to see pics as the build starts. I love your me corner too, every girl needs her girl space.. If a man can have his cave ...!?! Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 247Apr 05, 2014 10:10 am My idea on a mud room in the garage This is the place where the kids will put their bags, shoes, hats and coats. I am over my kids having their shoes and bag throughout the house. It's not just seeing the shoes, it the sand that comes out of them. These are from ikea (look under children storage) I am wanting two side by side and hooks in the space between them. There should be room for the adult shoes too.

My build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=68002 Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 249Apr 05, 2014 2:47 pm Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 251Apr 05, 2014 5:40 pm Good idea . If only my carport wasn't going to be my storage for my partners tools for a while . We are going from a 7x7 shed to nothing for a while . so cars may be parked outside trying to look for a cheep way to store them in the carport that makes it not look like a place of junk . Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 252Apr 09, 2014 9:12 am Any sign of some action on your block yet cupcakes? Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 253Apr 09, 2014 2:46 pm No movement on the block ATM I got a email on Friday saying that the earth works are due to start on the 10th and the pad 5 say after. I still drive by twice a day Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 254Apr 09, 2014 3:23 pm Haha you sound like me!!! The trades of other houses must know my car by now!! Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 255Apr 09, 2014 7:07 pm How do you stay excited about the build? I lose all enthusiasm as it takes so long between things happening Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 256Apr 09, 2014 7:40 pm im loving your mud room idea and i must say the custom one is my fav too, i stuck a store room in my hall way for all the kids bags and shoes i dont get a say about the garage according to my husband. you sound like me, always driving past. im still excited about the whole thing too and often wonder if the trades wouldnt mind me hanging around if i bring them morning tea Re: Sharon's build with home group WA schedule for slab 8 Ap 257Apr 09, 2014 8:24 pm Yes I am excited!!!!!!!! WHY??????? Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17587 Hi, did you get any money from insurance? if you did, does it match what you've already paid the builders? 3 9565 |
