We have keys yay So we have a letter box and the clothesline (which was supposed to be fence mounted but they have installed it free standin), will take photos on the weekend The cleaners were still cleaning while we were doing the hand over haha. The construction manager had a quick walk through and mentioned he spotted a few things that he wanted fixed that the ss let slip. Most of the things that they are getting fixed should happen next week. Things like the en suite basin plug (claiming a Reece plumbing warranty job) and some missing grout and sealing between the vanities and cabinets. So pictures will come through later this weekend as we will be packing tomorrow and moving Saturday then heaps of pics and updates. Will be heading to the house tonight and possibly stay the night Re: Building Newport 19 with Coral Homes in Saddlers Ridge 450Apr 02, 2015 3:14 pm Awesome news!!!

I'm sure it would have felt amazing to finally sleep in the home you've worked so hard to create Can't wait to see some photos of the finished product, seems so quick since your start date too! This gives me some hope I'll be in by the end of the year... Re: Building Newport 19 with Coral Homes in Saddlers Ridge 460Apr 04, 2015 6:08 pm Congratulations cubshome, we got our keys the same day as you We have built with Coral also - Moreton 22 which we made a little bit bigger. Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 13771 In Qld it is a requirement that a builder must have a cost breakdown, for building a home to the same specification, with the same inclusions and the same finish. So ask… 1 4345 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74702 |
