Statesman build Barossa Estate

Haha, this has got to be the only time in your life to get excited about having a portable toilet on your property

Its been a while since the last update, so got more photos. Slab is down now just waiting for the first builders invoice and the frame to arrive.

Looks wonderful, btam. Congratulations.

Frame is up now, just waiting on photobucket to reinstate my account so i can upload pictures. They closed my account because i hadn't used it in 10 days, stupid photobucket

Went by today and the gutters are on now, so roof should be pretty soon. Have been very busy organizing solar, concreting, carpets, tiles. So hopefully when the house is built every thing should just fall in place.

It is amazing how quickly it can turn into a house. Looks great, btam.

Just a quick update, the roof is on now, insulation done, gyprock done, And brick work is about half way through.

So exciting for you to see your house coming together. We are building with Statesman too (well hopefully, no council approval as yet), hoping I can ask you a few questions?

The concrete bit under your brick, is this just the slab exposed so you can inspect for termites, or is it something else? I actually don't mind it at all, and reluctant to fork out more cash for upgrades!

I saw an earlier post you had chosen a Monument roof, is this a lighter colour? I like it! Did you go with the painted zincalume gutters or the colourbond? (another thing I can't decide on!)

I did ask to have the slab raised, didnt cost any extra. And the roof is monument looks a lot lighter once in place and yes i went with the painted zincalume gutters as i couldnt justify the cost of colourbond.

Hope this helps
