Love the front door and side panel. Room sizes look good, race you till the end haha Custom build Northern NSW viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72217 Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 482Sep 02, 2015 9:30 pm Haha. I thought that same thing when i saw u were at lock up around the same time traceywayne . I thought the race is on now. Haha. My contract states fixing is when doors, arcs, skirting, baths, robes, shelves and tiling to wet areas. Im assuming shelves means cabinetry as there is no other mention of cabinetry in the contract and stages. There is also no mention of painting. Oops didnt pick that up when reading through contracts at the start. Like i said befoee they have done plaster, arcs, skirting and doors. Robes dont appear to be in, the cabinetry is in the process of being made, its not painted and we are meeting tiler on saturday so they wont start till ?Monday. So really on half the stage is complete. Am i right to be with holding payment until that is done? Or would you guys go ahead and pay it? It doesnt feel right handing over money before they have completed the stage. I know they cruising ahead and will have it complete by next week but still. Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 483Sep 02, 2015 9:34 pm My understanding has always been by you authorising payment it means you're happy that that stage is complete. I wouldn't pay and maybe they sent it a bit early by mistake. We're being painted now, race on yay!!

And because its so close to the couch he can jump on. Haha. He is learning quickly that he cannot go on there. Occasionally he sneaks on. teeheehee. Go pups! Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 486Sep 02, 2015 9:44 pm Yeah traceywayne hoping they just sent it early and they dont expect payment till next week when they have actually completed the stage. Will phone them tomorrow to clarify. Its hard when they just email you the invoice and dont explain themselves. Yay for paint. What colour did you end up choosing. Lexicon? Thanks nat_luke1 i love it too. Its covered with foam and table cloth to keep it new but i keep peeking under it to take a look. Haha Yep TC he is a cheeky pup. Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 489Sep 04, 2015 11:04 pm Have a great visit livpal, so excited for you! Yes went with lexicon half.

Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 493Sep 05, 2015 11:20 am Omg the weather is stunning. Just had the walk through with the tiler. Very laidback guy. Hope he understood what i wanted. He had a wedding last night so he was a bit foggy i think. Anyway all the tiles are correct. We are just having brunch then will head back to the house to take photos. Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 494Sep 05, 2015 3:23 pm Sounds great! I'm sure he'll do an awesome job for you. Pictures, we need pictures lol. Is it looking just like you hoped?

Custom build Northern NSW viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72217 Re: Building with GJ northern nsw- Locked up 500Sep 05, 2015 7:47 pm Thanks everyone. Big long day for us. Back in Melbourne now. Next time we are up it will be for PCI. We met our neighbour today and he seems really nice. About our age too which is nice. We r trying to work together to get retaining walls joined so we can just fence over the top of them. Hard to explain but its nice that a neighbour is keen to work together and get along. They also dont have family around them but they have plenty of friends as they have been living in the area for some time. Overall good day. Now to get home and get some sleep.....if the kids let us Hi, I am wondering if anyone has built with Montgomery in the last few years on the Northern Beaches?
