There's a place in the Dandenongs (Vic) that sells cool house number tiles, I can't wait until we can go pick one up! I've had my eye on them for years! We built the Rathdowne with Simonds Express in Western Melbourne Site start Oct. 2015 Keys Jan. 25th, 2015 My build thread -here- Simonds Avalon Adelaide 222Apr 08, 2015 3:24 pm You certainly guided your friend in the right direction for what you wanted its brilliant. $60 is so cheap you must be thrilled.
What!!!!!! No the 24th is crap. Why is your Simonds man not cracking the whip on the certifier? Ohhhh you must be annoyed . Hahhahaha your face with tongue sticking out is rather funny. Your emojis had a break down at the site start delay. Re: Simonds Avalon Adelaide 223Apr 08, 2015 7:30 pm Hey TC, love the house number Can't figure out the certifier either, ours took a few days and that was waiting for engineering. Sure it's the certifier dragging the chain??? Custom build Northern NSW viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72217 Re: Simonds Avalon Adelaide 225Apr 08, 2015 10:39 pm Thanks peeps Haha Of course its the PC. Seeing we got council DA in principal about 6-8 weeks ago, he's clearly overloaded or the obvious scapegoat eh Re: Simonds Avalon Adelaide 226Apr 09, 2015 9:05 am wow, just caught up with your thread and what has been happening for the last month while ive been gallivanting through Thailand. Youre so talented drawing that landscape plan, in fact, you have inspired me to do the same! I think ill give it a go this weekend, only for the front yard area, landscaping 2.5 acres would not be a fun time... LOL. Also loving that street number. A beautiful one of a kind piece, i love it! It will look stunning. Lastly, im so glad im not the only one thinking about sneaking in a few 'variations' hoping that the OH might not notice, LOL. Waiting to pluck up the courage to do it and see what happens ha ha wish me luck! Re: Simonds Avalon Adelaide 227Apr 09, 2015 9:45 pm lovely bespoke piece of work with the house number! A real feature. And a collaborative memento!

Quote: Thought you'd like to know I just received the building rules approval from our private certifier. So he will now send it off to Tea Tree Gully council for them to stamp and file for final DA and then we are going to get busy digging holes and starting construction!!
