Still haven't had an introductory call from either our SS or construction administrator Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 482Feb 11, 2016 9:01 am these days i think independent inspector is a must for at least for certain stages. Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 25 - PCI in 3 days 483Feb 11, 2016 9:03 am I think its good that you have all in writing and they telling you they will address them. hope they fix soon so you can move in to your lovely home.

We don't even want to live in it now. It's just a bad experience and left us feeling like cr@p Worst thing we ever did is decide to build with Henley homes. Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 488Feb 13, 2016 6:12 am What an awful experience for you 😔 I really feel for you given all the time and effort that goes into it... hope all gets fixed and in years from now, the memory of your build experience fades...

We had to clear everything, so will be starting from scratch with the garden.... and I definitely, do not have a green thumb. We also don't have a big back yard thanks to Melbourne Waters stupid flood overlay Glad tending your garden gives you an outlet for your frustration Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 492Feb 14, 2016 1:41 pm our backyard is not big anymore as we had to push the house pretty far back to fit the extra width to the garage but our front yard is fully fenced so the kids play in the front a lot, especially when we get a nice new long driveway in for them to ride their bikes and play on.

They grow quick and if you want them to join up clip the new growth regularly. We left ours too long at the start and now we are trying to fill on a few holes. See in this pic how the first two are bushy and join but the others still have gaps. They are filling in slowly now though Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 496Feb 14, 2016 4:34 pm Mine are this big...

You can cut the very tips of them now or soon then when you see the new red growth trim them too, it feels weird cutting off the new growth but this helps make them come back bushier Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 498Feb 17, 2016 10:35 am Has had walk through with SS which has left me feeling flat and not confident. He doesn't care. Doesn't think the things we want fixed need fixing. Thinks it will be another 3 weeks or so. Just a bad meeting - over it all. I dont hold high hopes for the end result We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 36901 The biggest challenge will be if you take out a loan and then run out of money - you'll have an incomplete security and lenders do not like this so you can get stuck.… 2 18895 Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes.
