Browse Forums Building A New House Re: New Jg King build!! 61Aug 20, 2015 6:15 pm Does anyone know anything about bricks? The rest of our house is beautiful however our pillars looks completely different. Obviously they haven't been clean yet.. Will they look like the rest of the house once cleaned? This feels like a really dumb question but even throughout the bricking stage the rest of the house never looked messy like the pillars..don't know if they just cleaned as they went or not. Hopefully they don't think we are rendering!! Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: New Jg King build!! 63Aug 20, 2015 6:40 pm Hey bremey. Just read up on your build. Looks like everything is going well for you. From looking at your pics. I would say that the bricks on the pillar just needs to be cleaned and should look like the rest of the house. Re: New Jg King build!! 64Aug 23, 2015 5:37 pm Have they done a clean on the pillers yet!?? They look terrible in comparison! Those house bricks look great thou! Re: New Jg King build!! 65Aug 23, 2015 6:54 pm Nope unfortunately our fears were confirmed this morning...brickies stuffed up and thought we were rendering. All good though, we have heaps of left over bricks so they are just knocking down the pillars and redo. Luckily with the pillar that's adjoined to the house, the house is actually bricked first, and then the pillar is just attached and bricked over the top so it won't affect any of the house or anything and shouldn't be too hard of a fix..just an annoying one! First and only problem thus far! Pretty lucky really. As for progress, our fit out is nearly complete. All skirting, cornices, doors and cabinetry are in and our painting meeting is scheduled for this week. Re: New Jg King build!! 66Aug 23, 2015 8:00 pm aww that sucks, atleast its getting fixed thou! I was going to comment on how the bricks were aligned with the house bricks... as in the house brick it was like small bit full brick small brick full brick and the pillers were aligned the exact same way rather then following on with the same pattern .. that would annoy me too much if they were to leave it like that.. (is two small bricks and two full bricks is by side rather then being the staircase pattern... if you know what i mean hahaha) I'm glad you haven't had any problems so far! I'm hoping things go smoothly for us too! how exciting for the inside too! can't be far off now? how long till your planned for take over? Re: New Jg King build!! 67Aug 23, 2015 9:24 pm I wondered if that was the case glad they are going to fix it up. Hopefully its the only problem you have.

Painting was complete last week I haven't been able to get any as everything is taped up due to the painting happening! Hopefully soon we can get there to grab some good pics once painting is complete! We went with the colour greyology 2, a nice fresh white. It looks beautiful Re: New Jg King build!! 73Sep 13, 2015 7:51 pm That's good that they are progressing well. Just had a quick google of the paint colour looks good got a bit of warmth while still being neutral.

We are building the Urbis, nice and small floor plan but very very open living. It's perfect. And we are in sunny Mildura I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending. All their existing trades and businesses don't work with… 14 105134 1 7926 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17198 |
