Perhaps unfortunately, laundry and bathroom are always smaller than others. BB emphasize more on kitchen, living area and bedrooms. Come to think if it, we only use them when it is needed and probably max 2 people going to use the bathroom at the same time. The bigger we have, the more we have to scrub the floor and tiles. Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 483Sep 11, 2016 7:54 pm Yes and I don't really enjoy spending time in the laundry at the best of times lol Letterbox went up today, had no idea he was coming today so a nice surprise. Just have to get the number to place on there and he is coming back in a couple of days to wash the bricks.

Don't know about brickie as landscaper sent him round. If I'm home when he comes to clean bricks I'll ask him. Build thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81011 Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne.

Yes Bb left site really clean and removed all mulch Build thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81011 Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 491Sep 12, 2016 6:24 pm Gate looks great! And the letter box. How cute D Looks very wet ;-; too bad about the rain.. but probably a great time to get your garden put in. Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 492Sep 12, 2016 6:46 pm Perhaps if it turns out good, I might need the your landscaper contact. I only need to get someone dig up and loosen the soil. we are incapable doing it due to our back problems. Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 493Sep 12, 2016 7:21 pm Charley Rain has delayed turf going down. He is now saying Saturday. Yes Bb left site really clean and removed all mulch Good builders put mulch on the ground during building. We were so happy that Bb did that. Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 494Sep 15, 2016 4:32 pm Yes I never knew that. SS told us they do that for the brickies. Landscaper can't start because ground is too wet, but he is going to come Saturday and put garden beds in so at least I can start on garden. Have to go ring Iprimus as modem arrived but internet not working, maybe I haven't connected it right or something.

Iprimus said they can see from their end fibre optics are fine and working but internet just wont connect, so they have escalated it and hopefully have some answers tomorrow. Then landscaper came round and nearly sunk in our front yard due to all the rain we've had lol so now the turf has to wait until we've had a few dry days. But he is going to put garden beds in at the weekend so i can at least put some plants in the ground. Then big reds came round and finished gate. Then heater manufacturer came round because something wrong with heater but turned out heater is fine but was installed incorrectly by the installers, so thats all good now. Bought more data for my phone so will upload pics tomorrow. Build thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81011 Re: Building on a corner block in Melbourne. LOCK UP! 498Sep 16, 2016 9:06 am [quote="capricorn"]Do you call the heater company directly or do you contact Bb? No none of that done through Burbank. You get a list of who to contact for the different products in your house. So we had to call the business that installed the heater and they came out and still not right so then Bonaire came.
