Is this in Melbourne or else where South East Melbourne. Oh nice we are in the SE as well, but out pretty far Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 24Dec 07, 2016 3:05 pm At last signing the documents and sending back and forth Henley has told us they will start on site this week or next week. So far nothing happened. Hope they start at least next week.... Hopefully the long wait is over.

If they start soon you should hopefully have a slab before shutdown over the christmas new year period!

If they start soon you should hopefully have a slab before shutdown over the christmas new year period! It's only 1 and half weeks before they close down for Xmas new year. So unlikely it will happen. But fingers crossed for the slab pour before Xmas break. Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 27Dec 07, 2016 3:56 pm Does anybody know I need to take council/builders permit again if I decide to change from the initial approved plan of design for garden? Or it has to be exactly like the current approved plan. Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 30Dec 07, 2016 7:24 pm Awesome! Well it seems that they are going to try and get the slab done before shutdown! Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 32Dec 07, 2016 11:27 pm stayxtrue Awesome! Well it seems that they are going to try and get the slab done before shutdown! I called admin and she told its unlikely that slabs will be done before break. But they will try. The site supervisor has not called me yet and I am waiting for their call. Dean is going to be our site supervisor from Henley website. Any body has dealt with him before? Hope he is good. Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 33Dec 08, 2016 6:25 am DAlex mich1 Do you remember how much the door with glass to the pantry was? $480 something. Clear glass $210, translucent glass $319, std size door Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 35Dec 13, 2016 11:20 am Excellent! Its all happening! And thats one very flat block! Site costs must be next to nothing! Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 37Dec 17, 2016 1:05 pm stayxtrue Excellent! Its all happening! And thats one very flat block! Site costs must be next to nothing! Not really. It cost me 18 k as per Henley. I don't have a clue why it costs that much. Initially the SC told me there is a slope of 700 cm from the back and likely retaining walls are necessary. And it is the engineer who come up with that figure bla bla. Now it looks to me like max an hour job for excavator as they pulled a bit of soil from back to front as there is a slight slope. That's all. I have to ask them about this to Henly regarding this rip off cost. I took quotes from 3 builders and all of them quoted nearly the same. And the next door neighbor it was about the same. But no idea why it costs that much Re: Building Sahara Belle with Henley !!!! 38Dec 17, 2016 1:07 pm DAlex stayxtrue Excellent! Its all happening! And thats one very flat block!

We considered Henley early on but there were two factors that… 1 10438 Thanks for your reply. I will just wait and see I guess. Trying to get some more information from our builder. 9 30233 |
