I was on site with Darbecca and had a chat. It goes to show how much I have no idea about the building process and regulations. Yes, these inspections are costing me $2k but what they have picked up and what I have made the builder rectify far outweighs the cost. Just a few snaps of the house, not much happening on the house.

Check out your plans and they should confirm where the vents are. I have a meeting with the SS on Monday to go through the report so hoping most of the defects are fixed. Re: Building an Aegean230 with Mainvue. 273Mar 25, 2018 9:41 am Haven’t updated in a while but within a week we had the batts installed and the house plastered.

Did you have to frost any windows? Our upstairs is feeling a little dark for my liking. Re: Building an Aegean230 with Mainvue. 275Mar 25, 2018 11:57 am Rachael13 Looking good Firsttime - loving that you don't have to frost your upstairs lounge windows. Did you have to frost any windows? Our upstairs is feeling a little dark for my liking. We were lucky we got our building permits before the council changed their position and deemed all upstairs windows facing another property had to be glazed. We have the main road to the north and parks to the west side so no glazing and will be planting ‘skyrockets’ in the backyard to block out the South neighbour. This is one of the reasons we chose the Aegean as it suited the block and the majority of our windows don’t face any neighbours. Re: Building an Aegean230 with Mainvue. 276Mar 26, 2018 12:02 pm Meeting with SS went well today and we reviewed the pre plaster report. Got confirmation that majority of the defects have been rectified with photos taken to prove this. A few items will be rectified later in the build and a couple of items won’t be fixed (can’t win them all) which aren’t structural or cosmetic so no issues there. SS has organised a meeting with the tiler so we can go through how they are planning on laying the tiles. Brickies due back on site tomorrow to finish the first level and stairs should be in be early next week. Re: Building an Aegean230 with Mainvue. 278Apr 01, 2018 3:41 pm Your build is flying along, you must be so pleased with the progress. Stairs are looking amazing as well. With the style of stairs that you have, do you still have the "Harry Potter" room underneath?

With the style of stairs that you have, do you still have the "Harry Potter" room underneath? Got to give credit to our SS, he’s had trades on site nearly everyday (even during the Easter break) but he told us it’ll all start to slow down once we’re at lockup. Yep, we’ll definitely still have the “Harry Poster” style room underneath. Other half is short and can stand straight under the first floor stairs . I have a feeling that space will be ‘the Bermuda triangle’ once stuff goes in it’ll never come out again.
