It was pretty bad, but I didn't notice it much at work.. but here at home it seems crazy!! You're lucky you have someone to do your doors I don't know many tradies, just my uncle who is a cabinet maker so he's doing my WIR and laundry cabinetry when I get around to it. My friend who lives in Pakenham just asked me to go to a Food truck festival on the 20th October. I'm going to go, should be fun You should take a friend down there and check it out! Re: {Dawn} SE Melb Custom Build - Ever After :) 2437Sep 19, 2017 6:37 pm I am lucky! When I see him I'll ask if he can recommend someone for you. My dad isn't really a tradie, he does earth works, but he's handy at everything from truck driving, fixing cars, welding, anything with power tools.. and apparently paving and thankfully he has a few friends and my uncles are all pretty handy. I've been SO lucky to have people able to help me with the house, I would never have been able to afford to get all this done without them. Mum and I are going plant shopping soon and she'll help me plant them all, she's quite a green thumb Ooh, wish I knew a cabinet maker who could do my WIR!! I don't have one of them. Oh, that does sound fun.. I might be able to go. My weekends have gotten strangely full lately! Re: {Dawn} SE Melb Custom Build - Ever After :) 2438Sep 19, 2017 6:42 pm Busy day today!!

Re: {Dawn} SE Melb Custom Build - Ever After :) 2439Sep 19, 2017 6:46 pm Got an email from my broker today saying that the stamp duty office rejected my refund claim because my build took too long So I had to provide more evidence to show that I had done everything possible to get the build completed on time (had 12 months from land settlement to move in in order to be entitled to the FHO stamp duty discount and therefore get my refund). By the time I put together an email to the broker she rang me to say they had approved my refund based on her explanation to them YAY getting my refund and apparently within 48hrs.. yay. Re: {Dawn} SE Melb Custom Build - Ever After 😀 2440Sep 19, 2017 7:33 pm So glad you got your stamp duty discount hopefully it helps with some of the extra costs. Thanks for reminding me I need to do mine and apply for my FHB. So much to do before I get my keys next Monday . Desk and bookcase are really nice and tie in nicely with your other pieces. I love matching things. I work with owner, he/she is my man on the ground and I instruct them when to visit the site and take photos and I have other tools in the bag. 4 15265 I am in the same situation, would you be able to give some insights in to this? I am in SA 8 17040 Depends what you're current inclusions are, but we're not including wardrobes and will just use second hand ones until we can save later on to get them built. Also have a… 3 11628 |
