It just ends in a LOT of pics Buckle up because here they come: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We have had our ups and downs but I have to say we have mostly ups! Till next time everyone, Happy Building! Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 84Aug 16, 2017 5:12 pm Hi Krusade25 Thanks for sharing your journey so far! How has the communication been with them? How much did they let you change? Your floor plan looks very much like what we want, but we can't fit the length. Was there a lot of price difference when you changed a lot of stuff? Any chance you can give a ballpark figure (or private message me) how much the build was? We are trying to price builds now. Thanks!

Anytime i need to ask something our SS Aaron is more than willing to answer and fix if need be. I really cant complain. Their service is just top notch. Neel at Oran Park helped us make the necessary changes to get the house just the way we liked. I think with any changes to the plan there will always be issues with extra cost but i have to say all costs have been very reasonable. PM me and i can give you a ballpark figure on pricing. Keep in mind we spent about 60k on upgrades to our house on top of the base price. Thanks for stopping by and thanks for following. Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 86Aug 19, 2017 9:08 pm 19 August 2017: Another week and another hive of activity. I have heard so many awful stories of building delays and incompetent site supervisors and I feel so sorry for those caught up in that. We are truly one of the lucky ones as our Site Supervisor Aaron is just pushing our build and coordinating it so well. Great communication and service. So what happened this week? Paint started so ceiling was painted and all walls got an undercoat. It isn't finished yet but it looks so much better than bare gyprock and plaster! Then we had some marathon tiling every day this week. Tilers have done alfresco, porch, balcony, laundry and 4 bathrooms. Grouting was done today but I don't have pictures of that but 2 more days and all tiling should be completely finished. We LOVE our choices that were made SOOO long ago. It's almost like "did we choose that??? AWESOME choice!" Cladding was completed as was the rest of the eaves so we are now protected from the elements which is comforting. Kitchen cupboards are now fully installed and all bathroom and laundry cupboards and vanities have now been mounted. Another week and we will hopefully see some Caesarstone benchtops and this Friday the electrician starts the mammoth task of installing all of the lights! Excitement growing. Getting closer! Sorry about the picture overload!

Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 87Aug 19, 2017 11:41 pm Hi Krusade, Its really very nice to know how fast better build homes are. For our dream home, they have already installed fences and also marked the slab on the ground after leveling. I just went and thought of checking but even before they have already started preparing for it. I'm yet to contact supervisor, must say very impressed. Will keep you posted.

Thanks so much siusiufamily. We did decide to do our own flooring. We were not too keen on the range of flooring for the house and we didn't want carpet so we got a small credit back and we went with Vinyl plank flooring for the whole house. With those tiles, we made the selections so long ago so it is a big relief to see them and still be happy with them! Yes prices are a bit of a surprise at first but considering their workmanship and the movement of their builds I would go with Better Built again if we had a do over! Thanks for the encouragement and thanks for stopping by. I hope your build goes as well as our one has.

Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 93Aug 26, 2017 8:00 pm 26 August 2017: I didn't think it was going to be a particularly busy week but as always Aaron surprised us with a lot more progress than anticipated. He does a great job with that. So we started the week with painters coming in to paint all of the door and window frames as well as the staircase handrails and the alfresco ceiling. Then the tilers came to finish off the grouting to all of the tiling areas making them look complete. (The tilers did an awesome job by the way). Fence was straightened and fixed to stop curious intruders wandering onto the site. Then we had some carpenters come in to fix the kitchen framing for the window as well as punch some holes in the doors for the internal doors. We had gyprockers come in to put the finishing touches to the main ensuite cornice and finish off the gyprock for under the stairs. The electrician started installing all of our downlights as well as all of the ixl heatlamps and exhaust fans. Then as we thought we were done for the week, BAM!, in goes our Caesarstone benchtops which was just an awesome surprise! For the cherry on the cake, the undermount sink as well as the basins for all of the ensuites and bathrooms were also installed. Time to stop writing an essay and go to the photo roll!

Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 94Sep 02, 2017 9:05 am 2 September 2017: Things are still humming along at the Kruse35. We said goodbye to our site supervisor Aaron on Friday but our new SS Peter sounds like he knows what he is talking about which is great. So a quick recap of what happened this week. We had all of the door handles installed as well as door stops meaning doors can now be closed! Then we had plumbers come in and install all of the taps, toilets and shower heads in all of the bathrooms, laundry and kitchen. Electrical continued with the installation of more downlights and ceiling fans and the gyprockers came in to iron out a few bumps in the walls. Overall another satisfying week as we move another step closer to getting the keys! As always, here come the pics.

Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 95Sep 02, 2017 7:29 pm 3 September 2017: A really quick update here. We popped by and noticed that the air con vents have been installed and some little bits of carpentry work was also done. However the big surprise was that the privacy screens had arrived and were installed in the balcony. I had always thought that I would just take them straight down after we got our OC but you know what....they look so much better than I thought they would. By the way my wife is a professional photographer so you might notice that today's pics look heaps better than the pics I usually post that I have taken.

This week started with the installation of shower screens in all bathrooms. We finally had our back window installed which meant our house is finally safe from wet and wild elements. The correct Caesarstone benchtop was installed in our master bathroom with waterfall edge! Carpenters came in and installed the step to our home theatre, fixed and patched a large number of wall imperfections and fixed the gap between the stairs and the gyprock. They also installed all of the outdoor square cornices in the balcony, laid the small tile splashbacks in 3 bathrooms and put the final fitting for the aircon fittings. Last but definitely not least the Hills Hub was installed meaning all TV points and data outlets were installed along with the alarm system.

Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 99Sep 17, 2017 7:02 am 17 September 2017: We are getting closer and closer to our endgame in our building journey. Had a chat to our SS and he said that we have a tentative PCI date for 3rd October which had me shouting for joy over the phone to my wife! He says if all goes according to plan we may even get keys between 10 - 17 October which would be amazing. So what happened this week? Well let me tell you! All electrical was completed. This included the downlights to everything and also included our "earrings" at the front of the house and pendants in the kitchen which we are ecstatic that they are all working together. Not to mention the fact that we were so surprised when the lights actually turned on and we could see them in all their glory for the first time! All wardrobe, linen and pantry fitouts were also done and look ridiculously awesome. (WIR brought a tear to my wife's eye!). We are nearly there. Plumbing is due to be finalised on Tuesday. Painters are giving final coats on Friday. Can't wait to see the finished product. Lot of pictures coming so be warned.
