Re: 1st home build Clearview SA with Hickinbotham 45May 01, 2018 7:00 pm How annoying with the brickies - hope the inside out process works well for you guys. Re: 1st home build Clearview SA with Hickinbotham 46May 22, 2018 10:28 pm Some 3 weeks later and still no brickies and consultant doesn't know when they will start "but should be soon. " 🤣 it also should not affect our competition date of 20-22 weeks from slab. My calculation put that between 1st to 15th August so we're just under half way. Consultant said once joinery begins house will usually be completed in 6 weeks. All the electrical wiring and plumbing looks done just wish these brickies would hurry up. Finally got told to remove the scrap soil, waiting for a quote tomorrow. Waiting to hear back from real estate agent to see if owner will allow us a few extra weeks rental over our lease...🤞 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 ⋅ Re: 1st home build Clearview SA with Hickinbotham 47May 22, 2018 11:30 pm c'mon brickies! we've also heard that there is a concreter shortage which might affect driveways but the inside is looking nice and neat.

Re: 1st home build Clearview SA with Hickinbotham 49May 25, 2018 10:43 am Have you heard from your real estate agent yet? We were lucky to get a 10 month lease and ability to extend week by week if needed. Lease expires in mid October, so think we'll will be well and truly moved by then Re: 1st home build Clearview SA with Hickinbotham 50May 25, 2018 10:57 am Guy T Nawsome c'mon brickies! we've also heard that there is a concreter shortage which might affect driveways but the inside is looking nice and neat. Hi! Sorry to hear your brickwork has been delayed. I’ve been following your thread for a awhile now (love your floor plan by the way). I just wanted to ask some questions with regard to your concreting - Did you get the alfresco concreted as part of the slab or are you getting this done after handover? Also, who are you going through for your concreting and Do you know how much roughly per square meter they charge?
