Browse Forums Building A New House Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 41Nov 09, 2017 5:37 pm We are now ready for concrete I think, there was a lot of progress this week workers were at the block every day this week trenches were dug in 2 days Then plumbing was done the next day and then today the plastic was laid and the steel reinforcement was put in !! The 80 tonne that was supposed to be left over and taken away we asked if it could be left and spread out on the low side of the block They were happy to do it but charged us bob cat hire time for that which was a good outcome ! Also got a form from the council that I have to put in that costs $43 to submit so the electricity can be dug from my land border to the nearest stobie pole Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 42Nov 09, 2017 6:36 pm Wahoo it starts!!

Nothing really happened for a while after the slab was poured our water tanks delayed us a bit then the tanks took some extra time and we finally we were able to give Fairmont the all clear to go ahead with framing. The frame was completed in 4 days and was finished on the 21st of December Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 47Jan 15, 2018 6:48 pm Made a little video if any cares to watch it of a walk through my house at the framing stage https://youtu.be/_hYTtBdNtsE Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 50Jan 24, 2018 9:37 am We got our windows and sliding doors installed yesterday Looks great but one thing I noticed is this part of the window in the second photo is zoomed in on the part that has been cut and not touched up it seems Stands out like crazy against the black frames You can see it on the full size window pic if you zoom in at the top and bottom the cut is about an inch long Anyone ever notice this on their A&L windows ?

We have light frames so I hadnt even noticed! Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 56Feb 12, 2018 5:12 pm Hey Thanks for the reply that’s interesting my brother works in the window industry and told me that all the windows they do would be like that but it’s good to get confirmation from someone else Cheers Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 57Feb 14, 2018 2:03 pm haven't looked at your thread for a while - and wow. looks like they are really moving with it now. Still looking forward to seeing your bathroom and kitchen Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 58Feb 22, 2018 1:52 pm Hi Dan. I would love to see some photos of the front of your house with the Mystique brick. We just had our final builder's interview yesterday and chose Mystique – I can not find hardly any photos of it online, and would love to see how it turns out when complete. Thanks. Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 59Feb 22, 2018 3:29 pm Front is nearly finished will post photos once it’s completed Re: New House Build KDR Blackwood SA Fairmont Homes 'The Gra 60Feb 22, 2018 3:42 pm Also Lindsay Mystique was relatively new when we chose it and so was even harder to find photos of it. It was so new that the display wall at pgh was only about 2 months old. Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes. I am looking for feedback on them from others who have built with them. 0 13299 We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 36901 |
