We have now officially started our new home Yesterday they did the peg out for the earthworks, then today the bobcat came in with heaps of soil/sand and spread it all out flat. We are having a screw in pier system which will be done tomorrow after the site meeting at 7.30am. Aparently because we have a HP soil type they will have to scarify the area. Then hopefully the plumbers will be in on monday next week. Anyhoo, here are a few pics if you are interested. View from the front.

Our start date was about 2 months after we had approval and all modifications finished. Good luck with the rest of the build, I hope it all goes smooth. Re: Our "Daydream"279"....

I will post some pics later tonight if anyone is interested. We also were told today that the frames will start going up tomorrow. They were delivered last week(friday) I just also want to say that I know many people say about the hardache of building, but so far our builder has been great.

It's OURS!!! carpet in 39Dec 03, 2008 7:20 am Looks good so far, are the drainpipes I can see in the pictures for a sealed rainwater system? Is this now a requirement in QLD?

Is this now a requirement in QLD? regards sean Not sure what you mean by a sealed rainwater system.? We have no town water or sewage at our new place and will rely totally on rainwater and our water treatment system. We actually prefer this way cause our rates are really cheap! about 900 or so per year Thanks everyong for the comments about the trees.. We just love this rural estate.Its called Oakhurst Gardens. love the flat block and the SPACE!! just over 1 acre. and best of all its only about 4 klms from town. Built a modified "Daydream 279" .. Cor@l Homes on a flat 4473m block!! And lov'n it!!! 1 11004 1 15753 they can, it's a fairly standard solution when the slab isn't recessed. the falls need to be in the main floor, if it hasn't been done then you need to ask them to redo… 4 6585 |
