Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Oct 01, 2008 12:05 am Hello,
Oh, how I wish I had discovered this site at the beginning of the whole building process! We are almost at the end of the building. However, I thought I'd share some photos of the end result. We ended up going with Cavalier Homes North West (Sydney) and were really happy. Contrary to what I have read on this site, we were actually able to negotiate many things with our builder! I was apprehensive about going with such a small company but after reading some stories on this site, I have quickly realised that going with a well known company doesn't necessarily mean that you won't have problems! I'm not sure quite how to post photos on here but if you click on the following link, I think it will take you to the photos that my husband put up for me on Facebook. http://www.new.facebook.com/album.php?a ... =595999135 Thanks Re: Our Dream House 2Oct 01, 2008 12:13 am Welcome Sophiebear,
Nice house. I like the bricks and bathroom tiles in particular. If you don't mind me asking, what bricks did you use? Also, the two storey column to the left of the house looks interesting. Does it serve a function? Cheers, Casa Demolition August 2009, Construction Started September 2009, Completed December 2010 Re: Our Dream House 3Oct 01, 2008 7:58 am Quote: Nice house.

I think the storey column to the left of the house had something to do with load-bearing issues. I'm not entirely sure though! I'm getting very excited because we get the keys early next week. All that has to be completed now is the landscaping...yipee!!!!!

That would make certain builders lift their game! of course there are legal avenues. You've already mentioned it. Sue them. I find it odd that lawyers wouldnt be willing to take on the case, given CCT evidence and… 1 23616 "Losers" "humanity" "off time" "your" "top notch" "love symbol" Sounds like ponzo is done using other people's toilets 37 23738 |
