I hope the momentum continues for you Re: Duke's Double - Melville WA 47Apr 12, 2014 6:36 pm Re: Duke's Double - Melville WA 48Apr 12, 2014 10:15 pm I had to look twice, i thought the two story house in the photos was yours, thought i had missed "brick work started" update !! Yay for footings and retaining wall though Re: Duke's Double - Melville WA 49Apr 15, 2014 9:06 pm We had some bricks delivered today, though they're for the brick build ups at the front which need to go in before slab. Builder does seem organised though, it's good to see things happening Re: Duke's Double - Melville WA 50Apr 23, 2014 10:12 pm Re: Duke's Double - Melville WA 53Apr 24, 2014 7:09 pm Popped past to catch up .... Wow, things are moving fast! Looking forward to seeing this build.

Looks like they're filling in behind the brickwork with soil to get it level and ready for the slab. Fingers crossed it happens this week.

Did you get any seperate pricing for the brickwork retaining costs or was that built into the overall house cost? Up where we will be building there are 2 places that have used this type of retaining on a large scale (~2.0m high) and I have heard it is very expensive so their walls must be costing them mega bucks. We hired Darbecca to do every stage inspection, and I strongly recommend them to anyone that asks me. They were amazing.
