Have got heaps done in the last couple of months, we have no other life other than this house, lol. So am going to put up a few posts. Had to get the rain water out of the back yard and decided to go with putting in a separate drainage system all the way to the front that does not use the storm water pipes from the house. Just didn't want any hassles with Coral warranties and we can get easy access to all the drainage. Had to dig it all twice after a massive storm hit when we had dug out the drain the first time and filled in all our hard work. Sucked big time.

So we ordered in 170sqm of turf to do from the front boundary all the way down one side of the house to the shed. Luckily for us Mick who brought the turf had his bobcat with him and was able to space the pallets of turf down the side of the house for us so we didn't have to carry each piece too far. With us 2 and a some great help from my parents we had the whole lot done in 2 1/2 hours, damn impressive.

When we first moved in we really wanted to have plantation shutters on our double hung windows but we wanted them to double as security as well so that we could open them if we wanted to and have a good view outside without security screens but that when they were closed and locked they would give us really good security. Seriously expensive to go down this path as we found out but after a bit of searching found a company that just makes them to your specs. We did all the work, measurements and design, extras etc, placed our order and when they were ready I went and picked them up and we installed them ourselves. Saved us soooo much money doing it this way and they are fantastic. What we ended up with are aluminium security shutters that are key locked top and bottom and hinged so that we can unlock them and open them up when we are home. They are so nice. We also got some timber shutters for the space between our master bedroom and ensuite, they look great too and really give the master a resort feel.

You've been working hard. Re: Coral homes daydream 30 at Logan Village 180Jun 22, 2015 11:00 am It looks great jwbear! Can you send me a PM with the details of the shutter company? We're still in two minds about what to do at the front of our house with the boys' rooms, but these might be a good option. I never realised how much of a difference a nice lawn makes. You guys did a great job laying all that turf Follow my Coral Daydream 28 build: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72384 Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 14711 In Qld it is a requirement that a builder must have a cost breakdown, for building a home to the same specification, with the same inclusions and the same finish. So ask… 1 4746 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 77702 |
