Yep sure is-buy some wellies! You sink to your ankles :0 I'm putting the pressure on to have our yards both done to a reasonable standard before next winter hits. I couldn't stand the mud either. Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 397Jul 18, 2015 8:26 pm So yesterday (Friday) we got an update saying we will have slab done by the end of the week (we got the email at 2pm Fri :/ ) and frames up mid next week! Buuuuut we don't have a slab yet so how will they frame mid next week? Wondering if they were meant to send this update NEXT week for the week after?! Also, by paying each payment are we essentially signing off on being happy with that particular stage? So if we want to get the slab checked do we do that before we pay? Our build - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=77368 Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 398Jul 18, 2015 8:55 pm Haha katmeow-yes a little! BUT it looks so perfect and smooth I don't want to ruin it lol I think it must be Mahalia-but they usually let it set for a week or more before starting the frames? Little confusing-maybe email back and ask. Super exciting though!!! Re: Is anyone building at Mawson Green, Meadows SA? 399Jul 19, 2015 1:43 pm JakkiT thanks for the offer of fill will check with builder regards actual costs and get back to you. Mahalia if you are going through a bank for finance for your build generally they have a building inspector that goes out and checks the various stages before they pay progressive payments if however if you are funding your own build then it is wise to engage a building inspector to sign off on the various stages before payment is made, hope this helps good luck with it all.

One is big and near the corner and the slab appears to have dropped on an angel there. Feeling stressed about now! Have emailed pics to the builder. Wish you all the best.
