Our site supervisor assured us it would have been picked up but at least this way we avoid future delays We are using K-Spec building inspectors- so far have been very happy with them.

We are now past lock-up stage and beginning to consider internal fit out. The bricking was delayed by a week as a result of a mix up at framing stage. The frame inspection report came back with a requirement for additional cyclone tie downs. By this stage the internal plasterboard was already up and as such some had to be pulled down in order to the additional tie downs to be put in. However, once rectified it was moving quickly again- bricking was completed and plasterboard and architraves completed. This meant the house was fully locked up for the christmas break, ready to begin again in January. Below are some pictures of lock up stage.

I can't believe how fast your build is going! Fingers crossed no more hiccups and that it's all smooth sailing from here - it looks great!

We are completely locked up now and internal fit out has begun. On the external side of things our front facade has started to be rendered, cannot wait to see the whole thing done!

The architraves/door frames and doors are all in and the walk in pantry has been fitted out with shelving and bench tops. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The temporary front door has been replaced with our actual front door (we are super pleased with the decision to go for a larger door and slightly smaller side light). All laundry cabinetry is in (again super happy with the colour choice here & for bathrooms- called Washboard-our colour specialist suggested it and it is perfect, super neutral so will go with any colour tone if we change our mind on soft furnishings but also enough of a pattern to not be boring or plain). Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We met the tiler on site Friday to discuss all the details of wet area tiling and tiling started today with our Laundry floor and rear alfresco. Its all starting to come together! The only setbacks or minor mistakes in this stage have been: - A powerpoint was cutout in the laundry approx half a metre above the bench when we wanted it just above the bench line (cut into splash back) this has since been rectified when we bought to the attention of our SS. - The water tap in the fridge recess was plumbed into the side of the fridge space rather than in the small recess at the back of the fridge space. This has also been rectified. - The gas hot water system (which was altered from solar after the panels would not meet the pitch requirement on the roof, resulting in a credit to us- YAY!) was put on the outside of the brick. We requested it be recessed into the brick so it is not an eyesore- this has since been rectified). We are very pleased with the attentions of Plantation, even when a supplier makes a little error (which is to be expected with so many different trades all the time) our SS has been great about getting onto things and sorting them out. She is so proactive and helpful-- couldn't have asked for a better SS! We have also just sold our current house and now the countdown begins until the move!

Looking real good. I saw your house as i drove past to go to my lot over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised to see how much it had progressed. Was wondering how much there wasnt much of an update on the thread. ? Re: Vienna Q1 build in Capestone, Mango Hill (Plantation Hom 59Jan 30, 2017 9:16 pm It's looking soooo good! I love your bin also, haha, I'm wondering if I should have added one.. might wait til we get our PCV back from colours so I can see how bad it is first ??? I also love all the draws in your kitchen! If you don't mind me asking what was the upgrade price for those? They look great - very practical! The pantry looks great too - I love the dark timber look feature.

How is yours progressing? Mec06. Thanks heaps. We are so excited about the bin hehe, small things! We went all out with our wish list then once we got out PCV back we removed a few things we felt were excessive. We also looked at doing the bin post handover as it would be quite a bit cheaper however it would pull out separately to the cupboard and we decided for cleanliness this way was just simpler! We upgraded the two side cupboards to 2 banks of 3 pot draws - it was $890 for the two sets. We decided it was worthwhile. We are also super excited about a walk in pantry, cannot wait till we are actually living in the spaces!
