Im getting conflicting advise from family and friends. What size land are you on? I personally would do fences Drive way then garden I agree; I would do fences, then driveway, then landscaping. Laying your driveway before landscaping will allow you to establish ground heights and that way you'll know how low to cut the soil for your lawn and gardens. Re: Who is building with Beechwood 14432Feb 20, 2017 4:37 pm Tom2016 Frame got delivered today ready to be erected on Wednesday. Sounds like it will start moving fairly quickly now with electrical rough in about 4 - 5 weeks time. Meet the new SS Friday and we have Scott, normally works the Nowra north area but they still haven't got a permanent one for the southern Shoalhaven. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We had Scott for a very short time whilst darren was away. He was great too. 20/11/15 - Settled land 06/11/15 - Request 1st tender BH 21/04/16 - Colour Selections and Contracts Signed 31/05/16 - Commencement Letter 24/06.16 - Started work onsite - cut and benching begun Re: Who is building with Beechwood 14433Feb 20, 2017 4:41 pm Broadynest Needamoneytree Balk I am in need of some advice.

Laying your driveway before landscaping will allow you to establish ground heights and that way you'll know how low to cut the soil for your lawn and gardens. All i can say is make sure you let the land settle before you get driveway cos if you get any sink holes BH won't take any resposibility for it because the land hadn't settled. Not our fault the plumber dug up to fix a pipe blockage that could have just been flushed.

Will existing jobs be completed with Costa? I wonder what has caused this change. We had a call from BW today as I raised that concern last Saturday to our consultant and she said we will get a call from the electrician nearing to the date that they need to put electrical but NO mention of Costa anymore so you might add well ring your site manager or call BW directly if you have abby outstanding jobs with Costa buildingourhumblehome.blogspot.com.au Re: Who is building with Beechwood 14436Feb 20, 2017 5:45 pm tapasr_Lexia4 kdrb2016 Has anyone got any more info on the Costa electrician issue?

When i asked why the change i was told it was due to customer complaints on their price points and efficiency (they were taking longer then agreed and therefore delaying builds). I am with Costas and ill have to give michael a ring tomorrow to find out what in gods name this means for me (in excess of $9,000 in electrical upgrades ). I will keep you all informed. Balk.
