Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 13Apr 05, 2017 1:50 pm So since my last post, we have settled on the land - this happened on 24th of March . Now we are at the very very last stage of council approval - and should have full development approval this week. From there, Statesman review our file, and we get a date that we will be Released to Construction!! Hoping that we will have slab laid before the end of April, as this will give us a great head start over the winter months Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 15Jul 04, 2017 9:43 am Hi ckfd!! Since my last post we have had a bit of a delay. The builder missed a plasterboard requirement in our Land Management Agreement. This is to dampen sound from the train line that runs behind our block. All of the other requirements were adhered to but this one. So it was a battle, but in the end came in at a relatively low cost. Unfortunately we will have to pay for this out of our own pocket, as it was discovered after our mortgage had been approved, but never mind!! NOW! To the exciting news..... WE HAVE SLAB! As of yesterday (3 July 2017). Our site works began on Wednesday 21 June, trenches dug and finished by Saturday 24 June, plumbing down on Tuesday 27 June, plastic ready for rio to go down on 29 June, rio down on 30 June (a Friday), and slab completed yesterday, Monday 3 July. Very excited! I think they leave the slab to cure for two or so weeks. How is your build going? I've included a few slab pics too Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 16Jul 04, 2017 9:55 am Exciting!!

Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 18Jul 04, 2017 6:26 pm Congrats!! That's a good looking slab I think delays are just part and parcel of building but hopefully you'll have good progress now that the actual build has started. I'm looking forward to watching yours go up, I'm out north too and work in Gawler so know the area well Re: Statesman Felixstow Alfresco build in Two Wells, SA 19Jul 04, 2017 6:30 pm Yay! That's awesome! We got a letter telling us after the slab was poured it would be approx 2 weeks until the framing would start and it was exactly 2 weeks so I hope it's the same for you!!!
