This week saw our plumbing and electrical, piers and footings, HSTP installation and getting ready for the slab to be poured on Monday. Today we spent all day planting trees. The ground is so dry and the soil is horrible clay. Even eith Hubbys motorized hole digger it didn't really help. Back out there tomorrow to finish off. At our colour appointmrnt we wanted to swap some of the upgraded fixtures to the other bathroom and so forth. Coral were going to charge me twice for the same taps just in different rooms. I took it out and asked our SS and we are able to change them at no cost. Winning Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Coral Homes Marcoola 52Sep 18, 2017 8:16 am Following along.

Re: Coral Homes Marcoola 60Sep 28, 2017 8:51 am H Family Hudson House Looks great! We are getting a start on the steel frames today, so excited! Interested to see how quickly it goes up being steel. They are anticipating 38 deg here today my poor builders will boil. Yes certainly. Our SS is dealing with the drama of the metal framing being dropped and scraping our slab so there is an expensive repair for the contractors that delivered it. Luckily Coral are onto it and we will progress. same here with the weather 37 degrees out at Gilston for our poor chippy today, hope they have hats and sunscreen. 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 14356 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.
