Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Aveling Build - Rosehill Waters 151Apr 30, 2018 6:18 pm nicolac34 Did a quick drive by today (tend to drive by most days trying to get my 2yo to sleep!) and much to my surprise we had some windows!! The external render has been finished and the front two windows were in and some along the side. No idea what order they are doing things in as we aren’t really getting any updates. Thought we’d be a few weeks from windows as next door haven’t got theirs yet (same builder slab went down 2 weeks before us) It's so hard trying to figure out next steps as every builder i feel does things a little differently. I'm glad i have a portal to help give me an idea. There is a house 2 houses down from me. Slab went down weeks ahead of mine, bricks ahead of me & then their build seemed to stop for 2-3 weeks. Now from the outside and deliveries i saw today it looks like they are ahead of me again. Will be interesting to see when they finish! Good to see you've got progress again Re: Aveling Build - Rosehill Waters 152May 03, 2018 10:22 pm All windows and the stacker doors are now in and the white set plaster has been finished. Not sure what’s happening between now and the end of next week other than some doors for lock up. Hopefully we’ll be surprised again and they’ll lock us up sooner! 😃 Been busy working through quotes over the past couple of days, trying to shave a few thousand off some bits. Think we’ve managed to scale back the dressing room with Lifestyle Wardrobes and we are probably going to scale back the window treatments as well.

Looks like they’re moving along now, 🤞🏻 They keep up the speed for you 😁 Re: Aveling Build - Rosehill Waters 156May 04, 2018 10:32 pm Congrats 🎉 temp doors are considered lock up, shame you are not getting regular updates however at least you have not got the invoice yet 🤣🤣🤣 Re: Aveling Build - Rosehill Waters 159May 11, 2018 8:59 pm Ok so according to Aveling last week wasn’t lock up 🤔 but we are at lock up now! 🙌🏻 Doors are on both externally and internally. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets due to go in next week, undercoat of the ceilings, doors and frames next week as well. External painting to start the end of the week and benchtops going in the following week. Bit of a blow that our bathroom and ensuite wall tiles won’t be in stock until June and if we wait it could mean a 2-3 week delay. We couldn’t find another tile we liked within the tile budget so we may have to wait. Going to have a look at the tile shop and pray they have some new selections!

Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense.
