Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The white roof, not the letterbox . It’s like a beacon! We spotted it from a few other vantage points as well - pretty much the only light coloured roof in the area. Up closer, the top roof has been installed. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Unfortunately the entire roof will be done in instalments as the scaffolding is in the way. Builder wants to leave it up for the cladding, painting, etc and they will work their way downwards. Can cladding go in before windows, does anyone know? I’ll have to ask the builder the next time I see him. Re: Custom build Sydney Hills with attached granny flat 76Apr 03, 2019 3:44 pm Hillsbuilds Wow! You got that roof up pretty quick - it's looking good We have taken a setback with the rain. Re: Custom build Sydney Hills with attached granny flat 77Apr 03, 2019 4:10 pm Looks good, looks huge! Maybe the colour makes it look bigger? Or maybe its just big😂 In regards to your question about cladding before windows, my expert opinion (which is not expert in any way, shape or form), would be windows need to go in first, so that the cladding can seal the windows in.... but who knows! What sort of cladding are you using? Do you have a picture of your facade? Assume its very contemporary.

Windows first I would say Re: Custom build Sydney Hills with attached granny flat 79Apr 03, 2019 4:33 pm gablesrocks gogo65 I think you’re right too re the cladding. I was just being hopeful, seeing as our windows are 3 weeks away and the framing is pretty much done, and builder won’t bring the scaff down to do the lower roof - I’m wondering what they’ll do until the windows come in!
