So when they poured the driveway they hit the pipe? No they hit the pipe when they put up the bracing for the drop edge beams. Apparently they would have known when the hit it. Then they pulled the stake out and poured the garage floor slab with the concrete going straight into the stake hole and into the pipe.

Stegbar puts a note on their windows that the plastic film must be removed within 3 months delivery to site. Not sure if its the wrap on the frames or blue wrap on the glass etc. Re: KDR - Rawson Chifley 42 mark ii in Newcastle. 215Oct 19, 2019 1:17 pm luxbuild Hi Salfield, Do you still have the plastic wrap on your windows?

Not sure if its the wrap on the frames or blue wrap on the glass etc. Finally removed the last of it yesterday. It’s the blue film on the windows. Rawson have punted stegbar and gone with a new supplier. Yes it does say that. I wanted to pull it off myself during the early stages but didn’t want to risk a window getting scratched and they blamed me for doing it. Re: KDR - Rawson Chifley 42 mark ii in Newcastle. 216Oct 20, 2019 9:16 pm Hi Salfield, Good to hear they've managed to remove the film. I see they have a telescopic post/jackpost in the middle of your alfresco. Was that temporary until they cut a wooden post/or built a brick post to support it? Re: KDR - Rawson Chifley 42 mark ii in Newcastle. 217Oct 29, 2019 6:33 pm Hi Salfield. We have our internal colour consultation tomorrow for our Chifley 42 MKii. We are pretty organised in terms of pre-prep for the consult but do you have any advice for things to be aware of / to look out for?

Our SS couldn’t give us an answer as to why that is. 🍺 Have you got a thread yet, would love to see what you guys are doing compared with us.[/quote:1pcnfn1q] Hi Salfield, Good to hear they've managed to remove the film.

They just built the brick around the post I think. The wood one which you can see was supposed to be in a stirrup but it never was done. The ended up tieing into brick once it was done.

Best advice is to go over everything with a fine tooth comb. If you are organised and confident on what you want you should be right. It’s hard to remember everything now. It would be good to come along and offer advice when it was happening. Get everything in writing that you choose. We had an issue with our doors where they agreed to do all the doors in the upgraded style but when they put them in only did downstairs. We blew up but got no where. Always get multiple quotes, no matter how reasonable/cheap you think it is. I remember getting a few quotes for a pool fence, roughly around the same price, thinking the… 5 9771 Just started the Build process for Chifley 42 with Rawson homes, will keep you all posted with the Build progress. 0 3275 We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 38001 |
