Congrats to Wisdom for doing such a fabulous job delivering your dream Simeon McGovern Affordable Custom Homes, We design and build to your budget Ashington Homes www.ashingtonhomes.com.au Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15408Dec 19, 2019 6:25 pm Manhattan52 Wow! Your house is beautiful. Congratulations! Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15409Dec 19, 2019 10:05 pm Manhattan52 your home looks amazing! Such lovely choices and execution. I hope you're loving it! Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15411Dec 20, 2019 5:33 pm Hi all! Our update is that we did not get an update this week. We did get assurances that all the issues found in the independent inspection report will be fixed. So hoping for quality like Manhattan 52 but on a smaller scale. We are looking at a February handover date if everything goes according to schedule. We received detailed quotes from W Landscapes recently. In general, everything was significantly more expensive than the provisional allowance and estimates from the initial site visits which was disappointing. Not by a small amount either. We were hoping to do the driveway if it was under the Provisional Allowance. Interestingly when the guy came out he said it is normally cheaper than the PA and not to worry. However for us, the result has not been there. I think he is going to relook at it for us. Seasons Greetings everyone! And I hope your builds go smoothly.

If you are prepared to wait a little for the landscaping go elsewhere. You will save a fortune. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 15414Dec 22, 2019 1:39 pm G'day Manhattan52. Thanks for taking the time to share the lovely pictures of your home. Hopefully it provides others inspiration and guidance with their builds. I see you utilised the slimline AC grills/vents. How have you found their performance?. I was excited to utilise these in my build, but recent hot days in some of the show homes where they also used slimline grills I noticed they were very noisy. How have you found their noise? I still think they look way nicer than the plastic squares. I guess its function vs form debate here from what I've saw and heard recently.

Have used them in previous projects - one is in northern QLD where the aircon pretty much runs 24/7 and don’t really notice anything. You do hear more air noise if that’s what you mean but doesn’t really bother me. Personally I think they function better projecting air going across rather than down.!

Has anyone any experience with the in-ground or under cover type of covers that sit flush with the paving/decking so you can't see them as cover by a lid?
