Thanks for sharing such a detailed update, your plans look amazing so far. I love the garage facade. Do you have any details on the type/material of cladding the will use over the garage door? Any also who will provide the garage door assembly? We are planning our home and we want a flush finish garage door. Hi Larry! Thanks so kind of you to say! The material is black shadowclad. I'm not sure on who does the garage door assembly as it is all done by our builder Thomas Archer. Re: Thomas Archer Hue 42 Bayside Build - 2020/21 18Jun 09, 2020 11:31 am Hi Guys! Bit of a progress update! Block has been demoed (never have I thought a pile of dirt was so sexy) Online Demolition did our demo and did a GREAT job. Even the neighbours commenting on how proactive they were on managing the dust from their work. They also have reused a lot of the materials from our home so it is nice to know that there'll be a next chapter and repurposing. They also stopped work to accommodate the neighbours and kept the road clean throughout their stay.

We are in a very similar position with you, having just had our tender discussion recently. Just decided to create an account after spending so much time on here reading only. Just 2 comments / questions from me: - We spent a lot of time discussing garage width with them as I think their standard is 5.5m internal, which I think is the size of yours. We finally were able to increase to 5.9m and even then I think it's still 100-200mm smaller than what i'd like. I measured out my current and its 5.9m, but that doesn't allow you to have both cars with their doors open fully. Just something you may want to consider. - I see that you are installing your benchtop post handover. Is there a reason for this? cost? thanks We spent close to 2 years in a process with TA. It was horrible..... we got to tender, and the first cut was 50% over our budget which "they care such about meeting ". We… 18 27268 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17591 Hi, did you get any money from insurance? if you did, does it match what you've already paid the builders? 3 9565 |
