Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 32Apr 01, 2022 8:42 am Noname Intripidlol ...and 2) because I can. You still sure about that, working off pre pandemic pricing? You're missing the point that's being made. Its not to build a sh!tbox, but to use your brain. Are you familiar with diminishing return? In simple terms, there is a point where continuing to press for a specificc outcome requires more energy/money/effort (whatever) than the thing is worth. Passivehaus certification is a piece of paper. There are passivehause builders that will build you the same house using the same principles to within an inch of passivhaus certification without the piece of paper certifying it as passivehaus for less. You know, perhaps still fitting in your budget. Buuuuut if you want that piece of paper, you go for it. I'm sure the warm and fuzzies it gives you will be worth it. PassiveHaus certification doesn't cost much. Actually building it to the spec is where most of the costs are.

Oh please, don't talk about assumptions when the first thing you did was try to lecture me on dimishing returns. Quick get the notebook, you're obviously the only person in the world with a grasp on basic economics. And while you're accusing me of assumptions, keep tossing out your own like you know anything about my personal relationships Also keep believing you know what's best for people and your opinion is holier than thou, whilst thinking you're taking the higher ground with your backhanded posts Oh nooooooo I'm paying more than I need to for minimal performance increase, that must mean I'm a crazy person!!!!!!!!! Go play in traffic, middle aged loser Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 34Apr 01, 2022 9:43 am Intripidlol Oh please, don't talk about assumptions when the first thing you did was try to lecture me on dimishing returns.

Go play in traffic, middle aged loser lol. keep it up. I like reading this, what did you call it, "Word vomit"? Everything about how you write betrays your assumed intelligence. and yes, you have displayed you are legitimately an idiot, if not by the simple fact of this - Intripidlol Is that 20 to 30% more post pandemic? Because our budget was for pre pandemic prices... with the increase I'm not even sure if our budget can facilitate our build anymore. what sort of idiot pretends to understand economics, but not be acutely aware of the change of costs associated with materials, services and other related inputs for a project they've been working on for the last +2 years? You've spoken to 70 architects and builders but yet somehow the discussion around increased costs and your budget hasn't been a topic in +2 years? You must think we are idiots. When working on design, budget is central to discussions. It literally informs the design. You've already demonstrated you either live under a rock or are stupid, or both. My guess is both, because the last time i saw the type of language that includes "KYS", "play in traffic", "pleb", "pauper" language was in online gaming, which would explain literally everything. Dark matter scientist, can breathe underwater, mind reader and can freeze matter just by willing it. Trust me, its in my sig. Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 35Apr 01, 2022 10:53 am Are you on the spectrum? Do you have a cognitive impairment? I literally said my original construction budget was completely within reason and feasible at the time. To be fair I am probably in the wrong here as I should have clarified a bit better: when we finally engaged our architect last year, it was discussed with both preferred builder and architect we could get away with about 750k for our brief, leaving 250k for contingency and 'would like to have' luxuries e.g. basement. This was after covid started, but the massive price inflation for building had not hit in Adelaide yet. Throughout the design process over the last year (idk where your two years came from) estimated costs for us has increased beyond the 750k, hence my comment that we're unsure if 1m can cover the increased costs, duh. At this stage we're apparently on the edge, but after quotation we may have to either increase our spend or remove some of the bonus/wishlist features. This must be really hard for your small brain to understand, considering I have not stated anywhere that I'm not aware of the price increases. Good assumption I guess, spastic. I will say that you have astute observation skills re: gaming, most of my grossly vitorlic language I picked up gaming as a child, but I still enjoy throwing occasion shade at retards like you Enjoy life being a below average person in your below average volume build P.s. who the hell says pleb and pauper when playing games, that was from high school idiot Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 36Apr 01, 2022 11:02 am Spastic, small brain, retard, spectrum, high school. This makes more and more sense as you keep posting. Your insults are even childish. Dark matter scientist, can breathe underwater, mind reader and can freeze matter just by willing it. Trust me, its in my sig. Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 37Apr 01, 2022 11:11 am Yeah, because you don't deserve the basic respect I would usually afford to another human being, so I choose to speak to you like you're an animal. Like I said before, always remember, you posing as if you're somebody important with your 700 posts and backhanded insults masked as advice literally mean nothing in the real world. It's pretty evident where you are in life. Enjoy your project home and nitpicking budgets to save every dollar 😊 Hopefully someone you love dearly gets diagnosed with extremely aggressive lewy body dementia in the next few days. Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 38Apr 01, 2022 11:33 am hey guys, pretty sad direction this has gone, just stop all the personal insults and respect differences of opinion. there are some pretty offensive posts here, offensive particularly to disadvantaged members of society. i don’t think any of you would like your kids saying this soft of stuff in the schoolyard and the rest of us don’t enjoy reading it. Go for a walk, cool off and send them a pm telling them your concerns Re: Different types/levels/tiers of building companies 39Apr 01, 2022 12:14 pm Intripidlol Yeah, because you don't deserve the basic respect I would usually afford to another human being, so I choose to speak to you like you're an animal.

Enjoy your project home and nitpicking budgets to save every dollar 😊 Hopefully someone you love dearly gets diagnosed with extremely aggressive lewy body dementia in the next few days. my posts have zero to do with the equation. The fact you think that I think it does, again betrays your assumed intelligence. You think post count = relevance? that's on you. chasing likes, reposts, call outs. 100% you're a thot or the male equivalent. I doubt you've even started any build process. Spoken to "70 architects and builders and have notes on everyone of them". HA! Almost everything about your posts and absence on the forums screams you realised you're out of luck in timing and finance. A ping in your inbox alerted you to your old account when someone necro'd your post. You feel upset you've gotten nowhere, so you're trying to flex like a little script kiddie. But like a script kiddie without skill, I'm 100% confident, you and MAYBE only one other person here are the only ones who cant see you're literally full of it. Enjoy your games of League buddy. Youre probably a nobody there too. In my experience, people who behave like you blame everyone else in their teams for their failures. That's what makes you a nobody. best wishes buddy.

The Centre pillar one side sits proud to the other. Can I change 2 doors into one. Please see picture. 0 7519 I might be misunderstanding.... but I would be more inclined to cut a section out from the cinder block wall and place the cistern in the cinder block wall.
