I started our thread too early (!) but at the time I had no idea it was going to drag out so long... Congrats on all your progress to date, you're up to the exciting bit now! Love the option (a) facade the best... All the best! Will be watching your build carefully! ~ cheers, J _______________________________________________________________ We're a knockdown | rebuild ~ Melb SE burbs Building modified version of the Fairhaven Glenaire Homeone thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=28429 _______________________________________________________________ Re: Our Knockdown Rebuild Project - External Colour Selectio 14May 31, 2010 9:56 am Hi guys, any action on site? where are you up to? what have you decided with the windows? updates please?

I started our thread too early (!) but at the time I had no idea it was going to drag out so long... I thought the knockdown part would be the easy bit. Abolish power & gas, then knock it over. Didn't expect the lengthy delay in obtaining the permit! If I had my time again I would have organised the permit myself - would have gone direct to a builder surveyor and organised the paperwork. I think it took about 4 months to get the permit from when we provide the demo company copy of title, etc. Quote: Hi guys, any action on site? where are you up to? what have you decided with the windows? updates please? Met with builder last week and confirmed external colour selections.... Bricks: Austral Newport Mortar: White Colourbond Roof: Woodland Grey Gutters: Woodland Grey Fascia: Paperbark Downpipes: Paperbark Window Frames: Pottery (similar to Paperbark) Garage Door: Slimline in Dawn (dark wood style) Rear Garage Door: Paperbark Front Door: Colour not confirmed (thinking Jasper??, will also have a security door so will not really be visable from the street) Front Door Sytle: Corinthian Madison - PMAD104 Went with option A windows.. was the builders recommendations. Time will tell if it was the right choice! Received building permit last week. Builder was also onsite last week and staked out the house area. Good to see some progress. Today is meant to be sewer\waste works however when I drove past this morning there was no sign of any action. Builder was talking bricks in 3-4 weeks so expecting some movement soon!

Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The framing has started. This week should see the walls up and the bricking started. Looking forward to being able to finally walk through when we have walls! Walked through on the weekend, the slab is all drawn up with red lines where the walls will go but not quite the same as having them up!
