Mine wasn't allowed as we have the 2nd storey short of the 1st floor on one side. Hope that makes sense. have a few optiosn but all were expensive. Went with cladding. Re: Building a Sunnydale with Clarendon 80Nov 05, 2011 4:56 pm I would have liked brick all the way, however, we have cladding on the first floor across the front, on the side above the garage and half of the back - above the family room area. As rjg wrote, the garage section is above thin air! So, to provide the reinforcing steel that would be able to support the bricks we were told would be cost inhibitive and change the feel of the façade (which is why the rest of the front has cladding). Instead of the horizontal cladding that was offered, we went with blue-board and a rendered look. I notice Clarendon now have a special on that....oh well, swings and round-abouts! Insulation wrapping seems to be standard here in Victoria. I don’t know if there is a building reason as to whether you should do the roof or the walls first…but, in my amateur opinion, it is the frame that holds the roof, not the bricks. The frame and trusses may have a little bit of movement once the roof tiles are put on, so bricking after the roof is on may be easier to then make adjustments if required. Back to the build… Confirmed some insulations between the garage room and the first floor. The brickies have been working really hard, not quite finished the ground floor but are really close to having that done… Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Running some data cabling through the house, anyone got any thoughts on heights and positions?
