We had our meeting today, things went well. The meeting went for over two hours and they seemed to be ahead of the game for all the "structural" questions I asked them, so that was a good thing. I asked about underground a rain-water tank, we have been thinking about a 5,000 litre plastic one, he said they do a 9,000 litre concrete one cheaper. I asked about "recessing" the tracks for the stacker sliding patio doors, he said that was the way they always did it. I asked them what sort of plasterboard they used for various areas and their answers met the ones I had on my "cheat-sheet" of things to check !! We asked many things like that and I don't think we surprised them once It's fair to say that generally they had the answers off of the top of their heads (regarding feasibility / options and a "ball-park" price ) so that gave us a lot of confidence too. I also gave them (our customised) list from the "Things you forgot thread" viewtopic.php?f=31&t=5823 , and just left it with them, along with our 100 or so PP slides........They can have fun reading those and seeing what (if any ) sense they can make out of them. We'll go through them with a fine-tooth comb at our next (more formal) meeting !!! So.......we're going to give them the $$'s for the PWA (apparently that's a Preliminary Work Agreement). That's going to get us ................ Design and drafting fees for the proposed new development Preliminary footing design by qualified engineer Site level and drainage plan by qualified engineer Structural plans by qualified engineer Application fee for council planning consent "Let the games begin" P_D .

Hopefully that will give us a fixed footing price before we sign the contract. https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43937&start=0 Bought a block in Golden Grove - Jan 2011 Finally finished our design, Mar 2012, *yay* Signed with ADH council consent June 12 Re: Our Blackwood Park hacienda 36Nov 14, 2011 6:39 pm PD, Congratulations you found a builder, we did the same going with a smaller company in the end. We had our own plans and Mitcham council approval allready and had 6 companies quote. The communication and flexability was by far a huge plus. Similarly I investigated the underground tank possibility with supply and sit prices of $3500 for a 5000 litre upto $5000 for a 13640 litre concrete from RI Industries (got full price details if you want). This did not include the earth works. that would would blow that out particularly as our back yard is cut to the rock, so we considered putting it out front which was mostly fill. (Our , B/Park block has a 2.5m rise over 40m depth). Check what the builders idea of 'recessing the stacker track' is as it may not be what you picture. We specified this and still have a small lip, and slight drop to alfresco. nothing we would trip on, so we are happy. What street are you on?

Be interested in further info about the (large) tank, and we'll pass that on to the builder. Made a note to check what they mean by recessing the track, I hadn't thought to question just what they do mean......But I will now We're actually not that far from you, PM sent ....... Cheers, P_D .
