How many brickies were actually working on the team? We had a small crew of only 3 (2 brick layers plus an apprentice) so it took them a fair bit of time to brick. We had rain delays and one side of our house falls by 1.6m so they had to erect scaffolding to brick right up to the top. yes it was super quick even my SS was astonished he thinks they worked 24x7, they were only 3.

Wow, I would say that would have had to work from sun up to sun down to get your house done in just 5 days. I thought you would have had more brickies on board to get your whole house done in that amount of time.

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 6553Jul 18, 2013 12:40 pm Granadz Drysdale yep got to go in and reselect.. Di Lorenzo also called us during construction to go in and reselect our feature tile. That's one problem of having to select tiles 2 to 3 months before construction starts as tiles can be discontinued by the time your home gets to tiling stage....

It's one thing I'm a bit concerned about. We chose everything in December and we won't have a slab until next month. Hope you can find something else you like. Congrats on the slab Sheffield25!!!

Specifically interested in the diameter of the noggins I need to request EB. They'll need to put it where I have fan provisionings. Also, any idea on cost of extra noggins? Thanks. Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 6559Jul 18, 2013 1:59 pm Muzzy, I was advised to contact HSI for noggins for fans by my CSA. HunterSheffield has noggins noted on their electrical plans for the provision of fans, where as I've asked for the provision of fans in the bedrooms and alfresco and my plans do not note noggins. My PCV for noggins include: Provide 1No. additional row of noggings to the following walls: *Foyer/Garage common wall *Living/Ensuite/WIR common wall *Study/Living common wall *Family/Hallway common wall *Family/Rumpus common wall *Rumpus/Laundry common wall *Rumpus rear elevation wall $180.00 Provide 1No. additional row of noggings to the Meals in between ceiling joists: *Additional noggings to begin mid way on Alfresco/Meals wall and continue up to kitchen cabinetry. *This is to make provision for future light pendant by client $30.00 Sorry for the quick copy / paste - I have to be quick on the replies at work HTH Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 6560Jul 18, 2013 2:06 pm muzzy Hi All, Anyone know or have experience with installing their own fans after handover? Specifically interested in the diameter of the noggins I need to request EB. They'll need to put it where I have fan provisionings. Also, any idea on cost of extra noggins? Thanks. Hi muzzy, we got extra noggins plus the fan+light connection in the centre of every room. They didn't charge anything to us as we spent around 11k. Our sparky assembled the fan and replace the batten holder with the fan and changed the plate to include the fan controller. Only one room nogging was not aligned properly so there are few small holes which are touched up + sanded and will paint later on. One thing we need to make sure if we don't get EB to do the lightning so be prepare for the touch ups after all the lightning which is not a big job but time consuming. I built with EB back on 2009.
