Browse Forums Building A New House Sekisui / Burbank -our Acacia home- Bricks Complete! 415Oct 02, 2017 6:18 am shazaw I’m not sure what we will do with the space other than turf it, I wanted a concrete path all down the garage side but I think it would be too much to do it all. Now the fence is up on the garage side and at the back of the house we can see the size of the garden now and the amount of fill we will need Re: Sekisui / Burbank -our Acacia home- Bricks Complete! 416Oct 02, 2017 5:18 pm Went up to the site this morning on our way to the cinema as I wanted to take some photos, there were two carpenters there when I arrived, I asked what they would be doing and one of them pointed to his phone and told me he ‘had a list of jobs’ from our temp SS they had to work through. Was good to see some work being done! Re: Sekisui / Burbank -our Acacia home- Bricks Complete! 417Oct 14, 2017 12:24 pm Our SS is back, the frame inspection is complete and was passed. Not completely sure if they did ALL the recommendations from the inspection report. The brick errors will be done but need to keep on at them (yet again) to make sure they are sorted. All noggins are in for all lights and wall mounted TVs Insulation is almost all done some of the first floor ceiling needs completing and they haven’t done the wall between two of the bedrooms we were promised so have texted our SS to ask that this is done. Gyprock is booked for this Thursday Stairs booked for 30/10 Hope this all happens. Sick of delays and holdups. We have no doors anywhere except glass sliders the front door brick surround isn’t even complete so no idea how that’s going to all work out! The garage is full of frames which will be used for the pergoda that wraps around the front of the house. Those frames have been on site since February and sitting in a lot of water for much of that time, goodness knows how warped they will be when they are finally put up! Re: Sekisui / Burbank -our Acacia home- Bricks Complete! 418Oct 14, 2017 5:25 pm Good that you have all nogging sorted out, I regretted not having extra nogging over stair wall for picture frame. Have you recheck all electrical power points location before they put gyprock in. Carpenters take time to install doors at my place. They move at snail's pace. My build seem to be moving fast but there are 23 items left to do. Hopefully you will move in earlier than April.

I spoke with Vacarro direct and they installed an extra noggin and explained the missing electrical plates were intentional as they will have a different fitting after gyprock. Happy with the electrics, even the inspector noted that the electrical rough in was well done We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds. The quote above was purely for “pre-wiring” so the blinds company can install the motors and blinds. That’s why we… 5 16262 of course there are legal avenues. You've already mentioned it. Sue them.
