Just wanted to pop back with an update since our build finished. I have to say I couldn't be happier with how everything worked out. DJ Roberts have given us…
Opinion on floor plan
Great plan. I would put insulation in the bed 2 walls to reduce noise from laundry and powder room. Also, bed 4 could have the wardrobe lengthened a little while…
Garden Power Tools - Electric vs Petrol?
We have 3 blowers - 1 petrol, 1 electric, 1 battery operated. I would say the electric with cord gets used the most in our household. It has just as…

Looking forward to seeing your build come together. We are just about finished our house, also in north Brisbane about 5 mins from you. Ours is also a battle-axe…
Anyone else regret building a new home?

Shower door question
Is there a difference in frameless vs semi frameless vs not frameless? Ours swivels on a point so one small section swings in and the rest swings out. Is…

I can see your frustration with the carpet, I'd be furious. Did you take any photos on the day by any chance? I know I was all excited and wanted…
