Had 2 steel frame houses, one we bought and the other we rented while we built. I will never get another steel frame house ever again.
They are horrible. They are…

These might help you

They repaired it and it was terrible, you could see big dark lines where the dye was different colour. The Ceasarstone rep came out and agreed it was not right…

It's not too dark, we have no under cabinet lighting so if you have some that will make it pop a bit more.with a dark bench it isn't as bright…

Lighter roof is so good in summer!! It really reflects a lot of the heat and helps put less load on aircon.
Our concreter is the best!!! Top guy and top…

If I was going to build again through a volume builder.... It wouldn't be through them that's for sure.

Kitchen is finished. Ended up after quite a few kitchen door sets (I think it was 6 in the end) of crystal gloss all with faults that we swapped over…

Here you go night time and day time

We are on a 15m wide block but our garage is on the boundary. You need 1m of light space between your gutter and your neighbours gutter, if they haven't…

our construction water bill was $55

Wow! Edited post because couldn't say 'd o d g y thing'
It put stars
But it let me put crappy lmao

Yeah DIY.... This house will be much nicer than our previous two as I'm doing all the work from a new slate,
Precious houses were me ripping up/down/out some crappy thing…

I left out the fact I have a pallet of loose bricks on the alfresco that I need to move hahahahahaa
They are going to go where my concrete pavers are…

I think the tiles are going to be the cheapest part

Yeah going to take a little longer to complete.
Need to scrape and level the slab first as Henley left it with concrete clumps all k we it and it's got…

Do it off season and it's heaps cheaper. If you do it in summer or leading into then you will pay top dollar

Got some tiles for the Alfresco yesterday.
Got an absolute steal!!!
Full pallet of 400 X 400 X 10 German Green Limestone tiles from a stone business on Gumtree for $200!!!
That's about…

We went with Mode heating and cooling, our friends who live 2 streets away built same house as us and went with the same company. 2 different installers and both…

Nope. They make you go through the people who installed it which was Dandy Air.

Been a while since updated last, a lot has happened.
Aircon went in without a hitch and is awesome!!!!!
Our kitchen is FINALLY complete and new cupboard doors are a billion…

Yes but it's still pretty average.

We have the same as in the pic above.
It was replaced with a new one the same model.

We have the Vivid tap and double under mount sink package. The tap is okay but water pressure from it sucks balls! We had our first one replaced under warranty…

My understanding was that if the truss doesn't fall on top of a stud then it would likely need double top plate to meet standard. For the sake of couple…

Darren you're a champ and without your expertise and thorough inspections I dr d to think what my house would be like right now.
If anyone ever asks for an inspector…

We didn't have a drop down either so I had them change it. They basically drop it 1 brick height.
In hindsight is would have also like to drop the laundry…

Luke is a top bloke! You're in good hands.

No my original SS now works for Boutique Homes (he was hopeless so never ever build one of their houses lol) replacement SS was a champ! his name is Luke…

That's not correct. If Darbecca or any other inspector find things pre pour that are not to BCA or Australian Standards or not to plan specifications then they have to…

he did my house in Doreen and has done a heap of others in the area. He goes all over the place.
