No thats prefab. By stick build I mean conventional roof framing.
Patio Roof Trusses
If your going to make your own trusses you might as well just stick build the roof instead to save yourself some time.

Get a real cat and that should solve the problem
Eaves - 450mm vs 600mm

$53,000 for bricklaying (LABOUR ONLY)

Approval to move driveway
You would need to talk to your local council and they will tell you the way to go about it.

5mm solid timber flooring? I cant say I have seen it before but I don't think I would want to because it just sounds cheap and nasty. Once it is…

Ducted heating blows cold air first 20-30 seconds.
What is the problem here? 20 seconds 30 seconds what does it matter? Its basic common sense isn't it? You cant expect instant heat.

Dark render on blueboard? Is it ok?
colour shouldn't matter and I would think that darker colours would hide any flaws that may appear.
Colex Homes
That's definitely not right and there should be a final walk through (pre handover inspection) before the handover is finalised. What you describe doesn't sound right to me.
