Hi all,
Just a quick note to say handover is booked in for tomorrow

Hi everyone, I'm without internet access so haven't been able to reply sooner - rest assured I haven't moved in yet, unfortunately. Certificate of Occupancy has been issued, but due…

Glad you're back, EM
How'd your site meeting go with the SS? Any updates?

Latest pics from the weekend:

-- Hard to see, but the tiles in the toilet look as…

Hi Shelz, I'm not actually sure but I will check for you the next time I am down and let you know. Just had a squiz at your thread, your…

UPDATE - Tiling has started! Just went for a stickybeak through the windows this morning and saw that the tiled splashback in the kitchen and laundry is now in. Floor…

Thanks, charlie! I must admit, I am still unsure of how I feel about all the internal colours But I'm sure I will get…

Thanks, Shelz
The SS still thinks it will be…

Yikes! In that case there's definitely a need for them to keep their boots mud-free, in my case though I have no flooring/tiling/carpets down at all. I hope that the…

It's been a while since I've updated, but I managed to get down to the house to take a few pics today. Apologies for the poor quality of some.

I am so mad, I need to vent as it's only Sunday and can't speak to the SS or CSC until tomorrow. I went down to the house today to…

Wow EM! It's looking great!! You're well and truly catching up to me, if we're not even already. Fingers crossed M keep up the good work and we're both in…

Great idea getting a larger front door, Shelz it looks fantastic I had no idea it could be…

Hi everyone, sorry for my slackness! I've had a few things come up (non-house related) and have neglected this thread and my daily house snooping. I feel like I've let…

Thanks, EM Your plaster can't be very far off now. It was so exciting seeing it all up, it's really feeling like…

I agree, the Kingston looks great and yes, it too wasn't around at the time of selection for me otherwise I would have definitely gone with that facade.
I'm not too…

Thanks Charlie & EM
I've still been able to get access via some unlocked doors, so I guess 'lock-up' is only lock-up on paper…

I can honestly say I didn't even consider having a light coloured roof as I had no idea about it having any effect on energy efficiency at the time …

I think it was approx. $3k from memory; they've included it in the base price for my final contract so I don't have the break-up of the actual cost, unfortunately.

You can add me to the 'doing it solo with an animal avatar' club also

I think I was lucky enough to get in when they still had their full range, as I've since heard through here that they have downsized their tile range dramatically.…

I've had to increase the standard pitch on my roof from 22.5 degrees to 25 degrees due to the covenants imposed by the land developers. For the increase, M3tr!con have…

Oh wow Princess1... I don't know if this is normal or not, but I have just posted some pics up on my thread…

I just love, love, love that bathtub! It looks absolutely devine! Great choice shelz!!
I'm not too sure what I will use the garage extension for just yet, as I don't…

Wow shelz! It's all starting, how exciting! The block looks really big, too and the view is lovely

Hi Jeffsy, I pretty much started with an idea of what I did'nt like and wanted to avoid (i.e. orange/red bricks), then started looking at existing houses with colourings that…

Thanks, charlie You're starting to catch up now It does seem to happen very quickly once it all…

Both good choices, either way I don't think you can go wrong

Welcome, melzz
I'm not sure if there are many others on here who have built in HS to compare site costs to, but mine…

Thanks, Rowena I can't wait to test it out, come Summer.

I've just gone through my contract and they've included the price of the…
