Has anyone used Alumiere windows or semi-commercial windows? Did you have any issue with putting roller blinds in the reveals?

I’ve also discovered another HHH build that has just commenced on Morrison Rd, Putney that we’re watching. The Lane Cove one seems to be going well albeit a few concerns…

Rdcool how has your build gone? Any issues or words of wisdom for those of us about to embark on the journey with HHH? Thanks!

Zen your stormwater is making me nervous. We’re also sloping away from the street with a rear easement and I think our PA is $30k and $4k sewer. Fingers crossed…

Bit of a request for anyone who has finished their build - can I please ask if you wouldn’t mind taking a photo of the alfresco roof as we’re trying…

Awesome! Looking great!

Thanks Zen! I got a sample of Cotton Sheets and Tahira White today as I’m now doubting colour matching to Dulux Natural White. How did you go with Cotton…

Thanks so much for that! Thank goodness for this site and you all answering my many questions!! I really appreciate it.

Thanks kjane for that! Hmmm. Not sure we have enough room for all that. Did anyone bury their OSD? Also how long did it take Jemena to disconnect your…

I know it’s very dependent on site coverage etc but for those building in the Ryde Council area what OSD are you required to hold on site? Plus BASIX requirement?…

Hi Zen, we’re still tossing up colours but am off Basalt now as I don’t think it actually goes well enough with the brick after all. So now…

Thanks so much for that kjane! That’s really helpful!
BabyMichelle we’ve decided to go with appliances other than the Smeg included ones and so HHH have included an allowance in our…

Can anyone please share what the kitchen selections appointment involves, what to take, what discussions you have etc? And if you’re doing a poly kitchen what colours you can choose…

Sorry that website is easyrgb.com

Hi Zen,
Thanks for that. Shame there aren’t any addresses with Merbau.
Yes I definitely want a warm white. I visited Taubmans Trade Centre yesterday in Granville as I…

Oh I’ll have to ask him for some addresses for Merbau as that would be really helpful.
West Ryde Beaumont is also our local but I also like Castle Hill and…

I think I’m even more confused re colours than I was before the weekend so more thinking to be done. I’m seriously considering paying someone to tell me what…

Zen for some reason I can’t post photos here using the iPad so I’ve messaged you some pics of the samples we were given and Kwilla and Merbau again the…

Thanks so much for that Zen! I spoke to Sean about it yesterday and it sounds like all the changes we requested post the initial tender presentation have been sent…

Thanks so much for this! We're seriously considering using them too.

The other focus at the moment is ensuring that the floorplan is 100% - did anyone make many changes prior to the Plan Presentation meeting or where you 100% before…

Hi All, so we've officially joined the party and paid our tender acceptance fee! And now feeling the pressure of having to start making decisions and ensuring the plan…

Oh wow! That’s amazing that you chose everything from overseas! Thanks for the link, I’ll check it out now.

Haha kjane! I can’t wait to get to that stage! I have no idea re stain. Where do you go to check out garage doors? As I’ll try and make…

Thanks everyone for the advice and words of encouragement! I’d reply individually but my computer has decided to not cooperate so I’m on the iPad which won’t allow me to…

So we're now booked in for our Tender Presentation - any tips? Questions you wished you'd asked?

I am assuming we get a detailed "quote" based on our floorplans and…

Zen here are the photos:

Thanks Zen! Yes we drove past the Lane Cove property too and had thought it was the Espresso. It looks good though I did notice a couple of…

Thanks so much Zen! I’ll check out the Lane Cove house on the weekend. I quite like the look of white shutters with dark windows. We’ve seen a…
