Adrian,
What did Dux have to say? Mine did exactly the same as yours! We moved in in 2007, then the first leak was 1 yr after that (just…

Gday,
If anyone has had a good experience with an A/C installer based in the western suburbs of Melb that you would recommend, could you please share?? I'm in Point…

We've got one of those large pivot doors, never had any problems with it since we moved in in August last year.

Go to http://www.land.vic.gov.auand click on the "Interactive Map".
In the "Build Map" option, tick the Lot Numbers checkbox and then do a "Search" on the street you're after. Zoom in…

Did anyone go to the seminar? Was it worthwhile?

I'm rather curious...
In the Empire Turf website, the only VIC grower is Lilydale Instant Lawn...but when you go into their website, they do not mention anything about Empire…

If you are in Victoria, I would suggest you ring BACV at 1300 557 559 for advice.

This morning my wife rang M3tricon head office and asked to speak to our customer service rep whom the receptionist would not put us through to as we are in…

Good to hear that you're up and running again, ricci!

Ours is in Burma Buff colour, I think out of the Bristol colour range.

2 1/2 weeks for us from final inspection till handover.

sd,
The time it took you from signing up to actually signing the contract (2 months!!) is very very impressive indeed!!
We're building with M* in Point Cook as well,…

Sorry, Ray...but shouldn't those drawings be included in the New Home Contract that you signed?

Aaaah, sounds like they are starting to show their true self, Ray... Have you signed the final contract?

I was quoted $270. But I think this is quite simple to do, and I'm planning to do it myself.
What you need to know is where the…

Doesn't suit those who need mega Gigs of download every month, but certainly works for me just fine!

vpande,
Our opinion of M is not much difference from pacharly's. PM me if you're interested in details.

I believe all that is left to do, is finish the showers, do the tiling, rendering of the front post (which has been half started) and i guess touch ups.…

A big NO from me. Our builder totally lacks in customer service, IMO. I'm now starting to regret our decision to go with them.

Is there any dimmable CFL that would work with 'traditional' dimmers?
Would there be any problem if a CFL is installed to a circuit with dimmers and it is 'accidentally' dimmed…

Anyone has any comments on the Technika range?

Congrats on the new house, Amber!
I love the colour of the feature wall behind the TV and the pink in the girl's bedroom. Would you mind sharing what colours…

Our friends were quoted $1,300 for one...and I think theirs is only 1/2 the width of what we're going to need !! Sounds too pricey for me...

Thanks for the info, dazcla! Do you know if the sale is still on this weekend?

Hi bmp,
As someone who is also renting and paying mortgage on 1 income at the same time, I do sympathise with you.
What is the reason for the builder delaying the…

Hi Sallyho,
I believe what you are referring to is what's called the 're-establishment survey'. We were told to have this done on our block as well - although to…

Please excuse the silly questions - but don't wall tiles always laid starting from centre to the sides, so you end up with a symmetrical wall??
Is there an actual written…

I'm in the south west area.

Hi aaurora,
Did you end up building it yourself or done by someone else?
We need a horizontal timber slat fence sized roughly 3.6 m wide x 1.8 m high. …

Thanks royalblue for the detailed info! Very informative, indeed!
