Anyone know who Arden get to supply the splashbacks?

No worries
Yes, essentially that what it is - a storm water drainage system for property. If it is done the right way, it will protect your slab from water issues…

Hi Ezza,
It may differ from my area to your (as your one was a KDR), I can confirm mine is connected to the underground storm water discharge for our estate.

Hi Ezza,
I spoke to Arden and my landscaper, they confirmed like the gentleman above, that these are storm water pits. I need to grade my landscaping to feed into these…

Thanks for that - I will now go ahead and buy appropriate storm water pits for the pipes. Appreciate your help!

Hi,
Having recently completed a build, we are about to commence work on laying sandy loam fill and also Sir Walter buffalo turf in our back yard.
In considering drainage/grading our…

They use a guy called Koncrete Dean. I tired to use him but he would never show up to quote.

Oh wow. That's a totally different approach to how they done mine.
House is going good. Hoping to complete landscaping once my neighbours are all settled.
Had my 90 day warranty…

Hi Ezza,
Congrats on the progress. Seems to be coming up nicely.
Did you frame get delivered pre constructed?

Sorry to hear about the delay pEast - and the issues with the slab. Hope it all gets rectified asap.
If your frames won't be completed by Xmas, I would…

I highly recommend Allan.
He moved to Wollert form Berwick Waters, but I found it was worth working with him even after he moved. He is someone who is willing to…

My slab sits higher than all my neighbours, and from a selfish point of view I love it!
Pretty much means i don't have to to worry about flooding and…

Provided you have a good run with weather and your SS plans trades well, I have no doubt you can be in before Xmas. Mine took 6 1/2 months, but…

Hi Ezza,
To be honest, the last week is the first time I've been on the forum since moving in.
Home is going great. Had some issues, with the major ones being…

Hi Ezza,
I have round downpipes too - for the same reasons.
I hated them when I saw them, they looked like plastic pvc pipes.
But speaking to a plumber apparently they…

Yup that's what they have. But we had to upgrade for approx $1k to cater for the 5 bathrooms.

Colourbond looks great. Some houses are constructed to make it part of the feature.
But it has been interesting living with it. It gives the impression the rain is allot…

Signed up last year in July. Just before powerwall came in. Be mindful the price of the homes jumped up by the powerwall cost and also they deleted some promotions…

Thanks to everyone for compliments. We love the house and are happy we went with Arden - mainly as we feel like we have a customised designed house that other…

I didn't get the Tesla powerwall - wasn't part of the promo when I signed up and also did a bit of research and hope to get it, but maybe…

We didn't do the whole side of the house but are planning to do so with the same concreter. He didn't do porch as we are getting decking done their…

Yup we organised our driveway. And it's worth noting Arden don't let you do it until handover.
It cost us 4.5k for 57sqm.

Just the standard heights - 2.64 d/s and the minimum 2.44 upstairs. Good thing is all d/s doors are made higher to cater for the ceiling height.

Yup we started in the first week of Feb. Been a great build although it seems like the last two stages crawled.
