Hi Lizzy,
Yeah, pretty simple....just took the hinges off and attached the door to the bin. You have to get the correct bin that attaches to the door and correct…
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
Thanks Lizzy. Considering that Clarendon wanted nearly $3K just for the bottom bit (not behind the rangehood), it's quite cheap....that's why I mentioned the prices. The bin was also around…

AAW means Aluminum Awning Window....meaning it opens outside. The X wouldn't mean that.

Lizzy,
10mm means nothing when quoting and yes, they will do a final measurement before doing your window coverings.
Denot,
We waited until everything was complete to do our own. Even one…

Be careful with the window measurements guys. What you are saying is correct but do not use it for your fly screens or blinds. There is a list that Clarendon…

And I thought it was me. Sounded lost on the phone...lol.
Anyway, good luck to him.
Just a quick question for those who got a quote with him, what did it work…

Hey Rose.

Hello all,
Just popped in to say hi.
Still trying to settle in but it's very slow. Trying to find tradies who won't rip you off blind and it's becoming a nightmare.…

Hello all,
Just dropped in to say hi and to tell you that I haven't forgotten you.

Guess what these are guys?
Our KEYSSSSSS. ...
Handover complete.
SS was really good and said any issues just to let him know.
We received a gift from them as…

No Sydney-build, CDC or should I say Local Group sent it in the mail. I think Clarendon organise this as it has all the dates of the CDC inspections…
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
Sorry that you misunderstood me light487. These are all the things we need to do but not necessarily needed for Occupancy Certificate.
Retaining walls and driveway are definitely required.…

We received our Interim Ocuppancy Certificate in the mail yesterday. There is a list there which I don't understand and will need to check with SS and possibly the CDC…

Thanks guys. I will definitely be hanging around....I'm addicted to this damn forum, lol.
Honestly, I'm hardly waiting to see everyone's builds especially the Taj Mahal rose....
Just because…

Correct.....the full 28 weeks as per contract on single storey build time even though we were told 16-22 weeks verbally before we signed.
In saying that, spoke to the Corinthian truck…

WOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Just got a call from the SS.
KEYS TOMORROW @ 12PM. .........YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
Considering how much you get slugged for the upgrade, that is what you would expect....lol
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
You are correct Lizzy. In saying that, 300 mm is a big edge....lol. My understanding of and edge is something that is 10 - 20mm.
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
Well, we have an 300 mm (both top and waterfall ends) overhang on those cupboards and that's all 40mm so how can it be only the edges only?
justwondering1 posted:Who's building with Clarendon??
There is no such thing as 40mm stone top. It's 2x 20mm tops stuck together.
We have a 40mm stone bench with 40mm waterfall edges and they're mitred.
See below.....

Looking good Heidi. What colour walls do you have? Looks similar to ours. We have winter ice.
