Hi Frank:
For me the whole thing costed less than $50, but that’s because I did the hard stand myself and it was only 3m x 0.4m. It really…

I see, they probably think the job is too small hence not responding. Unfortunately I don’t have a recommendation but pretty sure you can find a handyman to do it…

How big/deep is the nature strip? Mine is very small so I did it myself. Otherwise find a concreter or handyman, nothing special about the hard stand, PTV should provide…

I started the process when I first engaged Metricon and confirmed they required the relocation. But to be honest the whole process didn’t take long, 2-3 months should definitely be…

Oh and just to clarify, I didn’t have to do anything to the existing bus stop, PTV just put a cover on the existing pole to say this stop is…

I’m building with Metricon, but I spoke with Carter Grange and Porter Davis as well, all of them are willing to build if you can get the bus stop relocated.
Because…

I had the same issue with a bus stop zone in front of my knockdown rebuild (Bayside council). I went through the whole process myself instead of going through the…

Congrats on the site start, really like your floor plan change. I'm building the Hampshire as well, just waiting for my building permit so hopefully not too long to go.
Where…

Thanks Stanus. A grand entrance door definitely gives that wow first impression, but I just think with the price you can probably get something even better. I got my eyes…

Yeah I knew it was going to be a lot, but not this much.
I still want a similar double door, might approach the supplier directly and ask for a price.

Hi Stanus:
If you don't mind me asking, how much was your Hume Matisse Double Front Door and door handles?
I got quoted $9800 for the double front…

Thanks Stanus, I think it's a worthy investment too.
Hope your build coped well in today's rain.

Perfect timing for the roof.
Do you minding sharing the cost of terracotta roof upgrade? I'm going for my studio M selection next month and couldn't find any info on roof…

Looking good, it will be lockup in no time.
Btw, awesome shot, make your frame look like gold plated!

Thanks Stanus, timber window and stacker definitely look better, I think I will leave them for my front elevation and rear access.
That's not bad for the panel lining so might…

Agree, it will be a very solid floor and great for sound insulation.
Another question on your windows and stacker door, I noticed you changed most of them to timber, is…

wow, your build is going really well.
I thought about the hebel power floor as well but was under the impression that it's going to further add to the overall building…

Finally some progress since deposit been paid.
Soil test, survey all completed and I have received site Drawing and preliminary floor plan. They’ve done a good job and only one upgrade…

Thanks dulie, your house is an inspiration for me too, especially the WIR fit out and sneaker wall, wife wants something similar for her handbag collection now...

Thanks Shokel1975. Renman has indeed set the bar very high

Thanks Stanus, I'm also stalking your post as well. I'd love to build a Doulton if that was feasible.
Yeah that's Bayside council for you, but the good thing is…

Yes I did, and I considered many other designs, but it always comes back to our council's design overlay, basically the first floor side walls need to have a setback…

Hi Everyone:

Finally paid deposit to Metricon to build the Hampshire 46 (it's a Bayside special edition designed to cater the stringent council design requirements).
I want to begin by…
