It depends on if your block was filled or cut, that will make a huge difference in slab requirements. I'm hoping to have our site costs and slab requirements ASAP

You should be able to sign all the documents and get your conveyencer to do everything so nothing is delayed by you being away

We've still got our tender appointment tomorrow with Carlisle even though they don't have soil tests done yet. They said they don't normally do it, but said because of the…

When we built in Cascades on Clyde they let the builders get their soil samples before settlement so that building could commence straight away as soon as it settled. I…
