Load bearing wall removal / Owner Builder options
Correct, there are no drawings available. That’s one of the steps I need to do. I’ve reached out to some structural engineers and a builder to get an idea of…
Load bearing wall removal / Owner Builder options
Hey guys, looking at doing some renos to our new place.
It looks like a lot of it revolves around removing load bearing walls. I thought I'd jump on here…
Allura Estate
Yer, when it first went up for tender it had the same dates. Nothing lined up with what stockland was actually saying....
Allura Estate
terrible. Does anyone have a contact email for Stockland? I've tried a couple of weeks ago with no reply..
Allura Estate
It looks like its close. I've run down it a few times, its sped up a little bit haha. They've also put down the first layer of bitumen for the…

They are pretty solidly clearing the school land in allura, I think we've got a good chance at this being ours.
Allura Estate
Proposed budget is out. I think the only thing that relates to us is the continued work on Manview reserve.

Last winter stockland stated that about the grass, hence the delay. Correct me if I'm wrong but mid year this year is winter. Unless they lay it now to allow…
Allura Estate
Nevermind, looks like dates have changed. ETA Sept '17, seems reasonable.
Allura Estate
is this what's already being constructed, or has something changed? Seems like it'll be finished much sooner... ?
Allura Estate
I'm actually loving the style of the building, especially with native grassy landscaping. Also think the playground looks great!
Now- hopefully the ovals, and BOTH ovals are complete.. it looks…
Allura Estate
Shopping centre wont be done in 2016. To give you an idea, the ovals used to have signs saying "coming in 2013". These where then updated each year..
Allura Estate
I think it is for eclipse. If anyone has the time to dechipher here's the details. They've also dug out the driveway / car park as per council plans
Allura Estate
Way to big and new to be for the builders (it was my first though too) also the position doesn't make sense if it was temp. But it is propped…
Allura Estate
ugh, and probably will be delayed again. It's so disappointing that they can make so many promises that they don't need to keep. It's pretty much an election campaign.
Allura Estate
I haven't bothered. There's soooooo many exceptions its ridiculous. It's all a bit of a sham. I would've much proffered if the builder used a solution that didn't need annual…
Allura Estate
So.. they've turned on the traffic lights at the intersection of Forsyth & Elmhurst - the only reason I can think of is to annoy everyone
Allura Estate
Any updates from anyone? Looks like work on the ovals has started again - earth turning in prep for grass? Still no bins on the path though (inside their holders)…
Allura Estate
Ovals are looking good , shame that there's no lights though! Would be good for night time walks... Also don't understand why they didn't do the footy oval lights for…
Allura Estate
Yep, some nice cafes would be awesome! Loving the progress on the ovals. Sucks that they'll still take ~a year (maybe something will open in phases?) but still looking promising!
Allura Estate
There's no nice dining "hub" in the the larger area around us. I mean including hoppers etc. The closest thing would be urban diner.. It'd be nice if we could…
Allura Estate
Actual water usage during construction is worth peanuts. It's the other charges that add up.
Allura Estate
Yep it's a petrol station.
Also noticed that they've put fence posts around the East oval (which is as per plans - one oval has a fence).
And I managed…
Allura Estate
Nar different corner. They're already constructing the petrol station. This sign is on allura land just near the main entrance.
Allura Estate
I saw that too. Behind the displays. Kind of the corner for marquands and leakes. Looks like they've started so,etching on the ovals too!
