Hey!
I haven't actually got around to doing the side and rear landscaping yet, so it is still just sand. I really need to just map out what I want to…

Yeah, it's not cheap either. I forget the price to move it, but to sink it in a box it was $660.
The developer set all of that out. The capped…

Congrats on moving in!
Those darn water meters. I ran over mine too. Ended up paying water corp a lot of money to sink it into the ground and put it…

No worries
Yeah, I got connected before I moved in.
Basically once you choose an ISP and sign up with them they will arrange with NBN Co.…

I ordered my bins once I had the keys. You just need to call the council, maybe check their website.
I think they deliver new bins on Tuesday mornings. You get…

Cheers! I really like it

A quick note with the insurance. Generally your bank won't release the final payment unless you show them you have insurance (certificate of currency). I took out my insurance on…

I thought it was a bit expensive but I couldn't be bothered dealing with it and looking for other quotes. I think it was $400 for the gate and $100…

Hey,
I hit them up separately just before they did my fence install to get a quote for a side gate. It ended up being $660 and I went with it.…

Looking good! Bricks was the most exciting time to me

There are quite a few things they deliver before they start the bricks. I believe they were; Bricks, Window Frames, Sliding Door Frames, Front Door Frame, Skip Bin, Toilet, Storage…

Exciting times! I went every day when my bricks started.
With mine the bricks started exactly 4 weeks after the slab went down, which was about 2 weeks after they were…

Thanks
Yeah. I am doing sanding and filling today while the lights are being installed.

Yeah, I am using an oil based sealer. Solver Wall Sealer. It seems to vary from wall to wall. Some walls it goes on easily and others just soak it…

I think next time I will just hire a painter.
3 full days with 3 people working on it so far and we are still sealing the walls. They were filthy…

Got keys today! Painting kicks off tomorrow!

Thanks everyone!
Keys tomorrow morning! Straight into the painting on Tuesday. Spent some time at Solver on Saturday but still don't have a colour. Picked up the sealer and the paint…

Congrats! You should have your slab in the next day or two.
My house pretty much faces your street and i will be moved in in a few weeks so I…

Another super late update!
The house was finished off over the weekend and today was PCI! It went really well with only minor issues being found by both myself and the…

Here are a few more recent photos of the house. Main floor tiling was finished last week.
Only outstanding items now are: Carpets, Paving, Garage Door, Final Render/Gable Painting, Cleaning.
Looking good…

It feels like forever at the time and then when you look back it's like "that was fast". Less than 3 weeks to go until PCI.
Last week all of the…

That's interesting. Which bank are you with?
I am through Bankwest and they had no issues with the digital signatures I used to sign my Celebrations contracts.

A fair bit has happened over the last two weeks.
All of the internal painting was done (ceilings, cornices, doors, door frames) as well as external (eaves, garage ceiling, alfresco). The…

Just noticed on the estate website that it says your stage is titled now. Congratulations!

Another belated update!
Things were a bit quiet the last couple of weeks.
Two weeks ago the ceilings and cornices went in and the front drainpipes were attached.


We finally reached lock up…

The promised update!
I went by yesterday (Saturday) hoping the white set on the walls was finished and was surprised to find that not only was it finished, but the windows…

Looking really good! I will be following along keenly.
I hope your titles aren't too far away.

I have been slack on here lately and haven't updated. I will try to get some new photos up tomorrow.
The inspection picked up a couple of structural items that I…

Gutters and drain pipes installed.
Roof cover is due to begin next Thursday and I have an inspector going through on Tuesday.

I thought about extending the mirrors but got talked out of it. I have seen examples of it the way I have it now and it still looks okay. Taller…
