Hi Polack.
Just wondering if the flooding issue is anything I can help with, or is it already in hand?
I hope it has not caused too much inconvenience or…

MissEm,
I wouldn't hold out too much hope for the clean provided by DAH though I hope Jemima is right about your Site Clean. I'm afraid the cleaners that did our…

Beachside,
Love your choice of bricks, roof and paint colours for your home. Same as you we based ours on the Archipelago.

Yes we used the same colours as the display. Absolutely love the bifolds and no, the bifolds don't have flyscreens.

Hey Chris,
Got the landscaping rebate from Satterley the other day. So it looks like it's all good to do the landscaping yourself.

AubinGroveFan,
I'm glad you're getting the basin you want. The delay is the trade off.
I guess they were hoping you'd be put off by the delay, but as soon as you…

Chris,
Our block finished up pretty level by the time the house was finished. We a had about 1/2 a truck load to remove from the front. We just gave the…

MissEm,
What Jemima has written is the ideal situation, in our case it didn't quite happen that way.
We received two updates from our CLO during the construction period. Once telling us…

Key things left outside:
Copper Screens on back limestone wall

Have you worked out what you're doing with your landscaping?
I've sent off the paperwork to claim the landscape rebate from Satterley. As you know I did most of the work…

AubinGroveFan,
You can ask for the original basin to be installed and they have to wear the cost of changing the cabinets. What they probably hope is that you can't be…

Well the front's nearly finished. 6 pavers short!! Bugger!
Apart from laying the last of the pavers, all I need to do now is build a screen to hide the bins.
I'll…

Yes they were accepted. I'm doing some myself (planting, steel edging) and coordinating others to do the other bits.
The lawn is Sir Walter and it has come up all right,…

MissEm,
It was quite reasonable. The edging is from Fremantle Stone, their limestone collection.

Couple of photo's.
Pool with the edging done. It'll be cleaned by the pool company in a couple of weeks time once they install the pump and heating.
