We've only met him twice (once for the initial SS meeting and the other just before lockup) so I haven't had a real chance to really speak to him. I'm…

BS12 - not sure I've seen enough of my SS yet to determine whether he'll be as good as yours! He seems ok so far?

- omg. Ray i think…

I think my thread is overdue for an update!! =)
We reached lockup early last week and popped over to peek through the window - we can see the kitchen cabinets…

That looks amazing!!!!

What is a pre-fab frame? If this was the case, knowing it would have been good rather than running with their generic response! Not quite sure what good it was…

It's with a large builder - no reason was actually given except 'at this stage of construction, no changes are allowed' (request was made after slab down, before bricking started)…

Hi All,
I am currently building our first home SOR and it is currently at lock up stage. The build is currently on a small block, with a single entry…

Hey!! congrats to you too!! fingers crossed for both of us!
Not sure if you remember, but the last time we chatted, I was in the midst of trying to…

Hi Fullmoon - sorry for the long absence, I went on holiday, got a new job, etc etc so haven't had a real chance to jump back on here! How…

I forgot to add that it seemed to be the case with builds from previous stages on our estate - we joked about it but whenever we saw one finishing…

I gotta agree with sinurt cos we're the last one on the street and the only CH!

I just read through your thread - now I get why you totally understand what i mean about seeing other CH houses progress ahead!! I'm crossing my fingers that I…

Hi Fullmoon - looks like something's started on my block. How is yours going?

Finally an update!!
Looks like work has started on the block - apparently CH had to allocate another build team due to the last one not finishing up which set…

Hi Fullmoon,
I've had very similar experience to you except no-one was ever on site when i'd been told they would be. Last update was that they would start mid last…

Hi Fullmoon,
How is your build coming along? I am still waiting for the brickies to start!!!

That is a great idea BS12!! I have a feeling i'm going to be charged to make that change now though?

Wow Fullmoon - congrats on the bricks arriving!! =D (i feel like every single development in the process deserves a congratulations at this stage! lol)
Is that something to do with…

Hi Fullmoon,
I did the same thing and pretty much got the same response. I went to the block yesterday during my lunch break and there was movement!! The window frames…

Hi Modernoutback!
Welcome aboard the CH Train! =) I think compared to a lot of other threads i've read about other builders, CH is really not too bad - just…

Hope everyone had a great Christmas/New Year!! =)
Just a quick update - there has been no progress really on our block which is not surprising with the holidays and all.…

Hope you get well soon! Perfect reason to relax with your feet up in front of the air con

We went by tonight and the site looks cleaned up but nothing else - it sounds like you may have caught up to me! I don't expect to see anything…

The letter did say that the delays are dependent on which area you're in so there is a chance that it won't affect you as much.. *fingers crossed*

Well - just received a letter from CH to advise of the bricklaying shortage...

That's the email we received after slabdown so I think the works you see in my last photo will be some of that work. I have no idea what the…

Congrats!!! Looks like we're on a very similar timeline now

Thanks for confirming that! I got there and thought WTF?! lol

Went to check out our block on the weekend and saw some action - is this drainage/soakwell type work??
The slab's kinda hidden away behind the mount of sand/dirt -…

wow it all looks amazing!!! I've heard only good things about the SS's from CH which is a great thing!
I've driven past your place each time my hubby and…
