Good luck with…

Most properties…

Hey mate,
Unless you want a secondary dwelling which is stipulated to be a ancillary dwelling to the primary house, captured on the same title and used by extended family, you…

I like it. Looking forward to seeing the exterior paint and balustrade in.

Is this a brand new home?
If so, I'd be putting that back on your builder stat!

After 12 months of talking about it we are finally getting the front fence done.
I'm using White rhino PVC in Brisbane, installed by showcase landscapes.
I'll post more images as…

Yay. Looking forward to pics

Tiling is the exciting bit!

I built with Clarendon who is the parent company for Domaine. They were great and I loved building with them, but even they missed stuff at every stage which was…

I know a friend who built with them in Wynnum. Had nothing to say but great things. Said that they were super quick.
I got them to price up a build…

We had something similar where the property connection for the old house (that got demoed) was under a 6x6 shed that was on the block when we bought the house.…

In queensland we have two triggers for revetment walls.
1. A town planning trigger (only in some councils) - where structures are required to submit plans show structural impact on the…

You'll probably want the ducted upgraded, or run prewire and install a decent unit after handover. The standard unit is not great in terms of efficiency and noise.
We upgraded…

You got grubs mate.
Hit your lawn with a bag of Scott's - lawn builder, grub and insect (red bag) from Bunnings.
It's got Bifenthrin as the active ingredient which will knock…

Hey mate,

If the developer provides a compaction certificate (preferably level 1) that means that regulated/clean fill has been imported that has been monitored by an RPEQ engineer as it has been…

Just check if it's a provisional sum. At 25k it'll likely be a worst case scenario if it's provisional.
If it's fixed, its a different story

Half the time only 10k or so is fixed and the remainder is provisional. My site costs were about 25-26k and I got back over 10k because there were no…

Depends
If you mean does the m2 of my access handle contribute in terms of something like site cover (50% of the total m2) than yes.
