Tidied up the front, side gates are done but not in this pic. All appliances are now installed and we are semi moved in. Will be 100% moved in from…

Nope, I put Downlights above the bench. Not a fan of pendants and I wanted a good strong amount of light projected into the bench as my wife cooks a…

Only a few very minor issues, bit of missed silicone, couple of minor paint touch ups, but overall impressively smooth sailing. The thing that has impressed me most is the…

Hand over is done, ******* temp letterbox in place and now the real work begins. Driveway, landscaping, flooring, window coverings - most of this is happening over the next 1-2…

More photos once my floors are in this week but I gotta say I'm very very very happy with these DL7's....

Get my keys today, I'm excited but there's still a few things unfinished. Luckily I am not planning to move for a week or so.
Today will be the first…

Well they get installed this Saturday so I will post up the results shortly after that. Might wait until my floor boards are in before photos though, so give me…

Ah, a long way away from me then. I just noticed that the fencing is from the same company, I guess they must do pretty much all of Clarendon's jobs…

Which area you building in?

Garage door is on, facade isn't quite done yet though.

Just ordered my Wattsaver stuff for inside and outside... Can't bloody wait

I think mine is the same, my site supervisor said he is not a fan of the look also but this is the specification they have to build to. Function…

Starting to get excited but at the same time I know there's a heap of work I'll need to do post-handover from Clarendon before I can move in.
A few pics

Didn't your customer service rep provide you with a copy of the construction process flow chart?
After my slab was poured they let it settle for a good month, it had…

Stopped by to see Stephen at Wattsaver a few days ago. I originally had my heart set on Brightgreen D900's but I am really glad I checked out the Wattsaver…

Yeah I've got a fridge point too. It's just a tap. Fridge does the filtering and ice making

Man my house is coming along well, we are almost a month ahead of schedule at the moment. No issues with quality at all so far but the gyprock will…

Well, Bricks & Roof are all done... just got the inside to complete now. Getting excited, progress seems like it's happening at a somewhat rapid pace. Very happy with the…

Yep don't sweat it. Same thing here, FHOG was paid directly back into my savings account.

I changed mine from standard Brivis to Toshiba hybrid inverter

That sucks, but the faults that were identified with paint, plaster, trim and so forth are so obvious that you don't really need an independent inspector to identify them.
Mistakes…

They're pretty forgiving with the Smart Build thing. My house is single storey, but I increased ceiling height to 2600 and also changed the plan from this:

to this:
and it did…

I'm still looking around myself, I really like the benefits of the security shutters but I don't want to ruin the front of my house.
Seeing as I only have 3…

I've been very happy with Clarendon so far. We're only at roof tiles stage, so a long way to go, but everything so far has been excellent. When we ran…

That was certainly very helpful, thank you for putting in the time to reply!

Yeah when Clarendon asked me to complete a landscape plan I just marked out roughly where I intended to put grass and gardens with coloured pencils and this was accepted.…

My place is just at slab only which is actually ideal for the break. I didn't really want wood and materials sitting around over Christmas.
So far very happy, the…

Hi All,
I'm currently building a new house and I've been doing some shopping for floor boards. We've settled on the Bamboo variety and I've got a couple of samples here…

It doesn't hurt to get a quote on the items you're thinking about. Some things were cheap enough that we just went ahead and got Clarendon/their sub-contractors to do it.…

Right, we originally had our Dalkeith 29 plans re-drawn like so:

and we then flipped it around to better suit our block, with a nice offset on one side to allow…
