I assume you've checked out youtube ? Living Big in a Tiny Home has several big, rather than small trailer off-grid studies, and has lots of content for you to…

Looking absolutely stunning in the landscape. Well done mate.
Sometimes all it takes is paint to bring things to life.
We all know the journey is far longer.

Where is this model house?
If you can, knock on the door and ask them nicely about who built it etc. you’d be surprised who will help when your being friendly…

Like Hispeed. Also, keen to know how the exposed plumbing and reinforcing was fixed in the slab. In my case, i was like a hawk every day during the slab,…

Tender stage will confirm site costs and for the most part all things related to the structure and exterior finishes.
Interior selections have no impact to the tender process as…

That Looks like a buffalo runner.

My suggestion, get rawson to fix it but rendering it. No matter how they finish it, it looks bad.

Is it safe to have the form exposed from the slab like that?

The foam on the face of the slab is to be bricked. They simply burn or smash the…

Closer pic of foliage pls.

Just the wrong season to expect growth of buffalo turf.
Sir Walter is pretty tough, but it is a warm season grass like all buffalo.
You will always see dieback…

Good luck with the build. Looking forward to seeing it go up!

Plant out the front right zone to create some privacy and then think about an outdoor entertaining space with the likes ; pizza oven , firepit, bbq, outdoor table &…

Not one or crowds of people will give you 100% hindsight. In my case, time, budgeted for 9 month's rent and waited for 16 months for the build. Weather, trades,…

My first Sonos was a play5. They are the best single speaker in the family. Even better as a stereo pair. I’ve got just about everything they sell, so I’m…

Remove coral from your list. Ive never heard anything good about them on this forum.
Stick with the older crowd like Metricon, clarendon, etc that have been doing business for…

I would suggest Lilly Pilly. Looks like you need some privacy for that corner block.
Cascade or resilience australe species.
Both will establish some decent height and density in 2 years.…

That's new. On my build it was just 3 core unterminated with a pilot hole in the ceiling.

Just prune the damaged stalks down to main stalk leaving about 1-2cms space from the 'trunk'. Use a sharp flat blade kitchen knife if the tuber is thick, just to…

Further to those above.
Consider a few vents in the roof space and also use light colours on the external facade, roof sheeting.

Congratulations. No more shed camping.
Enjoy the luxury pad.

Looking close to finish now. Good luck with IOC, I’m sure you’ll be in by the weekend.

Winter grass. Hand weed to remove seed stock and next winter use pre emergents to break the cycle. Nothing you can do right now but minimise next years crop

In my opinion, they are two different nutrients. Get into it and spread the seamungus.

If you chop it back now, it will take a couple of weeks to fluff up again. Perfect time is now until the end of October.
Take it back harder…

The casing on the top of the wall sheets looks brilliant.
I hate it when I see these small but great ideas after my own build... Still a nice option over…

The build is flying along! Great progress that most would be pleased with.
Once the roof is on, the rest of the build will be less than 2 months by…

The lux package is good value. Skip the solar packages. Electrical can be reasonable with moderate add-ons to ground floor as these can be tricky due to flooring above.
I'd keep…

It’s inevitable to want things like 150 downlights, add gas point for bbq, add water point for fridge, floor to ceiling tiling, nicer fittings and fancier kitchens.... But everyone's different.…

Sloping or grading fall toward the house is a very very bad idea. Any material, should always fall away from the house.
Put a strip drain against the garden side (a…
