Hi All,
We've just bought a property that has an existing kitchen/laundry extension in Newcastle. We're looking to knock out that extension and build a larger extension that replaces those wet…

IMO, see what they say when you ask them what they will offer for doing this to you. Redesigning the bedrooms doesn't sound ideal, the eaves solution may be better.…

Cheers, don't know how I didn't come across that cement australia page when I searched.

Hi
I'm getting an outdoor kitchen bricked up, wanting to render it. I've been told by a renderer that I need to wait 30 days before I get the rendering done.…

Thanks, I'm going to go with an exposed aggregate slab instead of timber deck but will likely be a timber kitchen.

Hi All,
Just canvasing the forums for recommendations on builders that can assist with an outdoor kitchen and seating area.
Looking to make a curved seating arrangement around a fire pit, have…

Hi,
Yes it turns out it can't be done without a way to get HDMI to RG6. A converter looks to cost about $400 from jay car and even then I…

That sounds like exactly what I want to do. I've got the av signal to all rooms from the hub, sounds like if the installer can hook up the foxtel…

I had the Clipsal Starserve for years in last house. I did all the cable runs and wall plates and had a tech fit off in the hub. The system…

Hi,
Sorry to bring up an old thread. We have a star serve box in our garage and looking at getting foxtel. Was wondering, are we able to run an…

Bit of feedback for those interested. We've been in our place for 4 months now, just had the warranty inspection. He was pretty good, we had some major stuff (cracks…

I'd read up on the derby before committing if I were you.
You will read how it struggles on a hot day and how unreliable they are, requiring a large amount…

Ours is a 1.2m wide front door. I think it's because of the house design as we have a wide hallway as well. Or maybe because we got the celebrations…

heat will always leave the house through the sides, check the wall temp and glass temp. tiles and slab will be generally more stable in temp than walls because…

If you talk to carpet layers they usually install carpet with the skirting already there. They tuck it up next to the skirting boards.

Nah Miss Windsor it wasn't us, it's scotty78 being pinged for the > 150 day clause.

Didn't take us that long to get building after council. Keep bugging them, squeeky wheel gets the oil and all that.

My bad, I just spoke to the better half and we vented the bathroom fans to roof space, our kitchen rangehood is ducted outside.
This is why I married her. Ours…

Good to meet you too. We went past today to see our roof. Yours is looking really good

Ours is vented to our roof space, I think that's standard. If you have a whirly bird thing on your roof it's meant to ventilate that space.

Nah you'll be fine. A bracket isn't a big deal to fit later

Ours was really quick, less than a week, that was back in Feb.

We read about this height issue on here and when we had our contract plans appointment made sure it was right on the plans. Their explanation is that some people…

We had no issues. We applied end jan and got the payment end feb.
We dealt with Damien and had Cindy cc'd in the whole time

As we understand it, you can make changes on your plans up until the time you sign the contract and sign off on the plans.
They just advise against it…

I have heard nothing but bad things about Derby. I've heard of people getting multiple services and repairs done during the warranty period and then turfing it once they were…

Coloured concrete would be the way to go. Painted driveways will wear and peel. Don't think there would be a huge cost difference if you have a fairly standard colour

Ours got in contact with us more then 10 days before it's due to be poured (25th march).
Funny fact, he's our landlord's son too...
Newcastle is too small

Yeah you can do that, just need quotes for the bank to include and I think maybe receipts afterwards. Also they would probably want their valuer to do some 'analysis'…
