Monday! Got fridge and couch coming over the weekend, quotes for aircon as well. Need to get moving on the driveway and decking, we actually ended up with surplus on…

Handover today @ 2pm!

Looks fantastic, we're also going the ikea wardrobe route, yours look amazing!

Yes, keen to see some more photos! How has it been, getting settled?

Walkthrough finished yesterday and mostly just lots of touchups and finishing to be done. The timber screen is in but looks like they damaged it and the walls getting it…

How's it going? PCI okay?

I don't know too much about BAL ratings but a quick google indicates the location is rated one above BAL low, which attracts no structure or cost modification. BAL 12.5…

Yup, and mine was only 3m x 3m!

How did everyone go about deducting items charged on the contract that either didn't end up needing to be done, or an allowance for expenses that they may not have…

I don't remember the letterbox cost, I think around $100 to $200? The driveway was $5000 and the concrete for back patio and front porch was a grand or two,…

Tentative walkthrough date given... for next week! Trying to sort out exact date as partner and I are both shift workers and on opposite rosters at the moment, but can't…

Congratulations, hope its a fun day for you!

Had a bit of a peek this arvo and floor tiles are in, grouting not quite finished. But our splashback is done! Turned out really well, should look good with…

Your home is going to look stunning. Wonderful exterior and interior choices, can't wait to see more.

Unfortunately I think at this point in the process there isn't much you can do if they really want to be difficult. You could try contacting the builder and requesting…

Love the kitchen inspo pic, beautiful warm and wood tones. Looking great so far, nice relief when things are moving quickly and getting done after so long in admin hey.…

I chose Coral Homes, mainly because my block is quite small (375m2) and they had a floorplan that fit the block really well and still allowed for some room. It…

So close!! Hope everything goes smoothly

The lighter one is Alpine Stone from National Tiles

Yup and totally worth it I think for hopefully a reduction in cooling costs. Reading up on it our insulation options for the ceiling were thicker batts or several foil…

I was credited back $488 for both the oven and rangehood combined and I supplied the ones I wanted. Unless you're keen on a particular oven you have to have,…

We paid $381 for R3.0 ceiling insulation and $661 for R1.5 wall insulation

Getting there! Yeah hoping they will contrast nicely. Pretty happy with the shower too

Things are coming along, render is on and ready for painting which will be white. Dropped off our supplied lighting, and our oven and rangehood will get dropped off later…

We're locked out! Painting inside looks done, but wrong timber inserted into the screen and is primed to be painted but is supposed to be stained. Feature wall looks darker…

Nikhi ours is Alpine Charcoal from National Tiles. Just searched maximo black and I really like it! Comparing that to the Alpine photos the maximo looks like it will come…

Awesome!!!! Stain on the front door looks amazing, and love the internal wall colour! Also love the flow of the walls, countertops and splashback, all a bit different but go…

Yup going gangbusters! We are keeping the stained wood screen posts for the ensuite half-wall, and I'm hoping the lighter wood look cupboards don't end up looking out of place…

Ok a few updates, bricking is finished, external doors are on, walls, cornices and skirting boards are in, shelving in, tiling in wet areas mostly done, cabinetry in but no…

It looks fantastic, love the herringbone!
