Wow. Long time no check in. Glad it's getting close...

Omg that looks amazing! What a fantastic job.

Could you add another gate next to the current double gate?

Don't worry about the furniture. It'll still be there when you move in.

Yay sounds like a very fruitful trip to spotlight!

Our neighbours had brickies on site this morning. I only saw two... No idea who they look like! But I waved to them as the guys who were there…

That's terrible that the carpenters haven't been paid. Their contract manager would still be head office...

Great progress (don't want to jinx you though!)
Bricks are looking fabulous.
Can I ask how much extra the brick infills cost above the garage? (Yeah I'm jealous )

Looking great and sounds like a good schedule.
I like your floor choice too. My pick of the 3 in your pic.
With curtains will depend on the look you…

Which floor board is what?

Great that things are getting moving now.

Mortar does become whiter...
Looks great so far! I found our brickies fantastic and it sounds like yours are really looking after your home.

my hubby reminded me about the time we had the wrong kitchen sink installed... with the wrong ceasarstone... and Sekisui having to replace it and the caesarstone as the 'refund'…

blessed to have met a couple of the lovely homeone forum members today at a party to celebrate the deck being installed! ehhc and shazaw -- great to meet…

I say "Go for it." A cordless circular saw would be perfect!
I remember when we asked to move our manhole (originally from the garage to the WIR)…

Looking great! Lots of progress!
Make sure you take lots of photos and reference measurements for you pipes if you plan on putting things on walls.

Could you do your own noggins? Usually they just use scrap pieces of timber from the site and at them in anyway!

The inside of our front door is the same colour as the internal trim and internal doors.

Definitely argue re the door. Whilst they can change suppliers they need to advise. Also you should be getting similar to the display.
What have they said re the aluminium…

Hey Epaul
Any updates? Photos?

Just looking back at your SketchUp design. I'm very jealous of your patience in learning SketchUp and now your skills in it! Looks fabulous!

Yeah their raked ceiling looks great but it's hard to justify the dollars
