Omg. I've never seen anything like that. I still don't know which toilets are being installed :/
Kings weren't interested in upgrading with us either. It actually annoys me now because…

I'm glad to hear that the mortar is gone. Here's hoping for hole-less mortar!
^Julia, I feel your pain
My partner is poor with updates.
He has been inside to see…

It's just another step closer to getting your new perfect home!

We are building the Hartwell with the Allora facade.
Here's hoping that your build is a smooth one

I'm pleased to hear that they will redo the bricks - hopefully a better solution than band-aiding the mortar. It's a shame that it won't be handed over until next…

The worst thing for us is that we nearly walked away from JG King after the contract debacle (it took them 5 months to start preparing our contract, and then…

Apparently our supervisor and electrician had different sets of plans, both of which were wrong.
Another problem was our island benchtop. It was installed six months ago, and it took them…

It'll be right - but admittedly I find the incompetence mind blowing

So many things - mainly due to the fact that the admin department are useless. They have no ******* idea how to do their jobs :/
Our poor supervisor has been…

We won't be in before Christmas.

They aren't conceding that they are liable for liquidated damages but they have definitely quickened their pace haha!

We are three weeks past contract date. Any liquidated damages owing to us will be paid by cheque after the final payment.

I am so disappointed for you both. It's a pity that the repointing can't be done until the new year, but I'm glad that Kings are taking it seriously.

We have definitely had one of the more productive weeks on our build:
- eaves and in fills installed
- bricks cleaned
- downpipes installed
- electricals mostly done
- plumbing mostly done
Here are our…

Horrible news for both of you.
I hope the redo goes a lot better

Progress is certainly continuing. Eaves were done yesterday and electrical is underway
It's not even an argument, it's just them being lazy and cheap (and annoying…

The bricks were finished earlier this week.
No eaves or render yet but I'm hoping soon. Some work inside though
We also mowed the lawn (which was…

I'm not building with Coral, but -
I have a 4m+ back bench in my kitchen. The join has been placed in line with our gas cooktop. It's hardly visible!

Your facade is incredible. Love the white and black with the bricks.

Yay! Hope it's finished soon and you can move in

The site is a mess but will be cleaned soon and it looks like our eaves installed this week!

Fingers crossed for both you and Julia!

The bricks are done (except for two brick window reveals).
I previously told our construction manager that I wanted to keep the leftover bricks. I didn't realise that there would be…

Ummmm.. for starters, the median house price in Werribee is higher than in Wyndham Vale. House prices in Werribee are also growing faster than Wyndham Vale.
Point Cook is considerably…

JG King are really pushing to handover in early December (with practical completion in late November). Unfortunately if we miss early December, handover won't happen until late January

I had a small stroke of luck!
The bricklayers weren't working on our build today. They were, however, working on a nearby JG King build (a much newer one than mine…

Bricklayers were at work again today and they locked me out!
I'm supposed to have the blinds company measure tomorrow not sure whether I should cancel or just hope the…

Well I was wrong. I had the day off, so naturally, I kept an eye on the build (stalked is probably more correct). It turns out that we had at…

I'm not sure whether its mould but its certainly very unsightly!
I would ask questions!

I suspect we only have one guy working on ours. Some of the builds here have 3-4 guys and they are finished in about a week.
