I honestly couldnt be bothered, the leak was so bad it had to be replaced immediately. In hindsight I should have taken it into Reece plumbing myself but oh well.…

Oh how exciting!
Land prices are horrendous, out our way its an extra $100k to get something the same size as ours. We definitely wont be moving for a while....

What a trip down memory lane rereading this whole thread! Feeling quite nostalgic as we're expecting baby #2 next month.
Had M back in a few weeks back to chase up…

Looks fabulous

Good use of leftover bricks! We had a whole pallet left, ended up giving heaps away and we still have plenty.

In some areas toilets must be flushed by recycled water, ie the purple pipes/tap

Looks fab.

Looks great!

In our area, eaves are compulsory for the front but not the rest, and it looks ridiculous. I'm so glad we did it the whole way around.

Waterproofing for wet areas is standard, you'll be given th certificate at handover.
I can definitely recommend eaves all around, sarking and double glazing. They all improve the insulation qualities of…

I like Hamptons but we went scandi with ours. We figure simple whites and timbers are unlikely to date, and you can accessorise however you like.

Shower has been finished and looks so much better. Here's hoping it's easier to keep clean.
We've had a serious mouse problem which culminated in one in our pot drawer and…

We have the
dripping noise above our master bedroom, which is the hot water system. Until your post I hadn't thought much about it but we do get a random…

The grout is cracking and has worn thin in places, you can see the terracotta tile colour around the edges.
My only disappointment is that we have a tile that sits…

Ensuite shower gets stripped out tomorrow. The whole thing is going to be redone with epoxy grout.

Busy weekend of painting. All our nail pops were patched Saturday and a couple of walls repainted. Our upstairs ceilings were all painted today, and the downstairs ones will be…

Online, I'd have to see if I could find where

He's far more reasonable than others I've dealt with.

Had M back through today to sort our ongoing issues and I’m pleased that he suggested fixing addition issues, including stuff that got knocked back at service.
The disconnected down pipe…

And as a nice little insult, we have mice in our pot drawer in the kitchen. They havent sealed between the plaster and the benchtop behind the stove, leaving a…

So much builders rubble. I swear they truck in extra for good measure (they certainly topped our backyard with it)...

It's taken 16 months but I finally have the remotes and wall panel for our garage door
Since January 6 I'd sent three emails and made a number of calls,…

We were two months from inspection to handover, and it took them until the final couple of weeks to actually get stuff done.
Not sure whats going on with them lately…

Ours is still in the box at the bottom of the pantry....

Not sure that I do, it's the back of the garage

An interesting development, one of our pipes has subsided and disconnected from the downpipe. Is this something M will fix under warranty?

Can you get one of those moisture absorbing buckets? That might help reduce the damp a little.

That's not looking good.

We're a bit serious about our wine seems to be a relatively constant temperature in there so it's the perfect spot. Our garage is currently our dumping ground, that's…

We've been finishing off a few of the last things recently. I finally have ceiling fans in the bedrooms for summer.
I also picked up some bargain Batten fix lights for…
