Unless it's in the glass like ours is.

We had things seen to before our 90 days was up. Aircon (twice), power points, front door lock and our hot water service.
We've also got some rubber stuff on our…

Usually if your neighbour has a building permit (rather than occupancy) then you'd require obscured windows. Depends on the council though.

Don't be worried; Its a matter of taking the face plate off, unscrewing the old fitting, screwing in the new one and clipping the new face plate on. Given the…

What was the reason for changing your locks?

We managed to bust our garage door a mere 3 weeks after we moved in, so I feel your pain.

It was pretty quick. They don't replace the exhausts as they're different shapes. Only one power point resulted in some paint being removed, just added it to the defect list.

We only did the bedroom and lounge so we were ok to spend a bit more.

Into Blinds.

Thank you. They have a nice linen like texture to them.

Yes, through Into Blinds. I was going to diy but those windows are huge.

Good luck! It's hard work but totally worth it.

Curtains at last.

Love where you live.

Oh I mean there's no permit for next door yet. Still a vacant block, so we could have had that window changed.

Our council says you only have to obscure if the building permit for the adjacent block is already approved. None for our neighbour as yet but I couldn't be bothered…

Weird though that the data point in the lounge is the standard/included one, and we added the study one as an extra. It works fine the way it is, but…

Husband did a rough layout of pavers last night. They need to be levelled and aligned, then we will fill around them with river stones.

They seem to default to the strictest option.
Our supervisor said we should have asked for film rather than obscured glass so we could remove it later

M had all our upstairs windows as obscured (except the front); I pulled up the legislation and got the ones overlooking our own backyard removed. The two side ones are…

We live next door in Belmond and back on to Pavilion, so I'm watching with interest.
You should only be BAL if you are around the outsides usually; we're BAL as…

It looks like this:
But looking at the one in the study it seems it should have been FDA. Given the lounge room one was the included data point and the…

The amount of concrete, rubble and other junk dumped on vacant blocks around our estate is ridiculous. Though one concreter got caught the other day on film and had to…

Agree; we specifically wanted two points.

Me too. Most of the issues are paint related so shouldnt be too hard; I refuse to scrub paint splatter off the floor.
Theyre trying to tell me that the data…

Well our service period has ended and M contacted us to book in...in April! Unfortunately that's when I'm due so they've scrambled to book us in sooner Ie March. Plus…

We did! My husband did all the heavy lifting as I'm 7 months pregnant. My job was soil spreader. Was just a matter of working out how much soil and…

My husband worked his butt off today. My assistance has been rather minimal due to circumstances. He's done a great job.

Another busy weekend
Side path filled and levelled. Front dressed with soil, tree framed up and turf laid.

Long and tedious. SM went on Jury duty and the stand in did nothing. We were told to expect approx 3 weeks from PCI to handover, it ended up being…
