A friend of mine got $50 a day, however, they added 4 weeks onto the build.

Adding on to this, has anyone been able to move the unit from the backyard? That will likely be near my daughter's bedroom.

I think it'smore and more likely we will be doing floors after handover

Hey Wazza,
any issues with going with flooring after handover? What are your plans re skirting etc?

have only been to external colours, which was at Austral Bricks.
It was amazing, we were done in 20 mins. It helps that we knew what we were after before…

yeah looking at the plans, i cant see what you want to do being too much.... 1-2k tops, but even that sounds expensive.

I am pretty sure the brick was load bearing, also glass costs a fair bit. But, yes - it is expensive. Everything is expensive and doesn't matter what…

Hey KSM,
We are only just past final plans, however, we did make some structural changes.
We chose the Brighton 27.5 and opted to remove the side outdoor room to make one…

Cheers,

Thanks for that.
My friend is also building, however, is worried that the proposed train line will run right under his house near lowndes street.
Does anyone have any concens regarding this?

hey all,
Does anyone know if there has been an update on the train line situation? Do we know if it will be above ground, or underground?
Cheers,
Brendan

Hey Lexh,
Just wondering how you went with colours and electrical?
Also - I noticed you mentioned colorbond roof and removing the little raise in the floor to the bathrooms. We…

I disagree.
