That towel rail issue should’ve been picked up on the floor plans, how’s it shown on the plan, or better - where’s it shown on the plan? If that’s on…

The electrician will attach them to the timber rafter, non issue.

That looks mint 😍

Why TF they used bolts that long who knows, morons.
Anyway the post should be fine. If they haven’t already put a couple of 4inch nails in to stop…

Layout looks awesome, I’ll have a closer look later but can’t see too much wrong with it atm.
Edit - Wrt fireplace I’d put it either on a 90 degree angle…

3.5m would be way big enough.

I’d put them there for sure.

Those savings are more based on knowing all the trades so you get mates rates. Also easier organising. The other side to that is getting them to site as they…

Hey glad you resolved it but wow that’s a fair chunk of money to lose. Good luck moving forward 👍🏻

$80,000 display home, is it a caravan? 😁

So even if they had plugs on them, you’d still have to test each one to find out where in the house it’s located, yes?
We had a similar issue 12yrs…

So you’ll need a kitchen, lounge, bedroom & ensuite as a minimum, and seperate access (especially if renting to strangers). Dining can be done at island bench.
As a minimum…

The reason they ask for your budget is so they don’t come out, measure up, gather info, prepare a quote, and then you tell them you can’t afford it.

That actually looks pretty cool, and the cladding on the top right works too. Speak to the builder and see what he reckons, how it could be attached to look…

It’s the same as the facade you originally posted, hopefully the matrix cladding won’t look like it’s tacked on if you go ahead.
How come the windows ended up opposite,…

Delete the skinny pantry and extend the desk area into it (that’s how it’s shown on the main floor plan anyway).

I have a mate that built just around the corner and he did his place in Lemon Spotted Gum, it looks great but if he’d gone the Mountain Spotted Gum…

Where are you building this house, if it’s in a cooler climate you’ll obviously lose lots of heat up into these voids during the cold months?
I’ve always found that whilst…

Karndean Korlock installation in Ballarat “Australian Ghost Gum”.

What’s your internal surface going to be that adjoins the alfresco?

What are you talking about?

Hey not wanting to bring the mood down but you mentioned you were able to walk in as door hadn’t been locked. Maybe just be extra vigilant this weekend, tradies…

Remember also, doing it after handover means coming up with the cash for it..... if M do it, you can include it in the mortgage.
Which gives the added bonus of…

So I assume you know what they are charging you for the variations, they just haven’t been noted in the contract???
Metricon (and most (all) of the volume builders) will charge…

A contract is a legally binding document and not something you sign because of pressure and/or excitement.
Maybe (obviously) the homework should’ve been done before the signing.
Anyway better to…

I think they are including their WIR & ensuite in that measurement, if not then I fully concur with you.
