Hi there
We ended up going with a local Ballarat builder Classic Homes co. We have been in our house 2 months (time flies) had a relatively easy build process with…

Zoned heating works great for us. Only two people in this house so we heat the areas we need coupled with spending $$ on making sure we put good insulation…

We have zoned heating as well. Best thing ever. You can heat the areas you want.

Well our skirting boards went down last cause of the floor boards. But I reckon to do all off that above is about 6 weeks depending on weather.

Handover went well today. There a couple of things left to do like they have to hose down the alfresco area its dirty but they waiting for the bobcat guy…

I'm building in Ballarat. Which builder are you going through?

Any ideas how not to make the sewer drain outlet so visible.

How disappointing is that.

.
Keys on Friday all going to plan.

Hopefully, by the end of September you will be moving into your new house too.

Glad to be nearly at the finish line and out of our rental property.

Thank you. We are very pleased with it.

All seems well. Just some painting to do. Door handles on the doors and doors to be adjusted if required. Fences are going in this week and the Painters will…

Though wood would be nice too. Probably $$$

Wouldn't they paint it?

Popped by house today as we have PCI tommorrow. They have commenced the tiles outside. Just need to grout them. Also started finishing off the island bench. Wasn't too sure…

Lots to check over. I have to remember to bring my plans and PCI to make sure everything is all there. Make sure you get what you paid for. There…

I think we got same door handles as you.

Also PHD main bathroom has no window. Need to ask them about site costs and depends if you want the Master bedroom at rear or front of house.
Ask them…

Looking great. We have hopeful handover date of 17 August. We are not doing PCI until 10 August.

Just standard height ceilings. I wish they would have been higher but I had to restrict all my wants to needs.

It’s just an aggregate concrete mix. We not sure how it would turn out as the poured it then had to cover it as the rains came down but it…

Popped by house tonight. Garage door installed, water tank installed, carpet done. And we still have out big pond.

Yes I travel by train. Takes just over an hour on the train. Vline service. Those land prices are ridiculous.

Wow your house is so big

would have really popped with the white grout too.

Got emailed our occupancy certificate tonight. Still some stuff to do on the house. I guess not far away now.

Same. Fencing is the responsibility of the landowner i.e us.

What are the land prices in those suburbs?. But I think $250K for a house size of 265-280 sqm might be a bit on the skinny side. Land in Melbourne…
