This worked perfectly. The question I have now is how to reset the little tab back to the restriction position? The reason I want to be able to open these…

Ok so they would have had to paint it the first time around too then. Unless it's another product.. either way, it looks like the specific colour we want, which…

We are building with Clarendon Homes for the second time and we are wanting to have a dark blue cladding colour applied to the front of the house. Can anyone…

That's a good point. Didn't think about that. It might look a lot better without the blinds at all. We don't have privacy issues at the back as it is…

Hey all
We are in the very early process of reconstructing our home. One of the thing we are doing this time is to have a grand alfresco and we are…

We're getting our landscaping through Gydan Outdoor Solutions based in Camden. They're coming all the way to Kellyville to do it.. pretty decent of them. Hehe.. All up it's…

Rain rain rain...
We have a massive pile of soil on our front lawn now, waiting on the turf and landscaping to get going and of course it starts raining. Hoping…

Pretty sure they were just the standard, but thick, towels.. we already had same towels from a previous gift from a real estate agent, so they go well with them.

That tool chest they give you is actually really handy. They stock it with some tools too, to get you started. I've already used the supplied tools at least a…

It's been a few weeks since we moved in and this is the first time I've had even a second to think about writing anything.. and even now I am…

Got the big move happening today. We are all hellishly tired but still many hours to go. Removalist will arrive in 50 minutes to start loading.
Quick photo of our…

Got a few options regards to the bath. I can keep the one they installed, which I tried to tonight and it is actually quite lovely, and they will either…

Yeh, the SS is going to rectify it of course. He acknowledged it was the wrong bath ordered but of course it's not a quick fix unfortunately. Need to reorder…

So.. handover.. hrmm.. I need more time to put my thoughts in order. There are some really obvious mistakes that were made by Clarendon, not the least of which was…

There's someone near me who is a owner-builder and they had their house done in 8 weeks.. lol.. and it looks as good, at least on the outside, as all…

It's shocking to hear about. And the things that do get installed aren't always installed correctly either and its so obvious even to a non expert that they installed it…

At this stage I'd be giving a 4 star.. minor bumps along the road, poor communication on admin. SS was a superstar, can't really blame him for the delays as…

So just a Clarendon Homes review? or is it the specific name of the SS for the review? Just curious how they associate the review with the build etc

mrrrrt is in North Kellyville, same as me, for the build.
I wonder when they will actually start officially calling it North Kellyville, or whether it will become Kellyville Ridge or…

Our driveway was done by Clarendon. It was part of our package right from the very beginning.
For fencing, we are going with All Hills Fencing. For landscaping, we are going…

One more sleep for me, then it's handover time!
The only thing that bugs me about taking our house is that the landscaping isn't done.…

Think of it in terms of value, or in terms of completion. It's the same result. They come and compare your original tender (what things are supposed to be there)…

Yeh, I just bought two routers out-right.. I may end up with too much coverage but I want it all setup and going from the first week without any blackspots…

Yup. They totally want to see what the value of the property is in the unfortunate event that you default on your loan and they need to sell it to…

Take your plans! Take any other diagrams or PCV stuff!
Try and find a walk-through checklist on the internet and print it off and take it with you!
Take your time, ask…

Oh that bit is easy enough. The bits I am talking about is connecting the router to the switch, then the switch to the ports in the house, then connecting…

Two more sleeps till we get our keys! Woohoo!
I've been pouring over user manuals and network setup guides on how to setup the network. It's…

*looks at desktop PC*
No-one uses PCs anymore?? WTF? That's crazy talk!
Laptops are for mobility but nothing beats a desktop PC for a fixed location. If you're going to put…

Here's a post of Sydney-build's setup in the Hills Hub.. I got the same switch as he did.
I've even ordered some coloured cat6 cables to connect it all in the…

Yeh, that would annoy me too.. sure, there are knots in wood.. it's part and parcel of wood.. but that is a hideous knot.
As for the networking stuff.. yeh.. it's…
