Hi Everyone,
We are finally moved into our new Metford 3 weeks ago.
I just wanted to share a picture of our kitchen.

Pretty sure you can choose any available B&D garage door! Just check the website

Yep you're exactly right. Total width of our house was just over 15 meters & our block is 18 meters.

Thanks lewster looks great!

Hi Roops, sorry we haven't got around to creating a blog. If you have a look at the Metford 33 floor plan on the Rawson website, we've pretty much copied…

LOL yeh we pretty much did the same!

Great mock up floor plan robbie. Relocating bed3 door to be in line with bed2 looks a lot better in my humble opinion. Oh and shifting the alfresco is great…

Hi Robbie,
We placed the study at the front in between the garage and hallway - similar to the Metford 33.
We’re actually at Harrington Grove which is about 5 minutes away…

Hi Roops,
We're building the Metford 28 with an added study around the corner from where you guys are. We're about 6 weeks away from handover so feel free to ask…

Love the white against the dark floors Lewster. We are having white stone waterfall ends to our island with dark floors as well. I notice that you've had to do…

Hi Mel,
Loving how the front door matches your garage. Do you remember the name of your door stain? We are getting the Timbercoat garage in Merbau as well and our…

Hope everyone enjoyed the easter break!
Tarsha, congrats on moving in. Everything looks great!
Quick update from us. Our bricks started over a week…

Hi Mel did they fix the family room window that only had 2 panels instead of 3? Also which walls and other windows weren't right and which stage were they…

Hi Tarsha,
Glad your PCI went well! How'd you go with the tall shower!? It looks like it can be adjusted up and down? Is this the case?

Mel C - tiling looks great and great choice in colour too!

We must of had the same tradies so far... the site has been kept relatively clean which is good!

Thanks capital g! i'll have to speak to SS to see what can be done in the mean time

Thanks Mel, yours is looking great too. We always have a sticky…

Hi all,
Met with SS this morning to discover our bricks were not delivered as scheduled and won't be until the 12/3 . On a good note,…

one benefit of an alarm system is that it reduces your home & contents premium!

Thanks Tondar
We did the R2.0 rockwool insulation to the theatre room as well. We were charged $400 for it. Does that sound reasonable?

Hi Tondar,
Are you getting the Anticon as well as the normal insulation batts to the roof?
How much was the price difference between Anticon and sarking if you don't mind…

Good progress to report here too.
Our frames were started this week. Hoping the weather holds out for the next couple of days so they can finish by friday.
Just a…

Thanks Tarsha, Forg and Munchi
You're right - it wouldn't be ideal for the wine to be above the fridge due to the heat the fridge may give off. We would…

Hi everyone,
We were going through our kitchen plans again and asked Rawson for a quote to get a wine rack above the fridge. We have been quoted $510 for 3…

Hi Tarsha - some photos as requested

MelC - Awesome pics. Love the big fixed window and the bi-fold doors.
We are building a Metford 28 with the trend fascade as well around the corner from the Hermitage.…

That seems fair. Our SS picked up our file on the 15th of Jan so that would put it to just over 4 weeks for frames

post got cut off.
We had our slab laid mid last week and our frames aren't due to be delivered until 14th Feb. Is it normal for such a wait…

Hi Everyone,
Like Design-it, I've been following the forum for quite some time and learnt so much from all of you sharing each step of your build.
We had our…

Hi melc1001,
Tell us a little about your build.
