Couple of pics from ours. We had handover 22 Dec, couldn't move in till April as crucial elements weren't addressed (inside and outside). Still having major painting rectification done (today,…

Quality is quite good. The lines etc all line up correctly. The tilers were super neat and tidy too, especially the outside where they tried up areas that might get…

We also had same thinking. Note you need to do wet area tiling for the OC, I don't think any of the builders will let you do your own tiling…

Garage doors on. Looking at early December handover.

I think the extra is $90/lm

All depends on your building footprint and your actual land. I had 90lm allowance for my Woollahra, we went to 120 in the end as I have a slightly sloping…

Fence usually goes up after slab, well it did for me and a couple of other Provincial builds I observed.

Slight update. Very slow last 4 weeks, apparently waiting for a "good" painting crew.
Still looking at approx 4 weeks to handover with the following remaining: paint, electrical finishing, appliances…

Brick is Austral Urban One Chiffon. Was included in our package.
Woollahra includes tiles to ceiling. I think it looks nicer. However, if you change to a more expensive tile,…

Some recent tiling pics from various areas. Plus stairs, hasn't been stained or painted yet.

No worries, happy to help. I'll share some pics of the tiles if you like. The quality the was awesome too. We went timber status and were quite nervous, but…

We customised the kitchen quite heavily so the detailed plans were needed to be signed off. Detailed plans are always produced to send to kitchen manufacturer but if you stick…

Bricks completed 12 May, so around 4 months ago. I think the progress has been fairly good.

Site cleaned. Apparently painting starting the week (fingers crossed). 6 weeks to keys approx.

Yes we did, though the timing was on 'my' end, land took longer to register than expected. The only change however was in the base house price to the most…

Did they tell you what's the delay is? 11 weeks is a very long time. I also found they put fence only after the slab went down.

Thanks mate. I have a wide frontage, wanted a house with width so it didn't look silly. Happy with progress so far, construction is to a high quality - Houspect…

Good to see. Given the rain, might be a few days to the slab.
My upstairs roof is on. They were doing the eves (even in the rain) today.

Frames going up, need to organise Houspect

Contract signed on 05/09/2016
Private certifier approval 08/11/2016
Site scrape 11/11/2016

We were prompt with our side. Paperwork stages take time with Provincial.

Frames started going up yesterday

Drove past this week and looks like frames and steel beams delivered. Hoping to have frames started next week.

Hi guys, been a while since last post. We got piers just before Xmas then slab last week. Got Houspect for inspections and their slab report came back good, no…

Agree with patience comment, though it has been tested on our end. Over 12 months from initial tender to site scrape, hoping to have slab before Xmas. We actually abandoned…

Seems pretty quiet on this thread. How is everyone's build going?

We have exactly the same requirements and are getting Panasonic VL-SVN511 installed after handover. Needs cat 5/6 from front door to intercom location and one from intercom to router.

Yep finalised selections, just waiting for final contract tender. How long did that take you? Then I think the main thing is the private certifier approval.

A few of our final drawings, we changed the Woollahra kitchen and laundry setup slightly

Similar phase mate. We're finalising selections to get final drawings. This phase is frustrating as it took over 4 weeks to get quote for our requested kitchen changes (purely cosmetic).…
