the problem is that what you're suggesting isn't going to shorten the argument in the event the issue does arise. because it will still be a matter of reports and…

it's not a general slope. It's landscaping done by the builder as part of the foundation/drainage design.
Sure the neighbours site cut is not the OPs fault, but again there is…

you could, but depending on where it would discharge and the impact of that discharge, you could end up with a different problem. considder strannik's point about amplifying. You may…

is that the argument you want to have with the neighbour when (not if) it happens?
Keep in mind that the builders created the artificial grading away from the house…

You are responsible for ensuring you don't direct water towards their property. As it stands now, you are. As it stands with a perimeter path with adequate fall you will…

there's another thread they talk about running an IT company....while its not unfathomable to be a doctor that run an IT company, Im kind of getting a clear picture of…

Hi,
Ive got a couple double glazed units i need to replace inside existing frames. I've found an online supplier that can make them to size quite cheap.
I'm looking…

I'm a bit disappointed this loser hasn't bitten back. Must be doing more important things, cos you know, rich people don't use the internet much (though that's apparently changing).

You don't need internet to have CCTV recording onto an NVR. You would only need the internet if you want to remotely access or back up the vision.

Hope you enjoy paying the yearly waterproofing inspection to maintain your warranty

Hi All
New to the forum here and I am in the process of locking down a builder for my first home.
I've narrowed it down…

Depends on the bal level and size of the house.
We had a 12.5 BAL on 32 square house. 7.5k
It's all stuff we would have done anyway and if it…

Actually is just one misogynistic Perth millionaire who for some reason reads subtext in posts that doesn't exist and flys off the handle like a 5 year old who…

if you click in you can see more detail. The reason there's so many silt pits is that the way the option was sold by the builder was 25LM of…

its not an ideal orientation to begin with. all that will happen if you flip this is your living areas will cop all the afternoon heat and light instead of…

Cheers, lessons learned. the extra drainage really needed to be done at build because all the siltpits that the spoon drains connect to need to connect to storm water. Not…

didnt you know, building a million dollar house in Perth earns one the right to be a cnut.

in my current house, i had the builder install the concrete path. They installed it with non compliant slope (read: zero slope) and I had them redo it. They put…

Drop bears

Hi All,
When I compare these homes and their base prices, Rawson and Metricon are of similar prices for homes of similar size, but Clarendon seems odd to me... Their Mosman…

Yeah they do try. To be fair there is also heaps of nutters that see a hairline crack and go bonkers at builders. Glad they took a look and decided…

No it's not how it should look, but the guide to standards and tolerances will clarify.
Sometimes things can look bodge but be within tolerance. Most of the time though…

some of that is atrocious, some it it not so much. Overall its below average.
splashes from the wash probably wont be much an issue after its painted. But the…

Firstly, you won't be locking prices in with builds that far in advance. Prices with most volume builder are increasing monthly. The base price of the house I am building…

The first picture looks like these some water damage. Is that paint bubling to the right if the crack?
Third pick looks like the cracks have been filled before.
Seems there…

Maplewood is coming along. That whole side next to the reservoir is much more progressed than the maps show. If you were on the other side of Exford road, that's…

I live not far and I am building in the area you are. I know the area well. which estate are you building in, i can give you some indication…

Too funny
