Thanks, will do. Sir Grange is nice but pricey.

I haven't done the turf yet, that will be last, but will be using Sir Walter Buffalo. I have this in the front and it's great. It's drought and shade…

Hi Guys,
I'm currently in the process of doing the landscaping for my backyard. Fairly basic design, a rectangle shape that is 9m long by 5.7m wide, with a 0.5m garden…

No idea if it's legal or not, but this does not surprise me. Building contracts are heavily biased towards the builder...it's really unfair, and they keep making things worse. Good…

I built with Mimosa. This must be something they only introduced recently, as I was allowed to have inspections. I read someone else mention this new fee as well. They…

Which builder is this? It's the first I've heard of it.

Thanks mate, these options look good. I'll call them now for a price. When staining a front door, do I need to apply a top coat, or is it the…

Wondering if someone can assist. When I chose my colours for my new house, I wanted a timber stained door to match with the timber parts of my facade…

help with splashback issue in new house

they attempted to rectify by re-tiling the whole lot straight over the top AGAIN. I actually can't believe I'm back to square one. Talk about being stressed out!

so the tiler ended up grouting over the top of the wrong grout with the correct colour. I brought this up with the building manager as it was obvious this…

Yeah tell me about it. Only thing I can think of is if they've rectified it between the time I saw it and now. Some of the guys doing these…

help with splashback issue in new house

Hi Guys,
Just an update on this, the builder agreed to re-do the entire splashback, so they ripped it down, re-plastered that section and re-tiled it. Problem is that the grout…

Problem with return air vent location

Not sure would have to check. Does ducted heating have a return air vent at all? Could also be for that and I may have mistaken it for the evap.…

Yeah I know how evap works and I was confused when I saw it as well, but all the display homes had a return air vent as well (with evap),…

Incorrect. It's definitely a return air vent as noted by the 'RA' on the plans as shown in the pic above, and the ducting for the evap system is connected…

It's a return air vent for the evaporative cooling. What other vent would there be?

Painting is already done. They cut the hole after the painting was complete. I've still asked for it to be moved. I've never seen this installed in the ceiling, but…

The plans don't state where the cutout should be, only the location of the return air (see pic). In all the display homes I went to, including the one my…
