They dont leak, we have half a dozen of 32mm versions.
But buying the rubber seal for the pop-up cover part is impossible.
After 5 years the seals hardened and…

Hello,
I haven't been here for a while as we finished our house and been in it for few years now.
I thought I share the outcome here.
We have around…

Underground stormwater pipes issues happen to this plumbing company and builder that I think you are using. Is it B... and C...? I have seen their sites where pipes were…

Yes, everything has been taking a lot of time.

I have several 19mm bolts loose but the builder says they are not.
Builder says: "if you can not turn them with fingers... they are not loose"
I can turn them…

Would greatly appreciate if someone could advise (or point me to) ball park prices for these products please:
- Enviroseal Proctor Wall Wrap RW
…

Correct. Termoseal is one of possibilities. There seems to be "entry"=termoseal or "premium"=proctor. But I am guessing... there might be some other bulk options available to builders... so its…

I tried twice. Third time lucky perhaps...
We are after permeability not R. Our wall insulation is maxed already so moisture management (to allow escape outside through wrap) is important to…

Would anyone be able to tell me what *that* might be in terms of a product?
My builder is including it as "standard" but is seems unable to advise the actual…

I think we finally matched that colour: Alpolic's medium bronze metallic (M9221 Medium Bronze Metallic (G30)). The sample is very close.

Crazyk - Thanks. I think I understand your point but (sorry) I don't think Dulux based powder coat will be able to recreate that look. My plan B is to…

Crazyk, interesting thinking out of the square box. Would you have a url to a photo?
Below is a sample of the texture and colour we are trying to get:

All walls are rendered. We like a particular metallic colour for a bit of the front facade feature.
Has anyone perhaps used Alpolic in Melbourne?

How much should we roughly budget for a front fence?
About 170cm and 15m long, rendered from concrete blocks. Around 20-24cm thick (not sure what the block sizes are).

Alucobond would be good but, so far, we have not been able to match the colour we are like on another building.
So hoping we could match the colour with…

Wow, we have a conclusion.
The builder advised we will not need any water tanks and the system will be included in the standard…

Hi, building a new house and would like to bring all meters (electricity, gas and water) to the front gate area hidden in a neat enclosure.
Seen some houses with…

Not sure how that would work (but think would need it) as our pipes would be underground. Would you dig a pit (with some lid) around the lowest part?

I spoke with a drainage engineer and looks 2 options maybe a possibility.
1) Dry and wet pipes, no tank. Possibly connecting all closer downpipes to a dry segment separate…

Thanks. Good setup!

thanks

"...Drain in front of the garage..."
The driveway would have a small fall towards the footpath so I would assume the water would not sit there.

Have not. This is one of the things we need to resolve.

I have an update on my side. Had some further conversation with the builder and now I am told the house needs to be raised only 200mm (improvement from the…

Our planned kitchen is also 940 with island 960. By the way, I do like your bin solution! That Blum Tandembox... D I think size. Could you please tell us…

These drawers actually take a lot longer to put together and install
Yes, it is disappointing that Blum decided to kill the standard drawer + soft closing option combination. For…

Just wondering what is the typical price builders charge
and if there is difference if drawers are fitted in after handover?
I can see online the Blum TandemBox (nowadays only with…
