Good one... yours are included. Ours were not. Just double check the draught excluders when they put them on.... they put standards on ours, not the correct ones that it…

light487 - do you have your flyscreens included with clarendon for your BAL? We had an issue where we were doing them after handover... but couldn't get handover until we…

as far as the conduit to Telstra goes... it doesn't say in the contract specifically that it should go to the TP... mine says exactly what your does - that…

so I have a hot tip for you all.... if you have asked clarendon to put in a batten light fitting that you intend on putting a pendant light on…

Here is our standard staircase. We did pay extra ($600) for the half wall at the top instead of the railing... To create a little study nook eventually.

Our slab hadn't even dried. And the invoice was in my inbox...

DG85... Our splashback is tile. We paid about $800 on a tile upgrade to something nice... cause I'm not a glass fan.

LauraKG, yes we have Gemini silver walls... And I love it. Not purple at all!
We have grey carpet and tiles too... So maybe that helps. Took that photo while…

@DG85... Yes roller blinds from blindsonline.com.au. The living areas are filter, but the bedrooms are block out. They are good, but I'll be getting some sort of decorative curtain to…

Justwondering.... That's the inside... But you have NO bricks?!?!? At all?!? Do you have a pic of the outside? Surely the gyprock is getting damp?!?!

I don't think I shared the "finished product" with floor coverings, etc. so here goes....

Just a friend of a friend @sheilzy.... Retired guy. I'm in Newcastle too... So prob no help to you anyway

Nah, not really to be honest. But I've cleaned and the dust just re appears! Going to give it a good vac before the carpet goes on top!

If anyone needs me tomorrow I'll be at Kennards hiring an industrial vacuum to clean up all the goddam plaster dust! I've wiped and wiped and it keeps coming back!!!!

@denot... Sorry, tool drawers, full of tools. And a set of Sheridan towels.

Here it is! Still so much work to do! Floor coverings started this morning driveway tomorrow...

We are now the proud owners of a beautiful Clarendon home... And some great handover presents!!!

Final cheque in my hand... Off to what will hopefully be handover... Wish me luck!!!

We have a meeting in the morning and this is our main issue... And I can see it being a massive fight. They have been "fixed" again since those photos…

These are the photos I do have... First is the crappy silicone that was put over the top of chipped edges
Next is the rough job on the edges. Also,…

We don't either really... We have one weekend left available to move... And need to get tiles and carpet done. I can prob wait until about Wednesday next week... But…

@wearemoving... Exciting stuff!
I have our tiler booked for Monday... As well as handover. Got the paperwork (no occupation certificate) the bank wanted, so just to wait and see if…

@denot ... I met our SS in person for the first time at our PCI....

@nelly83... What design are you building?

@sydney-build. Sort of... the parapet is the section on the left that sticks out in front of the garage. No one told us this would go right along the front…

Sorry for the delay. Internet issues. But I took a new photo on the way home... Side of the house with the vents, meter box, pipes etc:
And also the…

Oh, ordered my blinds yesterday... The architraves need to be up for measuring, and then you need access to measure, so that one is a pain!

They go so quick once they start. We are doing tiles downstairs which I ordered through tile direct when we did their selections (20% cheaper to do after handover), and…

@nelly83... Yes, flooring after handover... And blinds. So that makes it a little quicker.
