hi congrats on your land and welcome to home building.
in terms of your question, i am always of the opinion to engage the specialists for the job. therefore i…

I would be discussing your intentions with your ss if you plan on using one. There may be impacts to timing and I have even heard of builders trying…

curious as to what your end game is here. yes there is a wait, but you're going to have to wait for any builder in this climate and if…

My experience:
We initially tried to have a chat with CG, however found them to be unresponsive at sales stage (which didn't bode well given they're trying to win your business).…

unfortunately the wife isn't keen on having the house floorplan etc on the internet.
happy to answer any questions you might have though.

pretty sure what is allowed is going to depend on your builder. if you are still going with TA then they do not allow structural variations once contract signed.…

Hi fellow TA builders
Does anyone have any recommendations for window furnishings and are happy to share a contact?
Thanks

when you say sealed, what do you mean? with what product?

This is probably design specific, however a few examples are:
- Because our roof pitch is quite low, there is limited space in the roof cavity. We had planned…

wow that is a long wait. was that mainly due to delays on TA's end?
I have just completed lock up so hopefully not too much longer to go. …

we were charged a fee around that amount for facade design (as our is custom). re establishment survey was also required as we are doing a pool and the…

I would recommend it. Note that the builder will probably put in a variation to increase the build days if you use one. I have also seen some…

i was initially referring to the external part of the window frame and the hebel. internally it would just be frame to plaster.

i confirmed with the site supervisor that windows will be caulked between frame and hebel. Will just have to monitor that this is done by the time build finishes.

$1762 / sqm seems reasonable.
best way to get a rough idea would be to go to a volume builder website, select a plan that is similar to what you're building…

random question - for those who have finished or are close to finish on your TA build, can you let me know if your windows are caulked between the hebel…

might want to consider what cooktop you are getting as well. We were told certain rangehoods work better with induction cooktops (re: your other post around all electric house)…

i'm no expert, however the number of zones I would suspect depends on how you live in the house and how efficient you want the system to be. Obviously…

literally the first hit in google, if you bothered to search 'BAL 12.5 requirements'

my install price included 5 metres, so technically paid for the additional 14. I think it was about $75/m ?

looks like prices have increased.
that's how much I paid for about 19metres from pole.

do you work for demo logic Chris? seems like you just made an account to market for them.

you apply, they assess and send you an invoice and you have I think 90 days to pay if you want to proceed.

i have just the slab down and windows / door in. It's probably about 40-50mm now so with flooring i'd expect it to come to about 20mm or so?

so I was at my build over weekend and coincidentally the concreter was there too to do some rectification work. We had a nice long chat on all things…

don't think you can force the issue unless you are willing to walk away. my understanding is that the builder has control of the site during construction and to…

To all those building with TA, have you given any thought to whether you're going to do anything on your gutters? I think TA's style utilises box gutters and…

I am unsure of your terminology, however to answer the question in the title of the post.
Where the appointed building surveyor needs to do a reinspection, my view is that…

i'm not sure specific pricing is going to help much as it is customised to the house (i.e. roof config, number of zones, types of venting etc).
to give you some…

Yes hydronic can be optioned up.
The number of systems / power will depend on the % coverage you are looking for. From memory the HVAC consultant…
