Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 12y 7m 28d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 19/03/17 10:12 AM Share Posted 19/03/17 10:12 AM Fark pixy.. I mean holy sh*t..I remember looking at your plans ages ago. That water is not good. If this is on the lower levels and the waterproofing is gone behind your retaining.. well sh*t.. Damn man. Not slagging all builders but that 'your fault not mine' is something ive heard way too many times. Just recently did a walk through of a mates house after they finished framing it all up and two of the roof trusses had massive fractures in them. Builder agreed they needed to be replaced but said they couldnt enact the 16 week penalty if he didnt complete if they made him get them replaced. I <3 Bananas me man.. they could fracture at any point.Pixy ive got no advice you probably havent heard. Just take it one step at a time mate. You deserve that house to be brilliant. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All work can be done by someone else and they can pay for it. Over them Spoke with my next door neighbour yesterday who is in the construction game and he said he spoke to the builder when the garage slab was getting done and told him its wrong because they did but a step in the slab and did not water proof behind the dincel wall............LOL love it.

Huge back yard for the boys (we won't fence) and a huge multi use alfresco I'm pretty happy with our concept considering 90% is custom designed by us and we had criteria and budget to conform with. We're also having full stone bench tops, huge pivot front door and a bunch of other options in the kitchen Etc Super excited, hopefully it all happens and council do what they say and approve it Ps. Mostly happy coz I will get to live within 6kms from the cbd again and beach weeeeeeeeee 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How big are the rooms upstairs (2 and 4) in the bigger house? Also please put double vanities in the master suite, azz will thank me later...lol Weather has set us back a bit but not really fussed as its not hot enough to swim now. Tiler came in yesterday and did the coping and waterline tiles, just needs to finish the feature wall. Then plumbing, almost there.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm dyslexic and cannot turn off simple functions in tapatalkSince the bathroom is open plan it's gonna be whatever is astetically pleasing to a certain point too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednose RNS10S Donating Members 2,229 Member For: 17y 7m 12d Gender: Male Posted 21/03/17 09:40 AM Share Posted 21/03/17 09:40 AM Nice, that was the deciding factor for us. Al the homes we saw had massive master suites but smallish bedrooms. Our house has a 6 x 4 master (plus walk-in and ensuite) and the other 3 rooms are 5 x 3. Plenty of room for the kids beds, tallboys and desks with left over room for it not to feel cramped. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
