Hi guys, Here's some new photos as promised. The gyprock is partly up, tomorrow the ceiling is being done and everything is going along nicely. I spoke to the kitchen company the other day with some questions in regard to a dishwasher we bought over Christmas and they told me that the expected day of installation is late February. Can't wait. Anyway enjoy the pics.   Hans   See the

Hi guys, Another update from the building front. A few days before the xmas holiday i was talking to our bricky and he said that early in the new year they were going to wrap the house in plastic?? We didn't know what he was talking about but we do now. Two days ago after a visit to the chiropractor i thought let's have a look at our house. And as i drove up, the house was covered in blue

Hi guys, It's been a while since i last posted something but unfortunately the build had stalled for a bit. We have no idea why but it's out of our control anyway. The bricky finally started this week, he was supposed to have started last week but the site supervisor needed him elsewhere elsewhere so that was another week lost for us and now he's on his xmas break for three weeks. I assume once

Hi guys, Here's the latest news in regards to the building of our house. Last week nothing much happened, the only thing we noticed had changed on Saturday, was the windows had been installed and the roof sheeting had been delivered. So on Monday, (yesterday) we went and had a look and the result is shown in the photos below. I gotta say, it makes a huge difference with the roof on, it's

G'day guys, Well we visited the block almost every day last week only to find building hadn't started, but today is the day that i can extremely happily announce that they have now started framing our house.Maybe they had to wait till the 1st of November who knows and who cares building has started and that's all that matters to us. I took some photos again so you can see what's going on, before

Hi guys, Just got back from the block and we're getting more and more excited by the minute, last Thursday the bricks and timber were delivered so if all goes well the chippies will start framing Monday. The frame will go up in no-time, a few days and the shell wil be erected. Then the brickies will come and finish the outside off. All of a sudden it all starts to becoming a reality eventhough

Hi folks, No big news this week, the concrete is still waiting to cure, my guess is another week and a half. Anyway i did go and have a look today to see if they had delivered the timber for the framing but unfortunately no. They did drop off the septic tank that will be buried in front of the house. Only the solids will be collected in there, all fluids will go down common effluent. You can see

See the full gallery on Posterous Yep the slab is down. Got a call from a vey excited Julie earlier saying they were pouring concrete, i was gonna have a look today anyway but now we're both excited. I had a chat to the guy who was working on finetuning the slab and he said they had planned to pour last week but the weather was too bad. Now we gotta wait for 2/3 weeks for the slab to cure

Hi,   Dropped in for a looksie today after returning from our wonderful relaxing weekend here's what's going on. It's just a matter of days before the slab goes down i think. According to the digger driver the plumber is coming tomorrow to lay the pipes etc.   See the full gallery on Posterous

Hi guys, I thought i would go and have a look at our block today to see if there's been any activity, since we've had the  go ahead from the builder. And it gives me great pleasure to show you that there's been some movement and preparation before the slab goes down. It doesn't look like much to you guys but to us it's a massive step forward. After all these months talking about it, planning it

Hi everyone,This week we finally got approval from the council in regards to them giving the OK to start building our house. In other words, we got the green light. The day after the council news we also received a phone call from our builder inviting us for a final builders interview. So this Friday we are going to this meeting to finalize the whole process. We will have to tell them where we

G'day folksHere's another update on what's been happening so far. Last month we made our selection in regards to tiles, carpets, basins taps etc. It took us a few hours to be fully satisfied and needless to say it all comes at a cost. You would think that once you've chosen the house and the finish as was displayed in the show home that would cover everything, but that's not the case, these

Hi guys, here is my first short "post" in relation to our dream home. I thought it would be a good idea to keep you informed during the construction of our house. I will add photos and perhaps videos during the build so you can stay up to date on the stage we are at. I have no idea how often I will post updates so it is up to you to occasionally visit this blog to see if there is any news.
