Day 26 - 29/11/13


While we are waiting for AGL to connect power so they can start framing, a few things have been going on.

  • Nuvo Homes picked up some issues with our plans and windows today which is great to fix it now.
  • We finished door handles, tile selection, splashback colours etc (all under the Colours Menu above)
  • Workplace Health and Safety forced us to fence all the way around the property this week
  • We are now up to Working Drawings L, with some more detail added, change of colours for the buildings to see it better, fixing some flooring materials etc.
  • We have applied for electricity and gas with AGL, and they are just waiting on Energex to put the metre in place supposedly.  
All going well, framing may start early next week if power works.  That would be great to see it happen.

I am also meeting Anthony Rigg, our architect, onsite Monday to look over potential issues with the extra slope our site has due to the waffle pad being higher than anticipated, and less land cut (more landfill) occurred.  This may play havoc with the front yard, so looking at options.

Thanks to Luke Bacon who has come onsite and given a lot of great advise with the building, and Lincoln Justins who has helped me understand all the issues with termites etc.

Timber arrived today, so its starting!!
