November 19th

Yes that's right, November 19 is set as the date for handover!

Had a call from my SS today to advise that the Certificate of Occupancy has been approved, he has the painters coming in tomorrow to fix the facade and touch up around the house. His Manager will go through with him probably Wednesday and then Quality Assurance. He will then walk me through the house and my Inspector will go through on Monday.

It's now happening so fast. I have so much to do and so much more to pack. I am surrounded by 'to do' lists and have not crossed anything off. It's time to get organised!

Will keep you updated.

  4. Hi Robert

    Metricon did both my Decking and Driveway. Are you in Melbourne? I have heard that they do not do these in Queensland however I do not know how true this is.

    The Driveway is a product called Fauxtex which is supplied through a company called Concrete Technologies. You can google the product as I am sure there are quite a few companies that use it. It is stamped and the colour added at the time of pouring. It is meant to be two toned however it was not looking that two toned at the time that I took the photos.

    Hope this helps

    Like Janine said, it's been a pleasure to be able to follow your build (even though we haven't met you yet).
