Driveway

Hi everyone,
Been a while since I last posted!
Finally today we got our driveway done. My god it costs alot just for concrete! Now hopefully start landscaping the front within the next few wks!

Fencing has been painful. People not showing up, especially after calling 8 of them! They say they are coming, they just don't seem to want to do a fence on that retaining wall! Arghhhh

In terms of the house only major issues are 3 things: leak into front door! No weather strip on bottom of door & a crack in the right hand corner front pane which the wood has now warped after heavy rains. And 3 leaks in garage!
One plumbing issue!! Water pressure upstairs is very weak! Plumber & PD construction manager coming by on Monday! A few other tiny things but they can wait until 3 month maintenance!

Curtains - hopefully will be happening soon! Getting quotes ATM!!

In terms of the house we are loving it :-) I'm even loving cleaning it! That won't last long lol!

We are in!

Hi everyone,
We moved in on wednesday, unpacking all day Thursday & still a few boxes to unpack!
Am pretty happy :-)
A few hiccups! Telstra man came yesterday & apparently the hub in garage is working but not the points in house!!! So hopefully they come out pretty quickly. Foxtel is coming Monday so will be interesting to see if they can hook it up!!
Phone on, appliances installed on Thursday, PD forgot to organise my ducted vac installation, so that will be Monday wk.
A few hiccups, but we are pretty ecstatic & love the house.

Hi everyone,
So handover is booked for tomorrow at 2.00pm. What a stressful time it is organizing the bank valuation and making sure the cheque will be ready tomorrow!!!
On my way home I brought a bottle of Moët to celebrate tomorrow when we get the keys.
It's chilling in the fridge ATM! Lol
