We've been slabbed!


Headed out to our block about 1.30pm today and the same 6 concretors were just finishing off. I was very impressed to see their attention to detail finishing off and cleaning up. They even swept the footpath!
Rumpus room

Our monster double shower in the ensuite!
Main bedroom
Garage
Concrete for the portico columns
Ensuite to the right with kitchen being the middle pipes
Garage in front
I  hope we dont get in trouble for this! lol!
Bedroom 3 in front with rumpus on the other side and alfresco in the middle
Rainwater slab then bathroom, wc & laundry pipes behind that
Rumpus, living and bedroom 1 at the front
Our very little back yard!
Looks like it takes up the whole block doesnt it?!
sOOOO happy to see our slab! Had our first celebratory dinner at the Pig N Whistle with the inlaws tonight to celebrate our first progress payment! lol!

  1. Congratulations!! Its great to see that slab finally!

    I hope the weather is kind to you for a while now ;)

    Its really interesting seeing the different siting of homes in different areas in terms of backyard space - our council regs meant we were supposed to leave ELEVEN metres between our rear wall and back fence but luckily for us we have land behind us that belongs to a bowling club that wont ever be built on so we received permission to leave only 9 metres!

  2. Hey Cassandra! Looking good! Do you know why that water pipe in your Ensuite is half on the slab and half off?

  3. Thanks Shayne. Yes lets hope we get some sunshine to get the frame up now! Yes the new building reg's in our area say you have to get a certain number of people per m2 so this means the blocks are getting smaller, the yards are getting tiny but there are a lot of parks which is good for us as there is one right over the road! I wish'd we could have had a yard but we bought the biggest block there was for sale, 572m2!
    Robert - not sure what this is, saw it again todsay. Not too fussed at this stage tho.
