    A Complete Granny Flat Build

    I used these and had the supplier come and install it. http://www.qualityclotheslines.net/foldowns.html The prices are on the website. These are pricier than the ones serge listed, but installed two of these are my place (existing house + granny flat). Both are still going strong after being...

    Mindmaster, have you checked with the property manager whether the front tenant it is causing any disturbance? Based on the crap they caused during building, it wouldn't surprise me if they purposely caused issues (eg played loud music, swear loudly, etc) - general stuff that would put people...

    The S94 contributions should have already been paid. The granny flat CDC would not have proceeded without it. The other answer is that the council you're in don't charge it. Easiest way to confirm is to call up the council and ask them the question that if you were planning to build a granny...

    I highly doubt the painter did not do a very good job. Having met the builder you used and inspecting his work, I daresay its more that it that painters work wasnt up to the level the builder wanted. What is a decent job to others is a crap job in this particular builder's eyes. I'm talking...

I recently (<2 weeks ago) had AGL come and install the gas meter at my place. They put it at the front corner of the house (attached it to the house). If i were to put up a...

    Im pretty sure Air con can be installed post occupation certifiate without having to deal with Basix. Its more if the air con is installed at the time of construction that there would be an issue. Happy to be corrected here. Mindmaster, a quick phone call to Serge should clarify your AC issue...

    Actually i was thinking if mindmaster can get away with such a narrow gap (as shown in pic 2), how do i go about doing the same. LOL. Can I get someone to take a shot of that same space after cladding with a person standing in there (i need to fence off something similar and want to know how...

    In pic 2, thats the fence you installed to separate the granny flat and your front house right? Cos thats mighty close to the fence! Also, how will that room get any light given the fence pretty much blocks it?
