I just want timeout. Somewhere that won’t cost a fortune, yet down-time from Sydney streets and a moment to unwind and detach from work chaos. I’m having travel withdrawals. There, I’ve said it. #fomo seeing family and friends travel the world. It’s the year (or two) of road trips. B&Bs,…
Hel-lo treated timber delivery. It’s like a gift that keeps on giving – each time we visit the home build, we receive another treat. Today, our frames have arrived and I honestly can’t believe how fast this is moving. When I look at the pieces stacked up, all I…

I have. We’ve spent the last few months making decisions, choices, sleepless nights, reoccurring display home visits, online research, you name it, it’s…
After a series of PCVs raised during the contract phase, here’s another acronym to add to the list – Building Variation aka BV.
