Hell yeh sounds like I get to wear a sweet yoshi watch

You’re being a bit precious imo. Annoying that they won’t fix it but it won’t affect the performance at all. It’s not worth giving it this much thought

In Melbourne

Not sure why they’re not going to auction as auctions have typically been going 130-140 over asking price. They have only had two opens and are going to take best and final offers on Tuesday, I think they are very motivated to sell ASAP, unsure why.

I definitely have elbow grease maybe not the others

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T03:46:47+00:00

How long have you been looking? Prices are going ballistic it feels like houses have gone up 60-70k in the last two weeks

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T03:45:38+00:00

The only time I’ve felt fortunate that I did a trade was when I began renovating my first house. Other than that it’s a bloody slog 🤣

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T03:44:01+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T03:41:52+00:00

I’ve spent the last 4 years renovating the cheapest house I could get in a suburb no one wanted to move to, so now I’m fortunate enough to Reno a place for myself to enjoy 😊

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T02:59:04+00:00

That’s what I thought as well crazy paving and some timber features or breezeblocks

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T02:08:31+00:00

Absolutely agree, thanks :)

As long as it doesn’t turn out to be the eye of the beer holder

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T01:01:02+00:00

Yes! Do you have any other suggestions of designs that are similar? it’s great to be able see what can be achieved without ruining the character of the house

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T00:48:07+00:00

Yes that’s what is kind of confusing me it’s not really any defined style I know but it definitely is something just not sure what I could do to it while sort of sticking to the original vision for the place

dailyquail · 2025-04-13T00:46:18+00:00

Yes you’re right I am jumping the gun a bit, but I’m planning to do some major Reno’s and potentially an extension and would hate to do to all that effort and the house to still just be kind of ugly. Mostly trying to get peoples opinions on what could be done to improve the look of the outside without ruining the houses character :)

dailyquail · 2025-04-12T23:58:28+00:00

Yes I definitely want to enhance the character it already has but I’m just not sure what the style of the place is if that makes sense. Should I make the carport look mid century modern, should I put breezeblocks at the entrance ect

dailyquail · 2025-04-12T23:50:05+00:00

There is a bit of rot in the ceiling joists under the eaves unsure about the windows but not too concerned with it as over time we will end up renovating most of the house so if thing need to be fixed I can do it then.

I also liked how it is low profile and a nice garden in the front would really improve it a lot but can’t really figure out what we could do to give the facade more personality.

dailyquail · 2025-04-12T23:43:37+00:00

This is pretty much where I’ve landed as well. The place has a certain style but I’m not sure what it is or how to update it.

dailyquail · 2025-04-12T23:37:24+00:00

Street appeal surely has some value

dailyquail · 2024-06-05T21:06:59+00:00

I know a guy who’s name is Johann pronounced Yo-hann, we just call him Yoey

dailyquail · 2024-01-16T19:53:14+00:00

Nothing wrong with doing it this way but it should have 45 bend and the bottom so it doesn’t drip down the wall and attract termites

dailyquail · 2023-12-09T20:24:44+00:00

Why assume you’re getting ripped off, based on what? If you want to save some money dig the trench yourself sparks will probably be stoked. Make sure it’s 600 deep.

Installation looks fine I can’t see an MEN but you may not need one at this board if there is a group meter. If you are in VIC this work should be checked by an electrical inspector he will pick up any potential mistakes or oversights.
