Hi, What an exciting position to be in! What area do you live in?

Would cutting off the old metal strip flush with the tiles be what you want? If so I have found my little Dremel tool the most hand tool for this type of job. Just needs a bit of patience and selection of the right cutting wheel.

The build was appatently 'over $4 million' . It is in the established part of Takapuna , so my guess is that someone paid well over $2 million for an old home and demolished it or moved it to Northland or similar . So you are at least $6 million . I'm not sure if that counts as a family home ? From the street , it would be relatively easy to drive past it and not think it is anything special But it seems a bit more than a 'family home' inside

Hi houzz family, I'm looking for guidance in selecting a builder for my project. I have a piece of land located in the northern suburbs of Melbourne. I've already acquired the land title, and I'm now faced with the task of finding a builder who can ensure both quality craftsmanship and timely completion. After conducting research and reading numerous online reviews, it's become apparent that many builders appear pretty similar in terms of their offerings. Therefore, I'm seeking your expertise based on your personal experience. If you could recommend a builder and share your reasons for doing so, it would greatly assist me in making an informed choice. Thanks.
