Hello,
ReplyDeleteLooks quite nice, good the see the progress. CSA advised in 2-3 weeks time setttlement is due.
Read you post on H1 that you are doing your own trenching, I am also thinking doing it on my own. Dial Telstra not much helpful to know what needs to be done for DIY solution. Can you please let me know.

Ismail
Looks great! Isn't it amazing how it starts to look like a real finished house once they do all the finishing touches :)
ReplyDeleteHey Ismail, you can dig the trench yourself. It has to be a minimum of 30cm deep, just be aware of the water pipe and gas pipes while you're digging. Gas pipe should have some yellow plastic tape above it to warn you that you are digging near it. You can buy some 20mm PVC conduit from bunnings. You'll need to know where the phone will come into your block... Try searching on the forum for some better instructions! I'm really bad at explaining things lol
