    Given where we need to be re. energy efficiency and renovations being an obvious trigger point for energy work, it's a missed opportunity

    He doesn't do efficient buildings. I'm in that line of business and always keep an eye out and he does sweet fup all most of the time. The running costs for some of his houses are astronomical over 40 years.

    No security cameras ever, I value security cameras over large down to the floor glass walls.

    I mean it is nice to see who is at the door, before they see you, which doesn't give one the choice to ignore the person at the door, like the Jehovah Witnesses if walls are glass...

    He is and I'd take as an admission of guilt, and also just for the cameras. If this happened to Joe soap there'd be no changing of glass for free. Especially not from Rationel who don't manufacture their own glass but actually order it in.

    Yeah?

    Just because it meets building regs, it doesn't mean that it can't be done more efficiently.


    You think he'd have a mock up of the furniture and stove in the room rather than decide it later.

    I have to agree with Dermot on that one, position of the stove is just wrong

    Would they not have sat on the sofas/chairs to see how it looked/felt?

    Ah... they did keep the decking. I'm glad.

    Love the window colours! How they relate to the roof (as Dermot said) I have no idea though!

    It's sylvan, not sylvian!!!

    Oh I know. It's a default they can fall back on.

    Building Regs are minimum requirement. I'd expect it to be built in given the NZEB rules coming in and the benefits therein.

    I see they replaced the section of 10 or so off colour slates on the front of the house, they would have wrecked my head staying there.
