Who would have thought getting a plain white bench would be so hard ( their Corian 'upgrade' came back at $11000! & its acrylic?!)

You have given hope Dee  Good luck with the stone issue, so frustrating when there is a simple solution and they budge.

I'm just wondering do I act dumb and not mention it, or say something and get stung with more money? lol Follow our HGWA build in Baldivis @ viewtopic.php?t=83352&f=31&p=1604334#p1604334 Follow our HGWA build in Baldivis @ https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=83352&f=31&p=1604334#p1604334 Re: B & D's First build with HGWA 90Sep 13, 2016 9:35 am It does tell you whether your mirrors are frameless or framed on your addenda. We paid extra for frameless in the ensuite and had framed in the other two bathrooms. I don't think it was a lot to upgrade to frameless. 09 Apr 2013 766 WA Gold Member Re: B & D's First build with HGWA 91Sep 13, 2016 11:38 am We paid extra for framed ironically! I didn't want the clips holding them on so upgraded to lovely neat frames.
