Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building House in Perth 81Sep 11, 2009 9:38 am We almost went Redink too but the woman at the show home didnt get back to our enquiries once so we thought if she cant be bothered now what will it be like later on! I guess you get one like that in every building company though ... have read lots of good things about Redink from friends though too Re: Building House in Perth 82Sep 11, 2009 11:40 am Trenty: Thanks! My fingers and toes are both crossed! Sounds like we have very similiar taste in colours! Good job its always nice to have assurance as to what you chose...you always question something! We are thinking of going bamboo wooden flooring for all the main areas, and for the bedrooms, home theatre and games we will have carpet (probably a dark charcoal/grey colour but not 100% sure yet) Manda: Thank you! I have checked out your thread and your house is absolutely beautiful! I love the design too. Sillybilly: Yep, there is always one at every builder isnt there! shocking! they lose out on business so quickly not getting back to people. Re: Building House in Perth 83Sep 11, 2009 11:54 am guess what? we have picked bamboo flooring as well, must both have good taste Re: Building House in Perth 84Sep 17, 2009 12:36 am Hey just thought I'd join in since everyone are almost 'neighbours' here.

(doesnt stop me checking the block every second day for action though!) I am going to give them a call first thing Monday morning to see what is going on. Fingers crossed something will happen this month! Most of our neighbours have slabs now I am quite excited because the house we are building is also being built around the corner from our rental so its been good seeing it go up (6 weeks and the roof is already on) and knowing what ours will look like! major stalking going on haha. On another note, was hit yesterday with the recent skimmers - had over $1,000 stolen from my bank account - completely ruined my day anyone else been done??
