Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 1442Aug 10, 2016 6:16 pm Oh no, think I've picked up an error, next to the garage where the corner is isn't rendered and is supposed to be moonshadow according to display! They've done it in ironstone so on one side of my door would be ironstone and on the sitting room side would be moonshadow lol.

Come render time, can you ask if they can render that part if your not happy? Is this allowed?

I thought your ones looked great! Maybe being darker brick and lighter grout any discrepancies stand out more?? Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 1454Aug 10, 2016 7:50 pm kylz4 Really!! I thought your ones looked great! Maybe being darker brick and lighter grout any discrepancies stand out more?? Correct, and since our bricks are glazed, any chipping will show the internal clay colour.... Plus our bricks need to be perfectly square otherwise the darker colour will show more of the defects. @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 1455Aug 10, 2016 7:52 pm Kylz, try taking this kind of shot to see if the bricks alignment.
