If i could have afforded it id of vinyl planked all the way. Our selections lady recommended vinyl plank in the theatre too but i wanted a huge plush carpet. Very good decision...I assume the selection lady doesn't know much about acoustic characters...A carpet is much better option than any hard flooring in the theatre room..lot of thread on whirlpool in relation to this... Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 43Jun 28, 2016 11:36 am We will be using ours as more of a multi purpose room for hubby and i to use in an evening, visitors to stay in etc as well as the occasional movie. Our kids rarely chhose to watch a film with us these days as two are older and as they are varying ages they all argue over which film to watch. We considered not having one at all but realised a spare room and a separate privte lounge for hubby and i would be nice. Even considering a pool table.

Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 48Jun 28, 2016 3:33 pm Other good news is, the builder said if we are able to start by mid July, we should be in by Christmas Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 49Jun 28, 2016 3:39 pm vonsta76 The monument will be sweet paired up with the windspray! Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens Gold Coast viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81406 Thanks Von...I thought a lot about the Fascia colour (Shale grey is bit lighter than windspray) but convinced myself that the Fascia is under the gutter and will look darker and roof will look lighter in colour (brightness) so the Fascia and roof should look the same with a darker line (gutter) in-between... not sure I am visualizing it right Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 50Jun 28, 2016 3:46 pm We should have very similar time lines!

GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 55Jun 29, 2016 1:25 pm I nearly chose the inline white satin tiles but my partner didnt like them and I couldnt find a feature that would go nice with them.

GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 The door will be heavy to operate if not pivoted, so I don't have a choice because I want a 1200 * 2340 entrance door.. I am guessing it is going to cost me 2 - 3k. I will let you know when I get the quote back Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 57Jun 29, 2016 3:16 pm Whats the difference between pivot and regular? My door is that size but they never mentioned pivot? Re: RegVic's first build - Custom plan - Local builder 58Jun 29, 2016 3:21 pm townsvillebuyer Whats the difference between pivot and regular? My door is that size but they never mentioned pivot? The pivot system is like swinging doors that is easy to operate and the standard door is hinged... https://www.google.com.au/search?q=pivo ... uZNELVM%3A If it is a big door like mine, it still can be hinged (need extra hinges) but will be heavy to operate...
