Got to take a look inside since the ruler was there. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I'm really concerned about the location of the flick mixer. It is supposed to be to the left, a little bit to the right of the end of the recess. With it all the way on the right, I don't see how the shower screen and the flick mixer are going to co-exist very well. Just seems really sloppy and makes me really mad. 1) Why the @#$^$#^ can't they just follow plans? Stupid plumbers 2) Why can't a tradie think for themselves or a tiler for that fact and say.. hey this flick mixer looks to be in a stupid position.. what is the go guys, is this correct? um.. nope doesn't look like it.. wow huh Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The grouting is to be finished today.

The outlet at the top doesn't look to be in the right place (to the left wtf??) and is the only reason I can think tiles aren't done there yet. Floor tiles don't get laid until after the painter is done. Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 13917Apr 06, 2016 12:33 pm bmitchel Met with the driveway guy at the house today to get some ideas.

Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 13918Apr 06, 2016 12:36 pm The tiles look great bmitchel but I think you're right in that last photo, the shower outlet looks way to the left. One thing we've discovered this build is most tradies don't give a damn about whatis right or wrong, they just do whatever!

If he reckons people will be able to get in with shelves there, then I want the shelves in to prove the practicality of this. I don't see it being possible. the stair balustrades?
