Browse Forums Building A New House Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 152Nov 15, 2013 9:58 pm The cabinetry has been installed! It looks fantastic. Love the doors going onto the alfresco. Bet that you cannot wait to have a coffee there. Mistakes are annoying but I am sure they will fix them, wish they would put a bit of thought and planning into it though. In regards to the laundry I think the handle is fine. Might be a problem if the cupboard opens into the broom cupboard. However its a personal decision and I can understand for aesthetic reason why you might want it switched but to be honest I did not even notice till you pointed out. Oh and I love the brick, very subtle but pretty Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 153Nov 15, 2013 10:08 pm Thank you!! I can't wait to see your cabinetry - I'm sure it will be amazing And thats exactly what we will be doing in the alfresco area - coffee in the morning, beautiful glass of wine in the evening haha My hubbie agrees with you - he's not too fussed about the laundry cupboard, and actually I didn't notice it until he pointed it out!! It was only then I started to look at it differently! Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 154Nov 15, 2013 10:16 pm Happy to provide company for that glass of wine or bottle, ha ha. Mind you I am partial to a coffee too I would imagine that the handle is not hard to switch at a later date if it bothers you still. I am currently in negotiations to change our paint colour, not as easy to change later but the builder is being a PITA. Hoping we can get onto ss and he will be more reasonable. Thanks for the update and pics Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 155Nov 16, 2013 4:32 pm Looks wonderful. I agree the alfresco doors are stunning. Cupboards look great. Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 156Nov 20, 2013 12:18 pm Great to see yours is all coming along nicely fairmont_build. It all looks great too.

Everything looks great especially that alfresco! what a beautiful area to relax I didn't notice the laundry at first if anything could you just ask them to lower the broom cupboard handle so it's in line with the other one, maybe that's what's throwing you off Siteworks 8/11 Slabbed 19/11 Our Thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65703 Re: First Home builders with Fairmont Homes 158Dec 02, 2013 8:23 pm Thankyou Lucinda, Tasha and Davelle We are going to leave the handle as is in the laundry, its not to much of a big deal. Just a quick update, not much has happened last week, but the electrician came and put all the power points/lights and switches in etc which is great! The stone benchtop went on in the kitchen, but just looks green at the moment all covered in plastic. Brickie has been slow going having days off all the time but he should be finished by the end of this week. A photo of the entrance to our home all complete minus the render which will be on the 2 pillars, and no stain on the door as yet. Still no sign of any tiles, but supervisor said he is waiting for the brickie to finish as there is not a lot of room on site for other trades at the moment.
