Looking forward to following along too Thanks Tribe, your render looks incredible I cannot wait for this batten wall, oh my word I seriously dream about, in a non creepy way haha. This build has been a long time coming and living with our in laws has taken it's toll on me. After reading bits and pieces of your thread I know your plan was to always render but did you not like the grey stone? I don't particularly like it but I want a dark brick and it's really all GJ offer without upgrading an even then there wasn't much to upgrade to, but I love the blue rio so hoping that upgrade doesn't cost me the earth or I'll be stuck with greystone Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner Northern NSW 78Jun 18, 2016 8:57 pm Thank you. I went to the new Metricon displays at coomera retreat, here is the ensuite battening Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ I got busted touching it like some weirdo but meh I don't care it's soooooooo freakin pretty . It's also in a McCarthy home at Hope island between the sitting and family room, it seriously make a statement. Yours will be beautiful. I hope the price is good for the blue rio, we had natural mortar with ours and they just looked rubbish. My neighbour has the same bricks but with off white mortar and his look sharp. That could be a option if the blue rio are too pricey?? Off white mortar to grey stone. Re: Charlibear's Build with GJ Gardner Northern NSW 79Jun 18, 2016 9:00 pm Tribe7 Thank you.

You should have seen me at the display at Warner, North Brisbane... I was stroking the the battening for a good 10 mins I think 4 couple walked past while I was stroking it, I couldn't care less it was pure love haha. I think we have off white mortar grey sand... Or was it natural mortar grey sand... Hmm I can't remember... We could choose from grey sand or natural sand I think with what ever mortar or it was natural or off white or crisp white mortar was an upgrade so we choose the one with the grey sand... I'll have to try and remember what colour the mortar is. GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense.
