Hi Spicegirl, it took 7.5 months in total. Which is pretty good considering the size of the house, delays with weather and hiccups along the way. When does your build start?

How much did your tiles cost you and how long did it take to get them done after handover? Love the colour of your tiles.

Love the colour of your tiles. Tiles we purchased through a friend for $3.5k and labor was free. We love the tiles, after going to national tiles and not being impressed with the quality and thickness of the tile, we decided to go through a friend who got us these amazing tiles.

I'll get some more pics including wet areas! Lol the TV is a 55" it looks tiny in all the space. I even had to purchase a massive coffee table because anything average in size would look out of place. New Build with Henley ( Palace Q1) 455Apr 03, 2017 2:11 pm ![]() Nice! May i know what colour you chose for your walls? Hi YeuG our wall colour is Vanilla Quake half strength and Vivid White on all our timber frames, skirting and staircase to contrast well against the wall colour. Any other white would look too yellow. Re: New Build with Henley ( Palace Q1) 456Apr 04, 2017 8:35 am Hi mclaren77, what system did you go with for aircon? We have evap cooling but its only for upstairs. Wondering if refrigerated cooling is the better solution but its very pricey.

Wondering if refrigerated cooling is the better solution but its very pricey. We haven't installed AC yet. We are exploring our options. But I have to say, double glazed windows are amazing at controlling internal temp. We had no heating for a week during the cold snap last week in Melb and we were ok.

We will have double glazed windows so that's good. And good on you for doing so well with your floor tiles regarding cost and choice.
