I'd be interested to see what the tiles look like once they're laid, did you have any probs finding a tiler to do the tiling? If you get the chance it would be nice to see pics of the tiles laid Re: Who is building with Beechwood 98Feb 24, 2011 3:02 pm Kathy, i called them yesty and should be starting next week. heres hoping. No we went tiles on the verandah. we will have the same kinda tile from the verandah, through the house through to the alfresco. Did you go pebblecrete on the verandah? we are going white, black, and greys through the house (with red kitchen splashback) with bits of red around the living rooms, So although we havent chosen our internal tiles we will be going with a 600x600 whitish grey tiles. Have you got anymore pics from today? did today go smoothly? how many weeks from when they started on site did it take? When i spoke to beechwood yesty the lady who i always talk to that they will make up for time whilst on site so im hoping that means they will complete sooner than the 23weeks (unless we have wet weather) Our Acreage Build The Lakeview Lodge - Beechwood Homes 01/04/10 YES 2010 - Deposit paid 23/09 - PCI CANCELLED 28/09 - PCI - will it happen.-18 months later 07/10/11 - ITS OURS..WOOHOO Re: Who is building with Beechwood 99Feb 24, 2011 3:17 pm Hi all Just Starting - Congrats on your settlement.....hope it all went smoothly.

Although I have been in email war asking for commencement and they cant give me a date but we are 15 days into the contract so another 13 days to start.....but they advised benching has been done so my hubby is going to check our block this afternoon hopefully they done it and its a start....next is the piers.....god hope they dont find rock or anything else that may cost more $$$..... Springtime - hi, how long from benching till the slab was laid? cant wait for ours to be laid.....this will feel like we are moving and not stationary.
