Thanks Aaron, living room & tiling looks good, I will give him a call in the morning, how long did it take to do, the quotes I have say 8 days, but that will turn into 2 weeks, all the glass splash backs will be fitted before handover, the carpets are organised, we deciding on which blind compa...
We had 100 square metres of tiling done plus the subway tiles on the splashback, and that took 1 guy 5 days. He wasn't ...

Finished house is looking good. Well the parts that are finished. The upstairs will be left for a while and we'll concentrate on finishing downstairs. I don't have many photos but here's a link to our living area https://www.facebook.com/776550802436488/photos/a.776552039103031.1073741828.7765508024...

Back to your tiling cost, what sort of tiles have you got? We had 600 x 600 rectified laid throughout all living areas. There was no screed done so just laid on the slab. Our tiler did it for $30/square metre plus adhesive which was about $6 / square metre.

Hi Dandy We built a house that's pretty similar to yours. Sort of a cross between the Geneva and Renato (neither of which are on the Ben Trager website). The main difference with ours is that the house is flipped and we have the alfresco rotated 90 degrees to yours. Our slab down was at the end of M...

Good luck at your PCI, who are you building through? Thanks. We are building with Ben Trager as well so have been quietly lurking for a while. I'll stop hi-jacking your thread though. Your house looks great so far. And just for your info, we had slab down at end of may so has taken 10 months to get...

Thanks for that. That is more than what I was expecting (but then again, everything is more than I'm expecting!). We have 600 x 600 tiles through our living area (110sqm) at about $70/sqm laid, plus about 140sqm of carpet at about $50sqm laid which I guess is close to your $15k budget as well. Then ...

Hi Archetto We're looking at getting bamboo for our steps as well but haven't worked out what the cost will be. What is the approximate cost for nosing, risers and treads? We're also getting a fright as to how much it's going to cost to paint and carpet the rest of the place :/

Also has anyone gone down the polished concrete route? We looked into getting polished concrete, but once we found out that all the polishing had to be done post hand over, this put us off. The thought of all that concrete dust flying everywhere and settling in all the cabinetry, walls, ceiling :( ...
