Bathroom - what tiles around bath
Building A New House

Jul 04, 2019 4:27 pm
Hi everyone, I was just wondering if I could get some feedback about bathroom tiles. Is it normal for the tiles that go up the side and top of a built-in bathtub to be the same as the floor tiles, or the wall tiles? Interested to see what the consensus is. Thanks!

Hi everyone, we have our colour selection meeting tomorrow. I was wondering if we are expected to pick bathroom and splashback tiles at this appointment? And if so do they have other tiles there other than what is the standard range? Interested to hear anyone's experience. Also is it normal to have ...

Hi everyone, hope your homes are all going well. I was just wondering if anyone had experience with choosing their kitchen and bathroom cupboards outside of the standard range given in their colour packs? I want to upgrade to a wood veneer with a textured finish that I saw at the laminex display cen...

Hi Firstylers, me again wanting to pick your brains! Just going through the building contract and was wondering if it's worth the bother to ask them to change some of the terms of the contract? Not sure if anyone has had any luck in changing anything in the contract, say for example the offer of $1...

OK so now I know to not ask for shaker doors wow that's a big cost! Thanks so much this has been so helpful. What was your experience with Carpet House? I'm looking to get a laminate wood flooring but thinking that will sting for upgrade costs as well.

Thanks so much Brendan, I wanted Cotton Sheets too so that's good to know it's going to have a cost. That's a good idea to upgrade the taps etc at a later date. Can I ask what you did for your kitchen and bathroom cabinets?

HI everyone, Hope your builds and houses are all going well. I'm just going through my fixture choices with the document we were given of all the inclusions and our available choices and I am looking for some advice on going outside of these choices. In regards to picking the taps and bath tub does ...

Hi everyone, We are at the tender variations stage and haven't signed off on them just yet. I know that all electricals, interior choices get added later but when do we need to check things like manhole placement, outdoor taps, fridge water taps, door directions, gas points, fridge recess size etc? ...

Hi everyone, This thread has been so helpful. We are building our first home with Firstyle, literally just signed the tender and paid the $15k on the weekend. We are getting a H&L package (the Willow which I've been told is a custom plan for a narrow block). Sat down and went through the changes...
