None of my stuff will work at the new house either. Current house is lots of wood furniture and country type feel. Cant afford new furniture though so it's just going to have to look strange for a while. I'm started packing this week. :| On the topic of giving away and selling stuff, does anyone kn...

Hello again! So after our Huxley Homes contract disaster our second choice was Metricon! We will be signing contracts with them next week. Does anyone have any helpful hints on contract negotiations or is there anything anyone out there feels we should know before signing a contract with Metricon? I...

Metricon in Sydney have a little tile studio in Bella Vista now and unfortunately you don't have the range that you have at Di Lorenzo. I'm sure they have lots of disappointed customers! I had a quick look when they were just opened and they have lots of standard coloured tiles but nowhere near as m...

Wow $675,000 is very reasonable considering you are getting the house and land. I wonder how old the home is? We are spending very close to that on our Metricon build and that doesn't even include any land...or landscaping...or demolition... [emoji15] Welcome to our version of the Metricon Henderson...

If it's a timber sliding door you can get a silver matt finish handle but if it's aluminium the choice in Sydney is white or black powder coat in one very basic style only. I really wanted a different style that I saw in the display home, argued the point for months and got no where with M. Welcome ...

Did anyone ask for no quads to be put on with timber laminate? I was willing to pay extra but she said they won't do it. [emoji53] Are quads the same as scotia? If so, yes I asked for these to be removed. The cost was $2000 in Sydney. Welcome to our new Metricon Henderson https://forum.homeone.com....

Go to the FB page and message them ? Yes that's a great idea, I thought I'd give the site supervisor a chance to respond but if I don't hear anything back that will be my next course of action as the office is closed down also with no emergency contact number available. Luckily the main water suppl...

Hi I have whisper white throughout a new build at the moment. It is a lovely subtle colour by the way and throws beautiful shadows. My question is I want to do a feature wall in the bedroom - looking at dulux Island Sea - will that completely overpower the Whisper? Should I use half and half? Thank...
I just looked at pictures of Dulux Island Sea. It's a bold colour but I love that it's not your standard type of colour...
