The recess and hob wall in the showers are great ideas! No unsightly shower caddy required

Kitchen splashback is awesome. I need to come up with an idea for my splashback post handover and I think I might steal yours haha!

Thankyou!

These are far from our first choice as well
Our original ones just looked horrid when everything was in place so we managed to change them

glad we did it with the dark grout too

Hey Jess. Your house looks great! We are also building with hgwa! We have just received the final documents. Do you remember roughly how long it was from final documents until beginning of construction? I'm getting so excited and impatient!
Good luck with the rest of the build! Looking forward to seeing more photos as you go!

Hey

I don't really remember haha
Our first documents were the first week of December 16
Pre start was the 13 December
Slab went down on the 1st March

Hope that helps a bit

Where abouts are you building? Would love to see your plan

Oh wow that's pretty quick! Hopefully ours is similar!
We're building in Bushmead, the new suburb near the Perth hills.
Here is a copy of our plan, it's the monza design with a few changes.

wow - love your house. We recently saw a display homes with black doors and black frames around the sliding doors and I was really surprised how much I loved the look. If someone had said black doors, my initial thought would be why - but now having seen them in a house setting, it looked so sophisticated and dramatic.

Thanks! It was my partners idea, I was really against it at first
I then saw a Lady on Insta with them and loved them!

Only downside is how the paint them

I can't wait to see these doors finished!

Just a heads up though, I took a building inspector to our PCI last week and one of the most common things he noticed was how thin the paint was applied on all the doors and frames, make sure they don't do it to yours

The doors have been painted twice now and definitely still need another coat at lest so fingers crossed

Everything is completed.
An independent inspector went out today, should get the report back on Monday and PCI will hopefully be booked next week (or so we're told)
Working on keys around the 17th/18th
