Browse Forums General Discussion Surfmist render, what are your thoughts? 41Feb 26, 2012 11:08 am Tossing up our options on what to do. The 2 tone is on our minds. We are going to seek some compo from the builders as this has changed everything, eg concrete color my landscape choices etc etc. This is a major stuff up Builders don't take ph calls on weekends but Monday morn should be interesting. Ps render was done Saturday morning Re: Surfmist render, what are your thoughts? 42Feb 26, 2012 3:14 pm That's awful - what a dilemma for you both. At the risk of sounding naive & probably a bit stupid, can't they remove the render & redo it to what was specified in the amended plan? After all, it was not your stuff-up - surely the onus is on them to fix it properly, if that's at all possible, rather than you having to compromise to something you don't actually want. You were so looking forward to getting a surfmist render, too. Why builders can't work off the amended plan only so these kinds of mistakes simply can't occur is a bit beyond me. Good luck tomorrow. "Whoever says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain!" Surfmist render, what are your thoughts? 43Feb 27, 2012 2:25 pm All sorted infact SS was brilliant. They said they could change it and explained it to me, was ok with it, then I drove by the house again and I am keeping the western myall, as the colour has settled I have to say it looks striking with the surfmist garage door and front door. So there you go what a merry Go round, it all worked out in the end . Re: Surfmist render, what are your thoughts? 44Feb 27, 2012 2:29 pm Good news ... I was going to say I thought it looked great. Funny how it all works out in the end isn't it but it did give you a few stressful moments .... For info on our build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43093 Built the McLaren by Dechellis - slab down 22 Feb - handover 30 Aug 2011 - and gardens finished 9 Dec 2012!! Re: Surfmist render, what are your thoughts? 45Feb 27, 2012 3:01 pm Glad you worked it out (& how good is it when you find out you have nice builders?). I think the Western Myall looks rather spiffy too. Nothing better than a happy ending. ... that's what she said ... "Whoever says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain!"

Woo Hoo! @serenitynow I quite like a bit of dark render too. Can you please clear something up for me...
