Starting to get quotes and have decided on blnds - venetians for bedrooms, roller blinds for living and theatre sliding doors and laundry and a curtain for our bedroom. Flooring is carpet in bedrooms and am considering commercial grade vinyl planking for the rest of the house.... It actually really surprised me!! The word vinyl put me off thought it would look tacky but it looks amazing and I want something very low/ no maintenance and hard wearing so vinyl plank is perfect and it's about 3k cheaper than the bamboo I was thinking of installing! Lighting we want down lights but need to source an electrian to get a quote. Quotes done for glass pool fencing, air con, paint and alfresco decking. So just need a quote for paving and bull nosing around the pool Building The Oceanic with Nautilus Upgrades by Dale Alcock Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=45433&p=687574#p687574 KEYS! 28.9.11 Re: Excited to Build: Building with DAH (We have walls!) 107May 13, 2011 11:44 am hey excited - what brand of vinyl plank are you thinking about installing - I have FINALLY decided on wide board marri - so maybe I shouldn't be asking you this question...

They weren't there but it looks like there is only 3 small walls to go and bricking will be finished! Guess I'm drinking a carton of beer tonight! Haha brickies got me a good one, I saw a tin of paint with the lid off and thought why do they have paint on site... Looked in and the was a huge fake spider! I nearly peed my pants! They must have done it as a joke to someone and they got me too!! Have some pics of the walls will post when little one goes to bed.

I will be keeping a very close eye on them! Your build is definately ahead of mine, so I am officially in 3rd place (or last!!!! ) lol We went up with beers today for the brickie, so hopefully that will keep things moving. We are really impressed with what he is doing! We have 3 external walls and some internal walls completed so just praying it keeps going this well. Met the SS too and he was fab! Anyway, hopefully all these pool probs can be put behind you and you can concentrate on your lovely new house - it looks so similar to mine at the back and you have the same bricks - its uncanny. Can I ask who you got your quote off for the glass fencing and what $$$$ it is? We need to organise this, but hubby away and I have been too busy doing 'stuff'!!! When hubby back I will put pics up and you can see how alike the houses look! So, I hope it keeps going at this speed for you and that the problems are resolved soon Pops xxx Re: Excited to Build: Building with DAH (We have walls!) 112May 14, 2011 9:27 pm You have good taste Pops!! Ha ha We got fully frameless glass fencing at $500 pm it was a trade show price though when the Perth Home Show was on at the Convention Centre, havent been able to find anything close to that good a price since Im afraid The only other thing we considered was installing it ourself which is hugely cheaper but we are tight on time.

You can see the colours in the pic above. Thanks, I just love that border tile!! Hubby doesnt care what I pick so am lucky there, he might feel different once its up though! haha Building The Oceanic with Nautilus Upgrades by Dale Alcock Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=45433&p=687574#p687574 KEYS! 28.9.11 Re: Excited to Build: Building with DAH (We have walls!) 118May 20, 2011 12:49 pm I think 2 tones work - if could choose again I would go 2 tones. my interior designer friend, says 2 tone works best is the top cupboard blends in with the splash back and the bottom cuboards blend with the benchtop.... I think the separation of colour makes the room larger. I wasn't able to pick a 2nd colour that I wanted, so I bailed and just went all white. If I did it again I would make my top cupboard a coffee colour to match the tile. I don't know is this helps!!! Are you having that green as a splash back? What type of tile is it?

And then the lower cupboards dark, to create contrast. REALLY WISH I HAD OF SEEN THIS KITCHEN BEFORE I MADE MY SELECTIONS.....hmmmm..... maybe I will change. lol. look what you have started!!!
