I think it looks good all the time! Re: Our home with Ventura (WA) 445Jul 18, 2010 10:48 am Hey Cooper and Zircon, Yeah I think when we were looking at roofs trying to choose what we wanted, whenever we saw a grey/blue one we just assumed it was Shale Grey, instead of realising surfmist looks like that too at times. Ahhh I'm just glad it's the right colour on our roof, imagine if it had of been wrong... what a nightmare!!!

Even our roof which is dark charcoal grey - almost black, looks almost light grey sometimes. I think our next door neighbours have got Ironstone on their roof and from a distance it looks almost exactly the same ours in some angles and others it is definitely a different colour. Seems CB is a bit of a chameleon.

Was good to see it get started over the weekend Yeah camy CRO said approximately 3 weeks from now until lock up. No handover date. Cooper: yeah I'm thinking 3 months from lock up to hand over as that puts us at the time they orginally said the build would take (they said 6-7 months to build - handover in November) but if it goes quicker I'll certainly be happy with that!!!
