Re: Building with Dechellis in 2010 173Apr 25, 2010 9:19 pm dummyspit Your house is looking great. Not much longer and your place will be finished. I am also building with Dechellis and am at a very similar stage to you. I've found the build to be very easy with them. Thanks ! Its been really smooth sailing so far. And so quick, I'm waiting for everything to come to a grinding halt ? In the next 3 months they have to do second fix carpentry and electrical, tiling, front render, painting and the last bit of plumbing. Not having built before I'm not sure how long all of that should take, but 3 months seems a lot of time. Maybe I shouldn't jinx it What are you building ? Do you have a thread ? A quick update for those who have contributed to my recent dilemmas.....flooded gum 189mm won the day; the crystal chalk looks blinding in the kitchen so am now thinking sable luxe unless the colour has changed tone dramatically, and I've started landscaping.....on the puta anyway....whaddyareckon ???

Love the landscaoubg ideas Re: Building with Dechellis in 2010 175Apr 27, 2010 1:42 pm Hi evelyng Your kitchen looks fantastic - you must be soooo excited I love the Sable Lux stone tops. Its a gorgeous colour. Dechellis used that in one of their display homes and it looks really good. Your landscape design looks great as well. I love the timber decking.

What date have you been given as expected handover? Thanks Sorrento, I'm loving the kitchen !!! We have definitely chosen New Sable Luxe for the bathrooms. The kitchen is still undecided but the Crystal Chalk is just way too white against the cupboards. So, now choosing between Sable Luxe and Chinchilla Thanks for the feedback on the landscaping. I met a landscaper on site today to give us some paving quotes, and he is also going to quote on doing the whole job. In other news the waterproofing guy was there painting nice blue stuff around the showers today So tiling must be coming soon I haven't been advised on any change in handover date, so I think its still the start of August. And lastly, here is my updated Nearmap collage: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Building with Dechellis in 2010 177Apr 27, 2010 3:48 pm YAY sounds all exciting.
