I love the square lights & pendants, did you get them at Tilly's as well? Bought 2 from a local shop (since closed down) and 1 from Tillys, no longer stocked Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - LANDSCAPING, FLOORING & LIGHTS 923Jan 20, 2014 11:38 am Wow been ages since updates this thread, finally getting to finish the house off (we have been slack). Installed handles on our kitchen cupboards, getting blinds in the next 4 weeks and curtains and skirting boards to follow. Once thats done, all that leaves is the backyard!

Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - LANDSCAPING, FLOORING & LIGHTS 930Feb 19, 2014 2:30 pm Wrexter your kitchen is gorgeous! I also love the look of the flooring above. Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - Instaling Skirting! 932Dec 16, 2014 2:08 pm wrexter Pretty happy with the result. Was Quoted over $3000, got it done for $250. This is great for you, but it makes me feel a little dead on the inside! This looks good (if not better than mine) and I paid someone close to $2000 to install skirting throughout the house! How did you do it so cheaply??? I was looking into DIY and found that I would save about $500, so I thought I may as well get a professional to do it. Regret can't help me now!

Thanks PanRaptor, dont regret it too much because it took alot of work and a times i wished i just paid for it to be done. Im very meticulous with these things (it took me 3 months to paint the house). From memory 100m of Lambs Tongue Skirting +5% waste: 39 x 92mm Lambs Tongue MDF @ $6.00 each = $234 Primer & Oil Paint - $40 (Solver) Gap Seal - $10 Putty & Sand Paper - $10 Ok maybe it was more like $300. Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - Instaling Skirting! 935Dec 16, 2014 8:59 pm Love your kitchen . The pendants work really well .we used nuwood skirting tried to mitre corners but to hard .so we used there click system . You have done a really good job . Ps we are still painting after 6 months lol Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - Instaling Skirting! 936Jun 27, 2015 12:21 am Hi Wrexter, could you tell me where you purchased those skirting boards and how much they were please?

They usually do good trade pricing. Only dilemma is picking up 5.4m lengths - they are mighty awkward. Re: WREXTER's BUILD (WA) - Instaling Skirting! 939Jan 03, 2016 12:03 am Yes and Welshpool is a bit far from us too, i think it will be bunnings when the time comes. $12 for 5.4m isn't bad. What profile is that? Lambs tongue? _______________________ KEYYYSSS!! ~ 14/10/15 viewtopic.php?t=72518 Our Build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72518 Joe Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
