Very happy for you, it's turned out beautifully!! Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 71Apr 08, 2011 3:03 pm Superclean aint so super but i had very low expectations anyway from others comments. We have a few more issues to be resolved after key handover still (new mirror, new shower screen, few minor painting touch ups & two new tap backing plates) but apart from that i'm very happy that its all over!! Tam Builder: Gen1 Homes Design: Custom Strata Location: WA Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 74Apr 09, 2011 9:40 pm Thanks cc101!, the shower screen was meant to be semiframeless but one of the panels had a big safety bar through it which shouldn't so they replaced the panel but then that panel was all frameless and it looks odd now because it's not consistent with the rest so I'm waiting on another one and it was going to take 10 days so we decided to continue with key handover and have it installed later. As for the mirror it was too short so I'm waiting on a replacement. Hopefully both should be done this week. Tam Builder: Gen1 Homes Design: Custom Strata Location: WA Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 75Apr 11, 2011 12:38 am hi tamallen / lenny13 do u know if mitering to tiling is standard or do we have to pay extra for that. i noticed on forum that with most of the builders it is standard. Any idea - did u opt for mitering or did u not bother or was that already included. Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 78Apr 11, 2011 1:39 pm Its bascially when they cut the tile (miter) so that you cannot see any ugly edges... otherwise you can get a tile which is glazed on the edges but the glaze tends to just fall after a while. If they have a decent tiler it will be mitered - i believe it is standard. Tam Builder: Gen1 Homes Design: Custom Strata Location: WA Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 79Apr 11, 2011 1:42 pm For those painting themselves totally recommend Taubmans water based sealer & duluxe two in one paint makes painting sooooo much easier! Tam Builder: Gen1 Homes Design: Custom Strata Location: WA Re: RedInk Homes - Custom 5000 in WA 80Apr 11, 2011 4:30 pm Thanks CC, I don't recall being charged anything extra like that for the tiles. We are meeting the tiler on site before they start so I am going to ask if that's standard procedure, we upgraded to porcelin throughout the house so I would like it to be done perfectly. How's it all going tamallen?
