Your house is coming along very nicely. and I like the changes you have made on the floorplan. We are also thinking to build Hartley 341. At the moment still deciding between Hartley vs PD Queenstown. I also see that you have extended your WIR in the master - very nice =) Stephen Williams Landing Stage 10 - Kingwell Neighbourhood Re: DFH Hartley 341 in SE burbs 48Sep 06, 2011 8:08 pm Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ front door & skirting done! @FND - we loved the hartley for the homely feel.

Bit iffy on the paint finishing...there seems to be cracks along some walls and fairly rough finishes where the skirting meets the wall .. anyone know if DFH has 3 coats as standard and if they were happy with the painting?

In the right light all looks good but in the wrong light it can look terrible. You would have different painters to us so maybe ok. A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

SS is on holidays so i haven't been able to pin him down. Checked our contract, it says 2 coats. I might just raise it with the SS and see what he says.

Painting was not as bad as I first thought. just some touch up jobs they need to do. PCI will be in Melbourne cup week so hopefully in by end of November. Tilers start work today although i only have the wet areas that needs tiling, the rest is carpet and timber floor.

So far the plumber done his job and downpipes attached to the aggi drains. I'm guessing the SS has been through the house, there's blue sticky notes everywhere in the house which i presume to be faults with the finish that the tradies needs to fix. overall, 8/10 for the build (thus far) - minus one for less then perfect jobs on the finishes (saying that i have no idea what's good and what's unrealistic) and minus one for the lack of communication on the process/bad color consultation.
