Seems the further along this process we get, the more bombs are dropped on us! viewtopic.php?t=83651 Building a modified Sheridan 35 We did the basic paint. I dislike the flat paint. A small bump on the wall and it comes off (maybe paint prep and not paint itself) and it shows marks everywhere. The patch painting they did to fix up issues can be seen from the sides but not front on - so meets standards. Not sure if the two coat would be better but if I had my time again I would have done low sheen on the walls at least. Definitely worth getting 3-coat system. Will post pictures tomorrow after our walk through.

Can't wait to see your kitchen finished as those are the colours im looking at doing this time. I got the sample of the natural oak and it matches my current floor (parador trendtime 6 oak castell limed) exactly. Ill have to post a photo.. it seriously looks exactly the same. I love my floor and am seriously considering using it again with this build. Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 15219Jun 23, 2016 6:12 pm rogy Nice progress mrrrrt! Paging all brickies please call Adam M so he could continue on our bricks, 12 weeks to date and did not even finish the ground floor ;-( , we'll just hope we could still move in before Christmas..... That sucks Rogy. I'm sure it won't make you feel better to know I'm almost at week 20. And only half my bricks done. No brickie for the past month.

My friend around the corner build a Wentworth 35 in 19 weeks. We are about to build again.. a Fairmont 38 this time so hopefully our build will be just as quick this time. the stair balustrades? There is nothing special about these and I imagine literally every stair installer will be able to do this. 1 6690 The two 15mm holes are obviously not compliant. The Dept of Fair Trading would love to see this one! Do the gutters pool water after it stops raining? Although it's… 4 7822 Thanks for your reply. I will just wait and see I guess.
