It may seem pedantic now but when you move in you will regret not pursuing it. We have already had the tiler back to our place to replace 5 tiles in the main floor and two in the ensuite and now there is one more tile that needs to be replaced as he cut it too short so the silicone looks cr@p. We could give in and say don't worry about it but it's in the powder room and just screams at us when we look at it so it's going to be replaced. It's not our problem - it's the builder's and they need to fix it. We have given in on the window sill in the family room which looks like it is cut too short but it is in fact the architrave that is not straight and as that is a huge job to fix we will leave it. Stick to your guns!! For info on our build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=43093 Built the McLaren by Dechellis - slab down 22 Feb - handover 30 Aug 2011 - and gardens finished 9 Dec 2012!! Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 65Jan 10, 2012 6:24 pm Thank's for that,l do need to focus more on what l am paying and to be happy with the end result, and not regret l didn't stand my ground.The builder is such a gentle person( very honest) hard to be forceful.Normally l am strong and get what l pay for,will need to get ME back.Good on you for making Builder fix your beautiful tiles Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 66Jan 14, 2012 2:31 pm Hi Pattycake, Just came for a look at yours, LOVE your plan.....would love to have an acre block! Great to see progress for you guys after the false start with driveway and am loving your mood boards and inspiration...what program did you do your mood board in? I really need to build a few more houses just so I can decorate with all the different styles I like Looking forward to watching your build come together Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 67Jan 14, 2012 5:18 pm Hi JLD, l think l used olioboard,there are other programs,some use powerpoint. let's hope our builds run smoothly,what style do you think your home will be,l am thinking modern/french provincial if l can pull it altogether. Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 68Jan 14, 2012 5:40 pm Hey Pattycake, Love your plan, your verandahs are gorgeous. Fight for your windows, you are paying huge amount of money for them.You really deserve to have it how you want it, you are definitely not being spoilt, requesting what you want. You go girl Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 69Jan 16, 2012 7:42 pm Thanks gogo56 Yes i'm going to fight,if they can't modify the windows so l can have blinds recessed,then they will go.Update have 3/4 of a roof,hope tomorrow will be a colourbond moment Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 70Jan 17, 2012 8:21 am pattycake4 Hi JLD, l think l used olioboard,there are other programs,some use powerpoint. let's hope our builds run smoothly,what style do you think your home will be,l am thinking modern/french provincial if l can pull it altogether. How exciting nearly a roof! Ours doesn't start til tomorrow and is tiles so will take a few days. Love Love French Provincial but we've decided to go Coastal/Hamptons style, looking for a relaxed feel to the house but pulled together if that makes sense Thanks for the heads up re the mood boards Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] Window outcome 71Jan 18, 2012 6:35 pm Ok short story windows have to have the support,where l live it gets very windy,if l have the three panes they will still need that support,instead of one support there will be two.l have decided to leave as is.On a much HAPPIER note l have had my COLOURBOND MOMENT : same colour as V's(BUSHLAND) hope to get pics tomorrow. Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] pics page 3 72Jan 18, 2012 6:39 pm Oh I like the two but understand why you didn't want them. Very exciting about your roof, look forward to seeing it Re: Pattycake's PA [fortified village] Window saga 73Jan 18, 2012 6:46 pm Hey JLD l like them better, the two do look ok,DD prefers them.
