The space was supposed to be 1.00m wide but it is now 930mm. So we have lost a bit somewhere - oh well. Building for the 1st time with M3tricon Site Start was 19th July 07. It's been 2 weeks to Handover for the past 8 weeks. Go figure. Re: WE'RE BACK!!!

Your electricians are moving quite fast, we are also close to hand over stage but still don't have electricity connected yet, have to wait until next week... Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 25Mar 06, 2008 12:08 pm Is that splash back in your kitchen in glass and letting in lights from outside? Wow, that's special! Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 26Mar 06, 2008 5:07 pm Yeah the splashback is a glass window - thought it would be something different - cheers for the compliments
I think the big M are going to hit us with the practical completion invoice soon but there are so many things they still need to fix up I've been delaying the flooring repeatedly as the last thing we need is a mess from the tradies on our new floor - so annoying. The only thing they have managed to do this week is connect the power and put the stove in. Concreters are due Mon/Tue to do driveway/path and outdoor room. so will post more pics then.

Latest Pics... 29Mar 06, 2008 6:59 pm Looks great!!
Can I ask what lights you have in your kitchen areas - I can't really tell by the flash...your downlights look a good size too, how many did you get in total throughout your home? Look forward to more pics - very nice! Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 31Mar 06, 2008 7:42 pm Wow Ricci!
Finally! I love the facade... the doors.. the huge shower (and niche too!)... We also have that window to the kitchen that lets the sun in... but since we had the same kitchen layout as the display home, where they moved the oven a bit to the right, the window will sit on top of the benchtop and we have glass splashback to the side of the oven (so no oil splashes to the window, easier to clean).

As far as the lights in the kitchen are concerned they are just ballasts at the moment as we are putting a multidirectional low voltage in the centre and a pendant slim rectangular chandelier over the sink. Downlights - yeah we have a few I think in total 40... Building for the 1st time with M3tricon Site Start was 19th July 07. It's been 2 weeks to Handover for the past 8 weeks. Go figure. Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 33Mar 06, 2008 9:21 pm brittany pffftt!! I'm going home to have a look from my other computer - so unfair - I love pics If you are viewing from work and using IE (Microsoft Internet Explorer), it's probably the company firewall/proxy/security policy settings that blocks in-page images in IE. It happens to be me at work too. One solution is to use Firefox or Netscape Navigator or other browser. Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 34Mar 09, 2008 7:48 am Fantastic Ricci. I am glad M has got it rolling. Did you get an independent inspector to review the works? What did M charge for the plaster cutouts? they look great with the downlights in. My house is at frame stage and I wonder if its too late to get those plaster cutouts! Did you get them at design stage?
Enjoy your new home. Hope there are no more issues with M. Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 35Mar 12, 2008 5:37 pm Hi,
We had the cutouts put in at design stage. i'll have to check the contract to see what they charged for them - to memory I think it was around $1200 but I could be wrong. Building for the 1st time with M3tricon Site Start was 19th July 07. It's been 2 weeks to Handover for the past 8 weeks. Go figure. great job! 36Mar 12, 2008 5:47 pm i could tell it was a m3trcion house when i first saw the photo - without reading that it was!! it looks really good already!! Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 37Mar 12, 2008 5:55 pm funny you should say that because there are a few M3tricon homes in our area and yet you would never recognise them as M3tricon houses, given the way M3tricon markets images of their homes. Building for the 1st time with M3tricon Site Start was 19th July 07. It's been 2 weeks to Handover for the past 8 weeks. Go figure. Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 38Mar 13, 2008 3:09 pm We are now 8 weeks over the contract date and they still haven't finished For the past 2-3 weeks they have only had maybe 3 days worth of work left to do but done nothing. You wonder how they operate.
Driveway/path is being done tomorrow - but that's organised by us. Building for the 1st time with M3tricon Site Start was 19th July 07. It's been 2 weeks to Handover for the past 8 weeks. Go figure. Re: WE'RE BACK!!! Latest Pics... 40Mar 13, 2008 9:10 pm what do you do if your builder does extras in your house because he "thinks" you ordered them and they aren't in your contract.
