Looking good, thanks for the pictures Re: 1st time build with New Generation Homes 108Aug 02, 2013 11:57 pm Now at lock up. Doors are on and locked. Had a call from the company supplying the tiles. The tile selected for the floor in the bathrooms and laundry is now unavailable, which I am happy about because I was started to dislike it. I have now gone for a greyer tile Re: 1st time build with New Generation Homes 109Aug 03, 2013 8:43 am Gotta love it when things work in your favour!

Whats happening with the 3 holes in the kitchen, 2 in the wall and 1 in the cornice near where the rangehood would go I would imagine? Re: 1st time build with New Generation Homes 113Aug 11, 2013 4:49 pm Thanks Acey, I am really happy that I put the laundry cupboard and sink in. It was going to be a 'I'll do it later' job, but worth the money. The holes in the wall in the kitchen are due the cabinet makers hitting the electrical wires in the wall. They have to run a new line now Re: 1st time build with New Generation Homes 114Aug 12, 2013 1:11 pm Looking good hj, you're so far ahead of us now its not even funny. The guys in Perth are so slow!

I think the guys down here are very quiet. I talked to one tradie and he was short of cash so he work 5 days straight including Saturday and Sunday.

Has a real beach look about it Re: 1st time build with New Generation Homes 120Aug 19, 2013 11:09 pm That looks pretty. I like seeing something that's bit diff to the norm. Would of been a shock as you get so used to see the boring unpainted facade.
