We've had to change a couple of items for a different reasons. The laminate benchtop which in only in the pantry and laundry had to be changes as it was discontinued. This was fairly easy as I had heaps of samples here and the one we chose was very similar in colour tone, Laminex New Ash Dust. Then I had an email about the basins in the bathroom as there was a supplier issue Originally we had this one, the mid range upgrade Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ But we had two different ones to change to in addition to the standard one, (at no extra cost) so we went for this one which we love much more than the original one we chose... http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p460/lisimmo/colours/10756f64.jpg The brickies did heaps of work today, I didn't get a photo though, just realised we are having flush joints which will look nice with these bricks.

Pics! 87Sep 11, 2013 6:04 pm booooo :/ the top pic is our basin too - hope they are restocked by the time we need ours...don't mind the square set but looks very shallow which no doubt means kids and hubby will make more mess than usual.... Re: Meowsy's Montrose- Roof on, bricks delivered. Pics! 88Sep 11, 2013 7:20 pm Claire, there was another option that was really similar to the original one, so don't despair if you do have to reselect, there was this one too http://www.caroma.com.au/bathrooms/basi ... nity-basin. I took a couple of pics of the bricks, they seem to be powering along! These were taken with a flash at dusk.

Claire & Meowsy - I just got the call today to say that the Valentino is no longer available also. We were offered the one here that Meowsy has got a link too.
