Tilers worked later than most trades so I managed to get in after work a few times. How is your place going? Re: Duke's Double - Cabinets & Tiling 343Apr 17, 2015 11:22 am Oh bummer, hopefully you will be in soon - I think they must leave a key somewhere??? I've been looking but so far no luck. We reached lock up early last week & builder advised it would 8-9weeks until PCI and therefore no longer than 11 weeks to PC. So we are looking at early June, then flooring install (timber) will take us to end of June . But like you have experienced, there are days when nothing happens. Painting happened this week and cabinets due next week. Our slab went down late June last year, but approval was in Feb . So similar timeline to yours I think - always good to know!! I'm sure once we are all in our homes, the daily frustrations will be a distant memory. Re: Duke's Double - Cabinets & Tiling 344Apr 22, 2015 10:31 pm Well things are progressing, nothing too exciting though. Garage concrete has been poured and external painting has been progressed. Still waiting on the contrast colour at the front to see what the full facade will look like. Front door got stained today and sidelight glazing installed. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Hopefully things will speed up soon, trying to get our alfresco paving moved to the front as a path so we can put liquid limestone out the back. Have changed our front balustrade from satin finish to mirror finish at the manufacturers recommendation, they say less chance if staining/corrosion.

Thanks AKB. I'm guessing about 2-3 weeks for PCI and hopefully keys in a month. Will get a new facade shot with garage door down and painting finished in a couple of weeks Re: Duke's Double - Almost there 356May 17, 2015 10:00 pm Looking fantastic Duke!
