Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 105Sep 15, 2014 8:51 pm Bingo18 No that's the first time we've met face to face, but have spoken a few times over the phone. Anytime we want to talk to our SS we just email our CC and ask if she can call us and she always does within 24 hours. Oh that sounds really good. We haven't been given that option Anyways glad things are going well for you Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 106Sep 17, 2014 8:25 pm Went out to the house today and the tiling is looking great!

I love the pot drawers and the overall white colour! Can I ask what made you go with white when you've got kids? I think I'm going to choose white cupboards too but everyone is telling me not too because we have kids??? Aaaahhhh, all the choices are making it so hard! Can't wait to see what your kitchen looks like with floor tiles done. How exciting, you'll be cooking in your new kitchen in no time!

Can't wait to see what your kitchen looks like with floor tiles done. How exciting, you'll be cooking in your new kitchen in no time! It was an easy choice to go with the white cupboards...my sister and Mum both have them and they actually don't show up a lot marks. Plus with the sheen finish they are super easy to wipe clean. Also our old house and the rental we are in now both have darker cupboards and they are a nightmare to keep clean! Every bit of dirt, dust, fingerprints show up they drive me insane!! Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 111Sep 18, 2014 5:06 pm Bingo18 Wow a lot has happened this week! All the cupboards are in, the stone bench tops are in and the tiler has started!

If you don't mind me asking what was the cost to upgrade to drawers The pot drawers were really expensive - $2580!! It's one of the upgrades that we went back and forth on whether to get and in the end decided to go for it! I really wanted them and thankfully our budget (and hubby!) allowed it! Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 113Sep 19, 2014 8:45 am Wowzer, that's some expensive pot drawers! But if you have the money get what you want, or you will regret it! I'm still stalking the thread for when the render paint goes on Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - TILING STARTED! 114Sep 19, 2014 9:33 am bletchleybuild Wowzer, that's some expensive pot drawers!

Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - PAINTING STARTED 115Sep 19, 2014 9:52 pm Went to the house today and the tiles in the wet areas are complete. I'm really happy with how they turned out.

I love the render and the frontage you've chosen - I'm so glad I've chosen the same one as it's exactly the look I'm wanting. Our render will be greyish Thanks for letting me know about the cupboards and white sheen finish. I'll probably just go with white cupboards myself. We are loving in my husbands work house which has horrible apricot cupboards and they are awful to keep clean Love your overhead cupboards too! I hope everything keeps powering along for you Re: Celebration Homes - Brookleigh Estate - PAINTING STARTED 119Sep 22, 2014 12:50 pm mr singh hi bingo 18 external colours looking fantastic as well so did they say when is hand over date Thanks mr singh! Not sure of handover date, but our PCI has now been reschedule to Monday 20th October, then they say allow 10 days for any fixes and finance etc. So we are hopeful we'll have keys by the end of October.
