Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14881Aug 09, 2019 8:37 am  becks81How is everyone progressing? Hi becks81 - our stairs was installed last week. Our weekly update calls from SS are on Fridays so we're expecting him to say architraves and skirting was done this week when he calls today! I think the garage door may have been installed too. We only get to see the house on the weekends now.. We are probably a week or two away from lockup! How are you travelling along?  10 Dec 2018 80 Loyal Member Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14882Aug 09, 2019 9:07 am  ASJ1981 becks81How is everyone progressing?

That's some beautiful cabinetry. Could you please share some of the details. Colours, materials, and maybe a guideline of the outlay to step this house up a notch. One of the pics you shared was a wall of colour board. What is that and where in your home? Thanks Darren.

One of the pics you shared was a wall of colour board. What is that and where in your home? Thanks Darren. all the cabinetry is Polytec Nataio Walnut from and Dulux Domino in the 2 pac. The wall of Nataio Walnut is in the study and is a built in wardrobe with hanging space in the top half and where you see the shadow lines in the bottom third is drawers. I did this so the room can be used as either a study or a bedroom. I have the joinery built in each room in the same materials it brings the house together aesthetically and also less furniture to buy. There is a lot more to go but am guessing they may do that next week 10 Dec 2018 80 Loyal Member Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14887Aug 09, 2019 3:18 pm Femstar ASJ1981 becks81How is everyone progressing?

TBH I am overwhelmed and scared I will select things in a panic and regret later. Could you please share your beautiful bathroom pics so I can get an idea of what's possible? I am up to selections but I am having a very hard time visualising what they will look like. A few questions: 1. Should I use same tiles / vanity and accent tiles so its cohesive? 2. Or should I change them up a little with each bathroom? Like most home builders at the moment I am leaning more towards white / black / grey colour scheme. Please help!

Amby Have you gone to the display homes? That may help you greatly as they have different things in each bathroom to show you ideas. Personally I tend to use the same in each bathroom but a lot of people do like to mix it up. There is no wrong or right as both ways work. Just make sure you have a common theme with each of them. For example - if you want black taps then use the everywhere. You may wish to use the same vanity but different tiles. Have you been to Canvas Quarter for a look? if you feel a bit lost grab some magazines or google some bathroom pics and take the reference pictures to your Canvas Quarter appointment to help your consultant understand what it is you like and they will also be able to guide you. 28 Jul 2019 66 Loyal Member Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14891Aug 10, 2019 8:20 am Manhattan52 Ambassador36Hi, my first time posting here but long time lurking... so hello I am build an ambassador 36 with Wisdom and nauseatingly have 4 full bathrooms to decide tiles, fittings etc for..

Hi Manhattan52 Thanks for the quick reply. I have been through every one within a 50km radius, lol. None of them feel "quite right". I am thinking of mixing up tiles only, the vanity, benchtop and tapware to be a common theme. Canvas quarter is great but I tend to leave with a totally different opinion the 2 times I have been! Too many options for undecisive me. Thanks! Amby Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14892Aug 10, 2019 9:30 am Better too many options than not enough! Maybe start with your floor tiles and then go from there. I use X Rock range at Di Lorenzo through out the whole house and external pathways as well as the pool coping with just different colours. Just to give you an idea my ground floor is the Grey X Rock as well as outside. My wet floors are the black x rock and the feature in each bathroom is the floor tile runs up one wall. The rest of the walls are white here is the grey tile [img:lf3hoeb3]https://forum.homeone.com.au/u/80394_1565393647.jpeg[/img:lf3hoeb3] 28 Jul 2019 66 Loyal Member Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14893Aug 10, 2019 10:14 am Manhattan52Better too many options than not enough!

Asj sounds like you’re so close to lockup. Manhattan52 your joinery looks amazing! We are getting xrock in our en-suite but I can’t see your picture (just text for me). Femstar, your home is huge! We have had most of the render and external paint and matrix installed, scaffolding has to come down to render one side. Roof, solar panels, parapet capping complete. Lower roofs to come. AC has been roughed in. Electrician and Sentinel will be through next week. 10 Dec 2018 80 Loyal Member Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14895Aug 11, 2019 7:22 am becks81We are behind all of you at this stage but I love hearing about your builds as it gives me something to look forward to.

Electrical started already and will finish this week. Not sure of next stage after that. I know gyprock is planned for end of the month.
