We won’t have any cladding or rendering, it will just be brick face. We worked out the brick colour and roof tile colour. Is there anything else to work out at the brickyard? Thanks.

Hi One, to pick mortar color and to match the color of gutter, fascia you may not need to visit brick stores. The wisdom gallery has all the sample colors and the color consultant is very helpful to suggest you color with her samples.

(You May have already answered this previously) And I think no glass in the door is a good choice... Honestly, we just went with what sentinel advised which was 3 on the TV end (one in middle above TV and 2 on the sides) and then 2 in each back corner. We also got 2 speakers in the Alfresco ceiling. Yes it should hopefully be nice and dark in there to watch movies. I’ve seen a business that paints really cool glow in the dark skies on ceilings too which I’d like to have done eventually.

It is an upgrade item from the hand held shower rail in the Manhattan prestige package.

It is an upgrade item from the hand held shower rail in the Manhattan prestige package. It’s ~ $900 You keep the handheld and have a diverter mixer to the ceiling showerhead. You want both, as the ceiling mounted one is bigger but less pressure, kind of more for relaxing showers than washing hair etc. Building Monte Carlo 40- Wisdom homes Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 11274Jun 26, 2018 10:23 pm One MandM+4 Chompy I noticed the HT down lights in the display homes are around the edge in the coffered ceiling with none over the tv.

We installed 90mm switchable downlights (currently on daylight setting) the same size and wattage as the Clipsal ones W provide, as we got the 15 included ones from W. Building Monte Carlo 40- Wisdom homes Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 11275Jun 26, 2018 10:26 pm Hi everyone, Electrical appointment was done before our Kitchen appointment. Therefore, some of the powerpoints are in the wrong place. For example, there is a powerpoint in the kitchen bench that should be moved to the other side because of the sink placement. Would we receive an amended Electrical Plan or do we need to take the initiative and ask our consultant to change it?

Thanks MandM. I actually did email her as soon as we received our kitchen plans. She said this would be addressed when they receive the final plans. So I assume I will be getting an amended plan sometime. Now that we have signed off on everything, is the next step getting final house drawings? I'm assuming this is where we will see it all come together?

Building Monte Carlo 40- Wisdom homes Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 11279Jun 26, 2018 10:37 pm Also, because we modified the kitchen layout (originally U shape), we wanted an island layout instead, I missed putting a wall nib where the end of the kitchen bench will be. Is it too late to ask for it to be included? Right now, it's not a huge drama as I have plans to put up timber decorative panels.
