Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Clarendon Parkhill 36 in Coomera Retreat. Stairs!! 501Feb 03, 2016 8:16 am 02/02/2016 - Fit out started and electricians back to start locating points and lights. All our internal doors have arrived and work has started on internal fit out. Electricians are also back on site to start the painful task of measuring out locations and finding the cables for all the points and lights. Carpenter spent all day cutting skirting and architraves for each room. By the end of the day he had hung 2 doors to the Guest Room and fitted the Architrave around them. So happy with our doors.. something just a tad different Electricians have located all the light switches and power points. Now just to do all the downlights lol Wiring for our under cabinet lighting Cheers, Paul (& Lisa) Parkhill 36 by ClarendonHomes in Coomera Retreat H1 Build Thread And Blog Building Blogs List - Go Ahead And Add Yours!! Re: Clarendon Parkhill 36 in Coomera Retreat. Fit Out 502Feb 03, 2016 8:31 am Some updated pics with the scaffold all gone... Gas connection has been brought in from the street. Not a lot in our external meter box.. it will all be in the garage lol The duplex on the corner has finally started. We will lose our view over the estate but we will have quite a bit of space between us and them so we should still get our beautiful breezes.

Fit Out 503Feb 04, 2016 11:03 am Hey roo, I went past your place this morning after a trip to masters, gosh it's looking so good the brick work and cladding look so crisp. Agree about the distance between your place and the duplex it's a big gap and the breeze will come through nicely. Love the front door you must paint it a funky colour, what colour will your render be? Agree about your hand railing being dark it will keep your theme flowing nicely. Ours is white and it's okish. Great to see your water proofing is done too, tiling or painting next? Oh your ss was pulling in as I was leaving too Re: Clarendon Parkhill 36 in Coomera Retreat. Fit Out 504Feb 05, 2016 12:27 pm Hey Tribe, The render is going to be same colour as cladding and once finished I am considering getting all the windows tinted in a dark grey / black to add impact. Yeah front door is almost a certain to be going yellow with monument frames around the glass panels. Our SS is "over it" Lmao. Actually... I thinks it's more the case that he's over US!!!! Bahahahahahahaha. Welcome to the real world where not every customer is willing to roll over and play dead.

CABINETS 509Feb 10, 2016 1:11 pm A nice white on the render will be really good roo, good idea to tint the Windows too, it will make a strong contrast. Can't wait to see your door it will be awesome. Hahhahah your ss needs to suck it up, agree about not being a roll over customer. Halfway through our build my ss called me and said right when we have trades onsite and something isn't 100% clear I'm getting them to call you this is an example, Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ the stripping between the carpet and flooring isn't something we had a choice on and the flooring man just picks either the silver or the gold coloured one. Ss decided he didn't want to just guess and got the flooring man to call me, I came up to the house and had a look and picked the silver. The gold would of annoyed me but it's the attention to detail that counts. Re: Clarendon Parkhill 36 in Coomera Retreat. CABINETS 511Feb 15, 2016 1:17 pm 15/02/2016 - Tiles Started... Tiler was out on Friday to do the bedding for the upper floor bath rooms and back this morning to start the tiles. He's now got to pull 4 of them up, cut out the bedding and re-do them to allow for the smart floor wastes. Nothings ever straight forward lol We also have a new SM.. Mark id gone and we now have Scott. Met him this morning and if first impressions are anything to go by.. I think I am going to be happy for the next 6 weeks or so till hand over. Yup.. they reckon maybe 6 weeks.. as long as there are no hiccups lol. Laundry tub and benchtop were delivered this morning.

Kitchen is coming along great, big fan of the vertical grain in the cabinets. Your main floor tiling is a white porcelain? Will set the cupboards off beautifully. Re: Clarendon Parkhill 36 in Coomera Retreat. TILES STARTED 518Feb 22, 2016 11:20 am Good morning Tribe!! Lol... I love the tiles... and I don't clean them lmao. Yeah kitchen / living area will be 600 x 600 Crystal White Porcelain, and kitchen benches will be white. I had a friend question me as to why we had woodgrain base cupboards but white overheads. They couldn't understand it lol More tiles to clean Cheers, Paul (& Lisa) Parkhill 36 by ClarendonHomes in Coomera Retreat H1 Build Thread And Blog Building Blogs List - Go Ahead And Add Yours!!
