Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 13, 2015 7:41 pm Howdy, I need advice on the below: Please Note: We have to be budget conscious.... 1. We are doing our flooring after handover, what is the best hard wearing floors. We will have 4 kids under 4, no pets. Also we are not having any carpet in house. We were thinking bamboo, but love the price of laminate.... 2. After handover, I'm wanting to fit out my WIRs, 1 at a time (4bdrm), starting with mine. Haha. Is it better to get builders to delete WIR rails and get money back or it doesnt matter custom fits work around the rails anyway? 3. As mentioned we will have 4 small children, 3 girls possibly 4 . Should we try and get a double basin in their bathroom? Now their current basin size is 1m & it has possibly 100ml on each side inbetween shower and bath, is this enough room and is it a smart decision as at 6 & 4 they already are yelling and screaming at teeth time.... 4. Where is the best place to put a TV point in a kids retreat? On a centre wall under a high window (does not come to the ground) or to the left or right - for space options? Thanks for all your advice! Re: WIRs, Flooring, Double Basins & TV Points... 3Feb 20, 2015 8:48 pm Hi Emma, I'll have a go although it's pretty hard as what I prefer may not suit you 1. All flooring have pros and cons, check the flooring section, Michelle gives great advice. I'm probably going bamboo which is comparable with good laminate, for you laminate may be better with kids, have you considered vinyl? 2. We're fitting out our WIR after handover, was originally going to do all bedrooms but the cost was minimal from the builder and we may not get around to it in a timely fashion so something better than nothing. If you get a credit it won't be much 3. 3 girls possibly 4? Definitely 2 basins haha 4. TV point, anywhere they can't reach Hope this helps, so much is personal preference, good luck Custom build Northern NSW viewtopic.php?f=31&t=72217 Re: WIRs, Flooring, Double Basins & TV Points... 4Feb 21, 2015 1:07 pm Thanks TraceyWayne. 1. I shall research the differences btw Vinyl and Bamboo thanks 2. Credit is poor I think $180 3. I agree, the issue now is I wonder if 2 sinks would fit a measley 1m basin? 4.
