Spoke to the supervisor about the previous post but didn't do anything about it. Said that's normally how it is and it might clean up better once it's washed. In the last week we've had the electrical in and my husband is a gyprock fixer so they've been in this weekend doing all the linings. Coming up a great!

Re: Playford Alive build - Homestead Sandridge 109Feb 16, 2016 6:56 pm I've been looking at tiles today. In love with a vanilla 600x600 rectified porcelain tile. Any recommendations for a tiler? Building a modified version of The Sandridge through Homestead Homes. Re: Playford Alive build - Homestead Sandridge 110Feb 16, 2016 10:58 pm Yes definitely! The guy who did our 600 polished porcelains was fantastic top bloke, super contentious and polite too.. Fair/good cost. Great job. From your side of town too. Shane 0427 724 603.

Soo the wet area tiles are done! The painter has been in for approx 2 weeks and thinks he has another 2 weeks to go. It's just an old man doing it on his own poor thing! Here's some new pics!

Will look at installing this at a later stage. Just a bugger that the washing machine taps will have to be moved lower otherwise they will be above bench height! Can't wait for the essa stone benchtop to go on! Do they normally leave this for near the end? Also still waiting on skylights to be installed in the home theatre! Thought this would be done already! Have been getting quotes for tiling, concrete and the mirrored splashback. Building a modified version of The Sandridge through Homestead Homes. Re: Playford Alive build - Homestead Sandridge 119Mar 16, 2016 10:37 pm Love it! I like the look of benches in the laundry too but prefer top loading washer, so that canned that idea. Yes easy enough to do that later and yes I think it's normal for stone to be fitted last. Your wet areas are lovely. How luxe are floor-ceiling tiles ... Re: Playford Alive build - Homestead Sandridge 120Mar 16, 2016 10:39 pm Loooove our floor to ceiling tiles in the ensuite.
