But it was all okay up to the site fall testing. They had photos of the block prior. Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 122Aug 31, 2017 9:53 pm It's interesting isn't it. We supplied our own site survey to Metricon (and the other builders we tried) so they could assess with the actual levels. We had this though as we went custom design before going to project builders. Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 124Sep 05, 2017 11:42 am Looking great what colour did you choose for your walls?

Main bedroom we did slightly darker though. It's going to be one white house... have some artwork and soft furnishings planned, have a dark couch and dining chairs. Really wanted the timber floor to be the main feature. Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 126Sep 07, 2017 7:11 pm Scaff removed! Bit bunker like, the timber front door softens it. One of the timber windows is incorrect and needs to be replaced. Once we get some soft landscaping in it will improve the facade. I LOVE how light the house is. 5pm when a storm is outside, and this is the living area. Last coat of paint on tomorrow!

Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 129Sep 09, 2017 10:43 am Can't wait to visit tomorrow to see the final paintjob! Will have to do some weeding round the block, too. Vantage, no - all the windows in the living area are standard.

Metricon Vantage https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t No - these were standard inclusions, but I suspect only standard in the Signature range. We downsized some of the windows to the minor beds, they were a bit big. Can now put a bed underneath the window. Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 133Sep 10, 2017 8:32 pm Very nice progress looks great. Love those undermount sinks.

Metricon Vantage https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t I know right these windows are amazing. Signature range must have awning windows as standard. Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=85381#p1630392 Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 136Sep 19, 2017 8:14 pm Yeah, the awning windows were standard. So, tiling should be complete by end next week. Fit offs have been booked for same timeframe. Still loads to do - it's a race to see if we get handover before christmas. Seeing as how our contract date is end Jan, it's 50/50 right now and I'm not sure they will finish. Still have to do: External

Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 137Sep 22, 2017 9:44 pm Vantage_35 Love your kitchen sink haven't seen that one before. What colour wood grain are your bathroom cabinets? Sorry Vantage, I missed this! The wood grain is Laminex 'Honey Elm' with a riven (textured) finish. It's quite nice; looks good in. The kitchen sink is an Afa Exact undermount. Re: KDR: Metricon Signature Split Level Sloping Block 138Sep 23, 2017 12:07 am Are these a solid board, do you have a close up pic? I think we got the same thing - the middle of the range of flooring? Also, how did they do under cabinetry? I assume the kickers went on last? We've been told we have to have quad on the island bench, such I don't understand really...

We've been told we have to have quad on the island bench, such I don't understand really... Hey Drew, Our floor went in before cabinetry so no quad - that was a condition for us; and I got it in writing in the contract to be doubly sure. We went for the top of the range Metricon boards (engineered, post finished). I'm guessing they're doing your floorboards after cabinetry if you need quad? Some slightly closer up not very clear pics, but they're not finished yet.

Seriously don't think we'll be getting handover before christmas though. Went over this morning and there's just too much to do in terms of big jobs and little jobs. The whole front door is askew - carpenter has fixed it, but of course all the plaster and paint is wrecked. And it's not fixed - it's worse!!
