Browse Forums Building A New House Re: JG King modified Heywood - Handover! 1390Dec 15, 2017 9:54 pm Thank you everyone! So, so much cleaning to do! I'll have no fingernails left by the end of the weekend from scratching paint, grout and silicon off everything! It looks clean until you're left here alone then all the little bits start jumping out at you! I'm trying to focus on the grout for now because I want to seal it tomorrow, then we're back "home" Sunday to finish packing for the move Monday! We're camping here for the weekend so I can guard my ovens ![]() Some random photos: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Finally!

What a great Christmas "gift". Re: JG King modified Heywood - Handover! 1397Dec 16, 2017 2:46 pm Sealing the grout just helps it resist staining. I'm using stuff Beaumonts recommended, I never got around to doing my own research so just went with what they said. I'm about to apply it with applicator bottles from bunnings. I'll let you know how they go, Beaumonts said to use a tiny paintbrush. Worst bit is the grout needs to be clean first ![]() Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ It is looking very clean at the moment!

I finished 2 coats on the main floor (roughly 90m2) in a few hours. The bathrooms will have to wait until we move in. The dark grout needs some more intensive cleaning which I don't have time for today. Tomorrow will be packing the kitchen, bathroom and clothes! https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t Re: JG King modified Heywood - Handover! 1400Dec 16, 2017 10:02 pm There was much debate about where to put the wreath on an asymmetrical door!
