Looks fabulous Spuddles. Great design & choices. A quick question about your alfresco, did you have to put in a drain grid???? ::wornout::

Sorry not sure if it is called that! along the edge in case of flooding because there is no drop down & do you mind if I ask if it was much extra ?
Thanks heaps

There was no discussion about drainage around the alfresco, but I did think about it. I'm assuming you are talking about something similar to this. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ . Fortunately with the tiling, they have done the edges, so we can either butt up level, or drop down slightly. Still deciding on backyard landscaping. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅

Lol..... yes that's it, thanks. I absolutely love the look of flowing the tiles through and great to see it down so nice. Definitely is staying on my must have list.

thank you. Our first home we built was all over the place. Blue and white bathroom, black and white ensuite, and purple kitchen!!!!

This time it's plain Jane throughout, and we can add colour with decorating.

You're on to winner with that Spuddles - I remember building first time round, and even it was suggested this time I think - different colours for the kitchen, ensuite, bathroom...
I was like no!! Same throughout and add details through the styling.
If I've learnt one thing from the block, you've got to have consistency

I've always believed in carrying the same colour scheme throughout. I could never understand why people chose so many different colours in laminates etc when they build houses. My mum built in late July '80s and had blue in the master suite & then beige in the rest of the house. I thought it looked crappy.

My sister built early '90s and did multi blue in the bathroom & then sage green/terracotta in the kitchen. When asked why they did that the reply was 'cos they wanted different colours.

My bf's house is the same - black in the kitchen, blue & white in the main bathroom & terracotta with green in the ensuite. Eeeek!

When i finally built my 1st house, i took pains to make sure that the colours of my house flowed thru the house from front garden to back garden & am doing the same again with my new house.

Your builder is efficient. My final PCI just booked on Friday. Hope no dramas this time, I really don't wanna wait for another two weeks for their rectifications.

Wifey is a former Property Manager, so she'll be onto every little detail.

I believe our SS has gone on holiday, so we have Adam instead. Anyone have him as a SS??
