Love the step especially with your door in the background Are you having stone benchtops? Will it be waterfall ends or just standard? GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1013Feb 16, 2017 7:55 pm Lots of exciting things. We met with our Leisure Pools rep today too. Can't wait for that to start. Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1014Feb 16, 2017 8:18 pm Thanks Reg, CB, Bec! Reg yep! Sure is a big bulkhead. Unfortunately we couldn't extend our cupboards but in all honestly I'm ok with it. Taller cupboards would have accentuated the ceiling heights very nicely. Ah well. Cb: we are having stone tops but no waterfall ends. We couldn't stretch that far. We are having the 'sleek concrete' from caesarstone. Omg. I'm really looking forward to that!

We couldn't fit any bigger on the block but will be big enough for us I think. I know the owner of the local company to apparently they are taking our quote and are going to tweek it for us. Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1016Feb 16, 2017 8:38 pm Wow that's a decent size pool lol The harmony length we are looking at is 6m and width is 2.9. Will be interesting to see how much it comes In at. We've got another guy quoting a pool that hubby knows and he's done heaps of work designing the pool into our backyard so I'm keen to compare. - otherwise known as Kym - Re: Our first build: "Bridgewater" by Gj's Shoalhaven 1017Feb 16, 2017 9:02 pm Becs Coral We are getting the elegance 7x3.9m with spa jets.

The sales consultant said her favourite is the black I e but the main issue with it is you can't see snakes or spiders laying in it...so that went off the list. The issue with the aquamarine is I have only seen the ones in the booklet and not one up close. For that reason hubby said no...and to stick with the traditional sapphire blue.
