Browse Forums Building A New House Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 21Feb 25, 2016 9:30 pm Hi Heather I am just about to catch up with your thread The slab is very exciting but I just couldn't visualise the space at all. The tiles are fantastic. They feel really nice compared to standard, gloss and I'd even say they are nicer than polished porcelain to touch. We got slugged an extra $180 bucks to lay them as they are rectified but they are sure worth it! Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 22Feb 25, 2016 10:53 pm Agreed! Can't wait to have them down, gorgeous tiles and best I could find that weren't polished porcelain lol with three kids polished floors are not an option for my own sanity! Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 24Mar 06, 2016 12:34 am So exciting. Looking forward to watching the rest of your build Building a Fairmont Custom in Seaford Meadows Our Build Thread Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 25Mar 06, 2016 1:37 pm We are going there Tuesday, going to have to drive by and look at your progress.

Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 28Mar 09, 2016 7:08 pm Sorry to hear that about your son Marshall5858 hopefully he is getting better!

Make sure you get the plans perfect as you don't want to pay the 'admin fees' for changing things later on. Exciting Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 29Mar 09, 2016 8:18 pm Aww thank you, he's fine now. Thanks for the tip. We are sitting going through our plans as I type haha I will try and get some pics for you Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 30Mar 10, 2016 9:10 pm Cook2091 I love your colour selections - gorgeous tiles! - and I really look forward to seeing photos of the finished product. Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 31Mar 10, 2016 9:12 pm Marshall5858 I hope your selections day went well. I'm looking forward to seeing your own site soon. Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 32Mar 11, 2016 7:45 am Valerie Kiwikvinna Marshall5858 I hope your selections day went well. I'm looking forward to seeing your own site soon. Thanks Valerie, we've not done main selections yet, only tiles and carpet/flooring. I will document it soon. Just want to get drawings signed off and ball rolling today ? My trouble is, I'm indecisive! I look on here and see other people selections then start second guessing my own haha. We have known what we want for a long while and I would be silly to change it now. I'm as excited to see all of you guys builds as I am seeing my own start whoooo!!

Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 34Mar 11, 2016 12:39 pm Hey Marshall5858 thanks for that! Great to see the Windows have been put in so that's a nice little surprise How did you go with your plans? All signed off and ready to go? First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 35Mar 11, 2016 12:46 pm Wow don't the windows make a difference! Love your tiles! Sorry for the slow response. Rectified porcelains cost $50-$65 per square metre to lay. Our tiler was near the starting bracket I think. Think he might have under quoted. Our builder quoted us $100 psm LOL! I recommend my tiler but he's in the north. Prob bit far for him but worth asking! He was lovely, respectful, careful and did a top job! Nice work around doorframes and intricate cuts Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 36Mar 11, 2016 1:26 pm TomCat Wow don't the windows make a difference! Love your tiles!

We were finally at the stage where we love what we saw, just hope it looks as good in reality as it does in my mind ?. Your place is looking great! You're so lucky that you have a screen on your slider, we can't get them for ours so will have to source ourselves. I love the colour of your roof ? Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 38Apr 20, 2016 10:17 pm Hi Cook2091, How's it all going? Have you taken any new pics you could share?
