Our front door has been painted a black stain, when this was the colour we picked... Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ That looks pretty close to the Walnut colour we chose. I actually asked them to re-stain our front door when I first saw it as it looked more like a red brown and I knew I had chosen walnut specifically as I didn't want those red undertones. And they did it straight away for me. When we spoke to our colours lady, she called this black. She said "its called black, but only because its a darker stain" so we didnt question it. So its been signed off as black.. but our door is quite literally black, and not this. Im not sure what can be done.

I remember one being called black something but it looked pretty much black in the sample. Have you asked if they would change it?

Have you asked if they would change it? Were going to keep asking about it. We weren't ever shown that wood chart or this chart from QTF. from http://www.qtf.com.au/colours/ . Just seems so odd that our colours lady would tell us that. Theres no way we wouldve picked black as a stain if we'd know it wasnt what i was holding in that picture. Re: Fowler Homes Catalina 23 - Oran Park 315Oct 29, 2018 2:03 pm Lara21 I hope they fix it for you! Was it meant to be Black Japan? The colour chart you linked looks like Black Japan is a similar brown colour? Thank you, i hope so too. Yes, thats what i thought too. Thanks for helping! I'll keep you posted with what happens. ~ Amazing work with your garden by the way, i've been following your progress! Its really all coming together now! Re: Fowler Homes Catalina 23 - Oran Park 317Nov 04, 2018 12:12 pm We had our PCI on Friday! There's still a few touch ups to do and weve discouvered cracking in our grout in our main ensuite but hopefully they can get it fixed before the 16th which is the tentative date for Handover Im not very happy with the colour of our stair balustrades and steps though but it'll be easy enough to paint over later on i guess so im not too concerned!

I'm sure you're super relieved its almost over, and just in time for Christmas too Like you, I'm trying not to get too caught up on things that are just cosmetic issues. The colour we picked (taubmans adolescence) for our outdoor pillars look like a baby blue, instead of a mid grey. So we'll be painting on top of it also. I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending. All their existing trades and businesses don't work with… 14 105609 Anyone built with Fowler Homes? Feedback? Especially any things concerning or negatives? Have heard some horror… 0 9337 |
