Give the White Knight kitchen cabinet paints a go. Available from Bunnings. Absolutely amazing product/results. Perfect for rentals, too, as you can freshen up/change colours with such ease. Only tips are to really, really clean the surface with recommended cleaners and then wipe down with metho before painting. Oh, and it's OK to apply the colour coats with those little, baby rollers. You'll be so pleased with the result. Gonna be spending my night at Bunnings! That's our date night right there!!!

Still have defects to fix but not show stoppers. The inspector said that G Developments have been really good when he has dealt with them previously and that they always repair any defects. Compared to my colleague's Builders, my colleague referred me to the inspectors and told me how they argued with the builder on his behalf. I didn't understand what happens if I pass the defect list on, what happens next, how will I know they repaired it to standard? He explained that they either repair or not, but if something goes wrong down the track and I have the report to indicate the defect was known, I will be covered legally (give it to my insurance to deal with I guess). So for $400 it bring peace of mind. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ See that first pic - where the 2 studs have been joined together by the outer piece of timber... Does that need to be fixed or is that OK??

Man with all the money I'm spending, its coming out of the new house, trying to save money so its all via free slave labour (mine) Re: Custom Build with G Devel. in Bris - Onto Lock Up Stage 57Sep 27, 2018 8:42 pm Bricks started this morning and I think they are 3/4 done. Looks good but site is messy and hard to walk around and see. The left side fence is below the foundation which obviously is dangerous so hopefully they fix that up b4 handover. Ugh choosing your colours in summer means I kept it light (reflective) now I think I went too safe with roof, when we are under lots of shade Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Custom Build with G Devel. in Bris - Bricks are up 58Sep 27, 2018 9:35 pm pandibabi Bricks started this morning and I think they are 3/4 done.

Roof colour can be changed with a paint, so see if it grows on you.

My kitchen cabinets show wood grain going vertical when my variations specifically stated horizontal. They probably say another week lost to fix it. Would you raise an issue?
