You would expect them to go by the plan. Normal batten holders, are placed in the middle of the room. Downlights are placed symmetrical and parallel to each other, certain distance away from the wall. Too close to the wall and they will look off and the light will not be as expected. But they would know all this. We have had no issues there.

Think again. For us, after my first shower, the gap between the frame and the door is so wide, specially bottom section, the water just runs out. When I came out of the shower, there was more water in the bathroom floor than in the shower! Now I have to make a visit to Clark Rubber to find a solution to place a rubber fitting along the bottom of the glass door to stop the water running down and out to the bathroom floor Or, did M supply me a shower door that does not fit properly?? We have the same shower as you,but ours came with a clear rubber strip that fills that gap and we dont have any problem with ours.Sounds like you need to contact your old ss if you dont have that strip.Also good to see alot of progress on everyones build. Havnt been on for a while as my dear Mum passed away unexpectedly last month. Re: Masterton Homes - The new thread 3.0 2999Jul 11, 2013 3:36 pm [quote="Vina"]Hi guys We are finally slabbed on Monday 8 Jul 2013 I have 2 questions: 1 They did not put concrete for front porch eventhough it is included. Do they do this at later stage? 2 It rained yesterday and today. I can see the water puddles on the slab. Is that ok? We also have the ivy facade and our porch did not come standard.Did you pay extra to have it included because if you didnt then you will need to do it when you do your driveway, as we did. Re: Masterton Homes - The new thread 3.0 3000Jul 11, 2013 7:40 pm sorry to hear about your mother nugget hope you and the family are doing ok xx we don't have a porch so will be having to do this when we do our driveway as well. thanks for the tip Vatche as always we will be keep an eye I think we got semi frame-less Budorat in before Christmas now that's a great Christmas present!!!! 4 16752 Hi, Apologies - I know there is plenty out there on this but struggling to put together the puzzle.
