If you see our garage you won't believe it is garage. I once forgot too, lol. Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3583Nov 03, 2015 9:14 pm Now I remember, its for wifey's home office. Hey Mirz, When you had your PCI meeting, did you raise any concerns regarding the tiling (floor and wall tiles)? ------------------------------------------- Build Thread - Mainvue Emporio ER430 KDR https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=76790&p=1332227&hilit=mainvue#p1332227 Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3584Nov 03, 2015 9:54 pm Yes, we had few issues with tiles alignment on wall above bath hob. and also in powder room feature tiles.

Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3589Nov 04, 2015 8:20 am MichaelQ Thanks, the alignment of our tiles seem fine, issue is evenness of the floor tiles in bathroom. better ask them to bring in another better tiler. This tiler will keep on trying and will make it worst. it happened to us too, and we gave up after a certain tries. Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3590Nov 04, 2015 9:16 am yeah like you said, when they remove the tiles, the surface is no longer level which makes the job more challenging. Sounds a bit like Russian roulette. ------------------------------------------- Build Thread - Mainvue Emporio ER430 KDR https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=76790&p=1332227&hilit=mainvue#p1332227 Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3591Nov 04, 2015 2:47 pm they had to remove gluey stuff under the tiles. they will re-tile, will end up with either leveling wrong or uneven corners, or even gaps between the tiles. we been through this and regretted, should have stayed with initial less mess. unless you would be very lucky to have some great tiler to turn up at your site, odds wont be very promising.

Gotta say you have alot of patience Mate I will probably need to revisit a few pages to when you got your backyard done but I've got a quick question - did you install sprinklers at the time or have plans to do in the near future ??

I think you had a great idea by putting the planks in front of the sleepers. Never would have thought of that. Just one question, we have our colour appointment next wednesday, and we got a call from the admin wanting to book us into tender for the following week. Is that enough time for Henley to get everything ready for tender? How long was it between your colour appointment and tender? Or anyone else. Thanks.

I had a one week between colour appointment and the Tender. That was enough I have add and remove stuff on the day of Tender good luck Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3598Nov 10, 2015 8:21 am darrenedwards Hi Mirz, the backyard looks great.

It's good for you indeed. Worst case scenario, if they will make mistakes, they will have to fix them. Just remind you admin to email you a copy of tender document at least a day in advance. This will give you time to go through and double triple check, selected colours, material, and changes. Good luck with upcoming appointments Re: Sahara Q1 - Backyardian 3599Nov 10, 2015 8:23 am jillybug Well done Mr Landscaper! I should be paying you to do our backyard.
