Browse Forums Building A New House Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 18Feb 25, 2016 9:14 pm We choose super white polished porcelain for the living areas 600x600 and a charcoal outdoor tile for the porch and alfresco 450x450 area. We are going for that 'in' white and grey theme that seems to work so well at the moment which is also reflected in our kitchen with a moose and white gloss finish on the bench, drawers and cupboards. We have chosen monument for the roof colour and also a monument garage. We got PGH liquorice bricks with white sand mortar along with andotic grey window frames. We are rendering the front of the house with a light colour to contrast with the monument and charcoal colours but we don't know whether to go whitish (surf mist) or a very light grey. Any suggestions welcome! Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 19Feb 25, 2016 9:23 pm Hi, been reading through your build, Nice selections! We chose exile ash lappato for our living area tiles, they are lovely! Your slab looks good, we just had ours done and it is hard to tell room sizes, I bet you can't wait to see the frames when you get out there you will have a better idea then I guess Re: First home - Suburban Adelaide - Seaford build 20Feb 25, 2016 9:26 pm We decided to supply our appliances ourself and managed to get a massive 49 per cent off with Euro for each item we purchased so we threw in a fully integrated dishwasher and washer/dryer as the price was fantastic. It just goes to show that sometimes it's worth shopping around rather than just accepting the builders sizeable marked up products. 900mm electric cook top - Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ 900mm electric oven - Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Fully integrated dishwasher - Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Front load 8.5kg Washer/Dryer - Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ The range-hood is being provided by the builder as its covered by overheads and it was cheaper than what we could find ourself.
