It will be the same as the timber hardwood stairs as we have no carpet flooring. Upstairs will be timber laminated flooring Amstel, a dark brown. Downstairs open areas are marble porcelain tile, it looks like a warm cream colour.

We got Henley's darkest stain when we did our colour selection back in March and it wasn't very dark, more like a chestnut colour! Maybe they have more of a range now! You don't happen to have a pic of the stain colour do you Spice Girl? We are also doing porcelain, can't wait to see how they will look in the large entrance hall Re: New Build with Henley ( Palace Q1) 126Sep 30, 2016 4:20 pm Mclaren77 spice girl We are going with rich chocolate, the darkest one.

Re: New Build with Henley ( Palace Q1) 134Oct 03, 2016 11:26 am It is such a good looking door and well worth the extra $$$$'s it is one of our non-negotiables! there is just something about having a pivot door!

Ours is already up towards the 70k mark! that isnt including flooring! We are doing this after hand over New Build with Henley ( Palace Q1) 136Oct 03, 2016 7:58 pm stayxtrue How much in extras did you end up adding to your house? Ours is already up towards the 70k mark! that isnt including flooring! We are doing this after hand over Well I think we did ok, 65k from the base price being $287000. We were really happy with the plan of the house and didn't do any structural changes except extend width of garage. We are doing carpet upstairs and tiling to flooring only downstairs after handover. We've been quoted for porcelain tiles $3500 ( no labour, our friend will help us with this, as he is a tiler) and carpet $8800 supplied and fitted with premium underlay. Our cousin is a concreter which will help us with driveway etc and my husband has done all of our CCTV and data cabling! We are fortunate as we've helped a lot of people with their builds and now they are happy to return the favour! We will also do cooling after handover through another friend. I do suggest anyone needing carpet or tiles to go through Western Distributors in Melbourne! They have a great range at great prices.
