BLESSED yours looks brilliant though- very envious! Did you take out the wall to the theatre room to extend the kitchen? I'm worried about the kitchen being to small now in ours. But too late. I think my husband would have been upset if I had cut into the theatre room though! Can't wait to see your kitchen go in - that's the bit I'm really hanging for myself. Been waiting a long time for a decent kitchen. Yes we wanted an open plan living as we didnt want a theatre room. The kids have their own space upstairs with the PlayStation etc.... Our kitchen bench is 2550x900mm but then we have the fitted out butlers kitchen with another sink. So our Theatre room becomes the lounge and the family room becomes a study nook and Pool table area (wife approved) and the dining room will have a long table with this beautiful light on top. Can't wait till we get in. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Absolutely love this light, can i ask where you purchased it from please?

This forum is amazing to get ideas and also learn from mistakes of others as well. Hi Rayges, How are you guys going? We are not going good, one task a week seems to be the going rate with a build for Fowler. We still don't even have our cladding up!

Hi Rayges, How are you guys going? We are not going good, one task a week seems to be the going rate with a build for Fowler. We still don't even have our cladding up! Yeah same here KP16.....the roller coaster continues...... After our stairs went in we had the waterproofing done, painters came in and did the under coats, the fixout carpenters then put all the doors, architraves and skirting on, the garage door went on and it was like wow it's going fast and then got locked out (no more sneaking in after hours) Then.........(cricket sounds) nothing for nearly 2 weeks. Last week the tilers came for 2 days and didn't see them for the rest of the week. SS said they'll be there tomorrow until they finished and kitchen/bathroom cabinets are booked in the last week of November. Still no rendering for 2.5 months.... Please post some pics of your house, I'm dying to see what those Blackbutt bricks look like?!? Here are some updated pics of ours, we are going for concrete textured tiles: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Our Fowler Homes Paris 34 - Jordan Springs 60Nov 13, 2016 4:09 pm Rayges KP16 Rayges Ms_prez how true is that.

I think we have picked similar tiles to you as well. Hopefully we'll see an upper brick clean this week and the scaffolding down, I'll take a picture then. I have been so disappointed in the pace that I have not been very snap happy lately and have no photos! I would never build with Fowler homes.
