I went with Aspen Brown but they have quite a few nice colours! I generally wouldn't go for a "timber-look" product and would've had real timber if I could afford it but I this is an extremely convincing product! They are at carpet call and I definitely recommend you go see it in person. Much nicer than some of the shiny/flat laminates and vinyls. It has a very similar texture to a timber board.

Exciting times coming up  21 Mar 2017 212 VIC Bronze Member Re: Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 49May 11, 2017 7:27 pm So my first run with coral at trying to get a variation or something swapped once you've be got a start date or are under construction. I need advice!! I always planned to have an undermount kitchen rangehood so that the overhead cupboards would read as one. This (or what H_Family_build have): Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Not this: Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ In the rush of colour selection day I somehow missed that I had the standalone rangehood like the second image (and I'm kicking myself). I got my start date a few days ago and realised this the very next day so contacted coral. Unfortunately my CSO replied that because I had a start date, everything has already been ordered and they can't do anything but I could talk to my supervisor to see if anything could be done. My thoughts: A. coral never moves that quickly, so I doubt it was actually all ordered when I asked B. It's a rangehood which is installed late in the build so surely they could order the new one, and eventually credit me back for the original and charge me for the new. They'd be able to return or use the original on another job. Also I'd even supply it myself so it's on site on time if that's what their concern is. I thought it'd be straightforward to order and pay for a variation, given start date is a week and a half away (or even if they had started) there's plenty of time. Even coral said the extra cabinetry is no issue as it's all the same finish. Any suggestions? 21 Mar 2017 212 VIC Bronze Member Re: Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 50May 17, 2017 3:58 pm Anybody had things changed once on site? At the time I was getting a start date I asked about a couple of changes, (swap rangehood out for a undermount, shifting the db) but cso said i should wait until I talked to ss on site. Now build is about to start and I'm in contact with site supervisor and he forwarded my requests onto new cso who said "sorry you've now got a start date so we can't make any more changes". Hopefully if I rehash in person on site the SS can see if they can do anything to move the db. Just frustrating when I was told it was better to wait and talk to site supervisor. If I'd known it'd be a flat "no more changes" I would have insisted on getting it sorted before start date was issued. They're currently doing a variation which my SS raised to change my termite system. Seems unfair that I can't raise a variation.

They are just making it difficult for you, there is always time to change - it's your money! viewtopic.php?f=31&t=85653&p=1642230#p1642230 Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 54May 28, 2017 9:20 am Your trade is a spunk  Congrats on your slab GJ Gardner Modified Coolum 277 http://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=83643 Re: Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 55May 28, 2017 9:44 am thats hilarious he would most definitely do a better job then most full size tradies  Coral homes Modified Stradbroke 26 weeks Milestone coral homes modified stradebroke 32 08 Aug 2016 1,537 NSW Gold Member Re: Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 56May 28, 2017 10:06 am Woo hoo congrats love yr tradie  Re: Coral Homes Build SEQ - modified Grange 20 57May 28, 2017 1:08 pm Slab in the first week must be some sort of record?!?!
