Tiling has started 3851Jul 31, 2017 12:14 pm charlibear Hubby decided to stick with standard lay. The tiler said that for the brick bond to stand out we would need white grout to highlight it, I definitely want dark grout and hubby says I've spent too much already on our ensuite with upgrades so no more money to upgrade to brickbond lay hehe - so far just on the ensuite I've spent $3700... Oops lol Omg can this week hurry up so I can go out and see tiles.... He is doing the main floor this week then will do the bathrooms. Hopefully painting will start next week? If he does main floors this week does that I cant walk on them this weekend if I find a way in? https://www.homeone.com.au/member/bribiebell Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 28...

You had the better idea, dark grout! The tiles will look great however they're laid - you have excellent taste! Great taste = Expensive taste. The End! So glad it's getting to the final outcome for you! 'Bout bluddy time! Excited for you. Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 28...

I know right as soon as he said white grout I pretty well had my mind made... standard lay, just wanted to confirm with hubby I am hoping we are on the home stretch now, there is a house in our estate a daydream 28 or 30, they started at the end of May and will get their keys in 4 weeks or so their SS reckons Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 28...

This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 8 17180 thank you! do we need to get this or our builder before we commence new build on the block? 2 10260 Hi, did you get any money from insurance? if you did, does it match what you've already paid the builders? 3 9432 |
