We are getting our outdoor patio tiled after handover so I will have to remember to ask about the tiles matching up, thanks for the reminder So worth talking to the tiler. The metal trim around the edge is a really nice finish too. I will get some better photos once everything is clean and you can actually see through the windows.

I don't recall seeing metal trims before outdoors (but I havn't been looking at outdoor tiles in displays - haven't gotten that far ahead for us yet) but it seems like a great idea, like you said - less chipping we have our wet areas getting started today but we don't have a garage door haha Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 226Jun 20, 2018 11:13 am CC7 bestspecials CC7they look great!

We did mention to the tiler that we were putting a couple of big steps down to the letter box that we would be getting tiled, so he has even allowed a small overlap on the patio so we can tile on the front of the slab too.

Although, you won't have too much left, ah it's so exciting. Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 231Jun 21, 2018 10:10 am  DylandbrookeWoooooooow!!!! Your outdoor area is def my fav!!!! It looks excellent 😍😍😍 Thanks. Yours will look just as good once it's done. Pretty sure yours is about the same size. Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 233Jun 27, 2018 12:52 pm bestspecialsSo, internal painting is well under way and loving the colour. Sorry, no photos as yet (it was a bit dark and gloomy yesterday). Saw the painter at the house and we had a look around, just need the feature walls painted. External render paint cancelled for rest of week due to rain. Electrical fitout booked for Friday, then it will start to feel like you can live there. Still no bath - Hmmmm!! Yay how exciting!! 🎉🎉 what feature could pour are you thinking?

Painters onsite today starting on eaves. He said he may even have some colour on the external walls too. Plumbers have finished (didn't even know they had started) Electricians onsite today to start the fit out. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Main bathroom - we finally have a bath.

Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 238Jul 03, 2018 8:27 pm how good is your glass splashback! are you still on track for your PCI date you were given? Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 239Jul 03, 2018 10:16 pm CC7how good is your glass splashback! are you still on track for your PCI date you were given? Thanks. Saw the SS today and he said the cleaners are starting tomorrow. He said we should be getting an email from Head Office shortly. Re: Coral Homes - Grange 25 (Newport) 240Jul 05, 2018 10:45 pm It feels like the end is really close. Outside painting nearly finished, screens installed, plumbing finished, mirrors, robes, shower screens installed, goop off windows and the cleaners have done a partial clean. Electricians coming tomorrow to finish off. Still need painters for feature walls, finish outside and touchup where other trades have scuffed walls (only a couple of spots which is good), carpet, dishwasher, silicon for bathrooms, site clean and cleaners to do final clean. SS said that he will be doing a Quality Inspection end of next week and then should be PCI for week after. So Close.

They have put the barrier screens on too. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ And dining room. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ And out the master bedroom windows. I hope they don't build across the road for a while. So glad we upgraded to the Barrier Screens. They look great.
