Hi Drew
you mentioned your consultant at Beaumont tiles, did M assign you a consultant or did you go in yourself? We haven't had our colour selection app yet, but we went into Beaumont a few weeks ago and when we told them we were building the M they didn't give us the time of day.
Go and do all your selections at Beaumont - just don’t tell them your building thru M - then you will get service. After you sign your M contract you will be booked in with Beaumont’s Studio to order your tiles. But you will need to know most of your selections before this appointment as it won’t be long enough (about 1.5hrs) to make selections from scratch.
We were never booked into Beaumonts, we did our selections at Studio M. We'd been and looked at tiles already and just told them which ones we wanted.
