I like the cafe black gloss for the bath! Thanks Rhani. We have that as second option currently. First preference would be to put wood look tiles for floor and take it to shower and tub and other walls will be plain white, cream or cool grey gloss. If this is not possible then I wld jump to black cafe tiles for just tub and some other standard tiles for floor and walls. Ya, its daunting right all these appointments. When is ur tile appointment? Ours is coming thursday🤪 Re: Manhattan 21 heavily modified - Coral Homes Sunshine Coa 12Oct 17, 2018 4:08 am Tomorrow we have our Tile appointment at National Tiles. Hoping everything goes well. Kinda have a rough idea on what we want but we keep changing our minds now and then. Any suggestions are welcome. Will post our selections after we complete our tile appointment.

What are you thinking size wise? finish? colour? Re: Manhattan 21 heavily modified - Coral Homes Sunshine Coa 14Oct 18, 2018 4:34 pm We finished our Tile appointment at National Tiles Sunshine Coast. 1st Shock we got was an updated list of selections with very few tiles in standard list. 2nd What we chose and finalized for walls and wet area floors was no more standard 😪 3rd Forest Tile which is a timber look tile was standard but they said laying even in standard way without doing offset was going to cost us more. Then eventually after calling coral homes they said no extra laying cost for it 😤 Will update with our selections soon.... waiting for the cost which we were not given during the appointment👎 Re: Manhattan 21 heavily modified - Coral Homes Sunshine Coa 16Oct 18, 2018 5:51 pm Hi MrsAJ, it’s nice to see someone else from the Sunshine Coast here! We have our appointment with National Tiles tomorrow (we are building with Vantage), and we have basically the same standard list. They sent it to us a couple of weeks ago, so I have been on the website trying to decide what to pick! I can’t wait to see your selections.

Same here, it's so nice to see someone from Sunshine Coast. Where are you building? It's good you were given the correct list. We were given a old one which had Promenade and Alphine 600x600 etc We are actually waiting for the cost so based on that we can confirm our tile selections. One thing for sure is we have chosen Forest Natural 300x600 for living, laundry, bathroom, powder room, butlers pantry and kitchen. We upgraded the grout to 3rd level. Not all grout r same price. They have standard range and then upgrade range 1 and range 2. We went with range 2 for Forest Natural. Regina for Porch and Alfresco. We wanted the Forest tile but we were asked to choose External Tile strictly. What have you chosen? Do you have your build forum? Will love to see your selections. Re: Manhattan 21 heavily modified - Coral Homes Sunshine Coa 18Oct 19, 2018 11:58 am The tile inclusions have changed a bit since we did our selections in March. We had a bigger range available which was probably the old list you got first. Our upgrade cost was only $117 as we only upgraded the floor grout.

I think for us it going to be in 4 digits 🤣 Re: Manhattan 21 heavily modified - Coral Homes Sunshine Coa 20Oct 19, 2018 1:45 pm We got the Alpine Ivory 450 x 450(for inside and outside) AND Simplicity Mocha 300 x 600 and Industry Mare 200 x 600 (for wet areas). We must have been lucky because the wet area tiles aren't on your list any more. We also got the Ice Snow for the benchtops. It looks great. We have been in our house for 2 months at Newport.
