Absolutely love it. Although they have stuffed up and haven’t put it in our 2 toilets! Will be organising a meeting with our SS to discuss. We spent most of the day cleaning up the site today and mowing our acre. I filled 5 milk crates of builders personal rubbish and building materials. Looks so much tidier now. Very dry though. We need rain desperately.

Brickies started this week. But had 2 days off due to much needed rain. Loving our brick choice. Can’t wait to see all the bricks done. We chose Austral Governors Wakehurst with Raked mortar joints in off white. Very happy 😊 Will post more photos after all bricks are laid.

That’s exactly the look we are going for. We love the old style bricks.

Brickies have almost finished. Very happy with the job they have done so far. Will look amazing once it’s acid washed and cleaned up.

Internal fix out has started. All architraves and skirtings have been started. So glad we decided to upgrade to a colonial style. Cost a bit but well worth the money. All doors have been hung also. We upgraded to HAG12 as we wanted a Hampton’s style door. All built wardrobes have hinged doors also and look great. Can’t wait to see how they come up painted. Just a couple of things we’ve noticed. Light switch in main bedroom has been put on the wrong side. Also outdoor light switch in main bed is on wrong side. It’s stated clearly on the electrical plan so hopefully just an over site.

A lot has happened this week. The kitchen is in and splash back tiled. Grouting still to be done. Bathroom vanity and en-suite vanity have been installed and floor tiles laid. Have a problem with the plumbing and waste position in en-suite. The vanity is being redone with 2 longer cupboards on the ends and 1 bank of drawers in centre. The way it was designed the waste had no where to go. I’m not convinced the plumbing for the left had tap is in the right spot. 🤭.

Beaumont tiles agreed to upgrade our floor grout to misty grey. Apparently this is an upgrade from standard natural grey. Anyway we are happy with the result as the grout matches the tiles perfectly. Glad we questioned Beaumont’s. We already paid for somfy motors for the blinds. The quote above was purely for “pre-wiring” so the blinds company can install the motors and blinds. That’s why we… 5 16073 of course there are legal avenues. You've already mentioned it. Sue them.
