Thats a shame that they can't get you in for another two and a half weeks!! But look on the bright side, it gives you PLENTY of time to get the dreaded packing done, and for them to get all the little issues done and dusted and out of the way!! I really can't wait to see pictures of your finished home!! viewtopic.php?f=31&t=22766 - my build thread! Time waits for no man. Unless that man is Chuck Norris.

Awaiting hando 330Apr 15, 2010 9:41 pm Hi guys! Sorry I havent updated in so long! We have had a few delays with fixing everything up from PCI but it looks like we will be getting the keys to our house on Tuesday (20th April). Just cant wait to get in there now and get some pics to show you all! Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - PCI DONE! Awaiting hando 331Apr 15, 2010 9:45 pm Wow, you must be so excited. Excellent news Jess Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - PCI DONE! Awaiting hando 332Apr 15, 2010 9:47 pm Purple Butterfly Wow, you must be so excited. Excellent news Jess Thankyou! I am VERY excited but just so anxious to get in now after all my waiting! (I am not a very patient person at the best of times) I must head over to your thread and catch up on your news! Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - PCI DONE! Awaiting hando 333Apr 15, 2010 10:22 pm Awesome, a date! We've been hording tradies to come fix up little things so the delay might be our fault All ready to move?? Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 334Apr 16, 2010 11:06 pm WE HAVE KEYS!!! Got a really nice surprise this morning by getting a phonecall from our contact at Redink to say she had managed to pull some strings to get us the keys today! (Wasn't expecting them until mid next week) Very, very exciting! The rangehood still needs to be installed (which is happening on Monday) but everything else is all done. It's perfect because it enables us to start our painting this weekend (fun, fun) Another thing we have to do is get the front render of the house redone. We chose (what we thought) was a nice grey and it has turned out REALLY BLUE! That was a shock! We have reselected a nice, light colour so ill post pics of how that turns out too! I took lots of pics of the house for you guys but my camera died halfway through so my phone camera had to do for the others! Please excuse the poor quality. Of course will post some more once its all finished though! http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0712.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0715.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0716.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0717.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0719.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0720.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0721.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0722-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0723-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0724-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0726.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0727-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0728-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0729.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0730-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0731-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0732-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/DSC_0733-1.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2220.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2221.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2222.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2228.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2231.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2232.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2233.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2237.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2244.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2246.jpg http://i792.photobucket.com/albums/yy207/JessicaLouiseW/Handover%20Pics/IMG_2253.jpg Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 335Apr 16, 2010 11:10 pm Jessica, congrats! Nice to see you have window coverings up too. I like your facade blue. I think it matches nicely. Very exciting. Enjoy your new home. Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 336Apr 16, 2010 11:12 pm Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss that is FANTASTIC! What a visual treat Gawsh hasn't it all come together so well, I'm in love with those glass doors looking out into the kitchen, such great atmosphere. I love those silvery tiles on the laundry floor too, beautiful colour. On the render colour, don't you just hate it when colours aren't what you expected I think grey will suit your driveway and garage door better than the blue *high five with the goodie basket!!* DUST-BUSTING TIME! So you guys are painting yourselves? Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 337Apr 16, 2010 11:16 pm Vundaful! Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss that is FANTASTIC!

So you guys are painting yourselves? Thank you! We are really happy and have no regrets which is fantastic! I certainly wasnt expecting a blue render thats for sure! I nearly shed a tear when I saw it - was just such a shock! I can laugh about it now. We have chosen a very light grey that we found on a show home and it looked lovely. Fingers crossed! Love the goodie basket Yeah, we have a bit of a "painting party" this weekend and have friends/family all helping out to paint it! Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 338Apr 16, 2010 11:16 pm Dollar Jessica, congrats! Nice to see you have window coverings up too. I like your facade blue. I think it matches nicely. Very exciting. Enjoy your new home. Thanks Dollar! Much appreciated Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 339Apr 16, 2010 11:20 pm We just finished painting the non-tiles areas - 1 coat of Dulux sealer-binder to prime the plaster, 2 coats of Dulux Wash-and-Wear - and all I can say is: take the time to prepare your surface well The difference between a wall that we did a quick spak-fill and check, and a wall where we sanded lightly, picked up and filled all the little chips, dusted and wiped down is PHENOMENAL. You really don't see all the little plaster chips until you take the time to sand and clean down the walls. GOOD LUCK! Re: Building - RedInk Homes Perth - WE HAVE KEYS!! 340Apr 16, 2010 11:42 pm Congrats Jess. Wow I love your bamboo flooring.....which company did that and what colour is it? We're deciding on bamboo floor as well and might get the bamwood mocha from bamboozle.
