Did you have a look? Our contracts arrives yesterday, as did our loan documents. Feeling a bit overwhelmed. We have started seriously thinking about exterior colours. There aren't a lot of bricks we like but we both love Austral Pepper. Monier have made it easy by putting together roofing tiles with facia and guttering colours on their website. We just have to see which roof tile works best and it is done. I also have to decide on the white for the walls. I was disappointed in the range for the bathroom vanities. We want charcoal/black. The only thing close is liquorice linea. Some pics make it look a browny colour. Has anyone seen this colour? What do you all think? Otherwise we will pay the extra and get charcoal. Coral builders, there are a couple of mistakes on the contract/working drawings that we want fixed. Does anyone know if they charge for this? Because we haven't signed yet, I am guessing they won't. Arrggghhhhh too much going on in my head. I am off on a shopping trip to Bali with the girls in 2 weeks. I am sooo gonna need it. Re: Tamara1975 - Coral Homes - 98Feb 02, 2011 5:32 pm There were a couple of things on the plan that the Sales Rep didn't convey to them properly, so they fixed them via a variation. I wasn't charged for this. They did try and charge me a variation fee for supplying them with the details of our ducted air-con system, as apparently the Sales Rep didn't provide the information pre-contract and they tried to charge me a variation ... but I argued that one. ~ trying to build our dream home by the sea ~ Re: Tamara1975 - Coral Homes - 99Feb 02, 2011 5:51 pm I spoke to our sales rep and he said it was easily fixed. I am getting excited. My tiles are going to look awesome (well, I think so). For our splashback, I have copied the coral hamilton display home in Upper Coomera (will add a pic later). It's really the only tiles one I like and the budget won't stretch to a glass one at this stage.
