As tstr1a said if the name of the tapware no 1 is "Porcher Quatre Wall Top Assembly", no doubt I would get the No 3, as it says "Atlanta Wall top with Academy spout" in my colour document. Too bad as it is the standard tapware for the powder room, I did not verified after I received the colour document, as my colour consultant showed me No 1 & said you will be getting that as the standard, which I was really happy. I have been verified 95% of the items in my colour document prior to signing the contract, but I have still missed this few things like these. I have upgraded the hot & cold taps to mixures in all other 3 wash rooms except the ones in powder room & the laundry. I feel less stresful since this morning as finally my Pre-handover inspection & the PCI has been finalized, which will be held at the end of next week. At the moment couple of things has to be placed prior to PCI such as: Front Render, Carpeting, Final paintting session, splashback & appliances. The site has been cleaned & has removed the temporary fence & the garbage. Hopefully, we would be able to move in at least by the 1st week of July......fingers crossed...........

Hello All, For all those who have already built (or are at least now completed the floor tiling stage) do you have tiled skirtings in the Bathrooms / Ensuites? If so, can I ask how the transition between the tiled skirtings and the normal timber skirtings was achieved?

If so, can I ask how the transition between the tiled skirtings and the normal timber skirtings was achieved? Thanks in advance, Chorlton We have it, but it wasn't included as standard. The tiled skirting starts at the door frame so there is no actual connection between the normal MDF skirting and the tiled skirting. The door frame separates the two. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself. Terrence Malick Re: Porter Davis homes 2378Jun 15, 2011 5:04 pm tstr1a Chorlton Tiled Skirtings in Bathroom / Ensuite ?

The tiled skirting starts at the door frame so there is no actual connection between the normal MDF skirting and the tiled skirting. The door frame separates the two. Thats a nice execution and would have been my first choice. Unfortunately, due to the layout of the home there is no door frame between Master Bed and Ensuite so I'm forced to have the transition half way along a wall which will not look that good.
