Kitchen looking great - I would doubt the red splashback as well from what I see on my screen. The ,ighter grey for me, the other looks very dark blue on this screen - I wonder if this screen is making your kitchen a bit blue as well?? Paula Re: BUILDING update 346Jul 13, 2008 6:25 pm You might be right paula. The cupboards do throw a slight blue (due to the comfort plus I think as they were a definite silver in the showroom) and I think it is exaggerated on the screen. The tile is definitely not blue but a dark grey, from what we can tell with the naked eye. Re: BUILDING update 347Jul 13, 2008 6:39 pm Nice kitchen Dy. Sorry I'm no help on the splashback, still trying to get used to mine! I like the lighter tile for the balcony, would like to see the other one "normal" colour as it's very blue on my screen! Happy at Home Re: BUILDING update 348Jul 14, 2008 1:26 pm Thanks Everyone
We ended up going with the lighter tile. The tiler should be laying it today. I think it is a better match as well. Hopefully our build will move quickly now the kitchen is in and tiling has finished.

Good choice with the lighter tile for the balcony. I'm so jealous, want to see our house at that stage! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Built the Nevada 42 Next project - landscaping!

Although if you had heard the discussion between DH and the SS today you wouldn't be at all envious . The closer to the end you get the further it seems away. Congrats HTB! Re: BUILDING update 357Jul 17, 2008 8:35 pm It's coming along HTB.
We went there today and they've finished patching the gyp rock and building the fireplace. I am a bit surprised at some of the odd decisions made by the tradies. They put the downstairs access point directly over our dining table which means I won't be able to get a feature light . We've got a dble shower but it doesn't look like its been plumbed for two showerheads and there is only one mixer . There are a few other minor issues relating to the tiles but they've told us they'll get fixed. I WON'T be moving in until it is all 100% perfect no matter how desperate we are to be in our own home. Floors will go in end next week before the painting is finished which will be interesting. Looks like they only have the painting to do, balustrades, door furniture, basins and fixing up our requests. It is slow, but it is happening. Patience is a virtue my DM tells me . Re: BUILDING update 358Jul 17, 2008 8:37 pm Oooo I'm excited to see all those little bits like the balustrades go in Dy!!
You have been very patient! I would be chomping at the bit Not long to go! Good on you for making sure it is 100% perfect!! My karma ran over your dogma Re: BUILDING update 360Jul 17, 2008 8:42 pm Paula DeeElle They put the downstairs access point directly over our dining table which means I won't be able to get a feature light . Bl**dy men dont they think of these things... Fools! and DH thought I wouldn't notice . Thanks for your reply. I will just wait and see I guess.
