I think i might change it to gloss eheheh Does the sealer on the floorboards smell really bad??? Re: Doonks' World by CC Designer Homes - Builder says 14/11/ 84Nov 08, 2012 7:06 pm Well, they will dry to semi-gloss. They were only done today and are still wet. High gloss floors are also high maintenance floors. They are poly sealed not water based, and no matter who your talk to, they both have pros and cons. I took the pics through the glass doors at the back, but I could clearly smell the fumes through the walls and doors.

WOW, it's done. Caulking finished yesterday, carpets were laid today, hot water service installed. But no keys yet, there's some necessary paperwork to be completed, building surveyor final inspection, bank final valuation. Frustrating, but necessary. 240 days, 8 months in round figures. Pretty stoked with that. In for Chrissy which was our main game. We're very happy, we think we made some good choices, particularly with the builder. And maybe we had some good fortune along the way. Gimme those keys, and get outta my way!!!

Your kitchen is just gorgeous..... Are you happy you went with semi gloss finish on your floors instead of a matt finish? Im debating still in my head what i should do Re: Doonks' World by CC Designer Homes - COMPLETED!!! 92Nov 14, 2012 7:21 pm Yes Mary, we are very happy. We should get our keys next Wednesday so I will post something a little more accurate then regarding the floors, but we're very happy with the finish as it stands right now.
