Just the house isn't ready and might be another 2-3 weeks. At lease the driveway was done today. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ [/quote] Hi J and A, Are you able to tell me how wide your driveway is at crossover and then at the house? We are thinking of doing the driveway like this and want to know if it will look like yours. Ours would be 4m at crossover and 5m at house. Thanks Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 11594Jul 04, 2015 5:01 pm Hi Wadedewilde, Crossover is about 4-4.5 Metre and the house is 5.6 Metre from memory.

Or you didnt? Did you inform mcdonald jones about putting a kickboard/plate? Pictures would also help Thank you in advance! Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 11596Jul 04, 2015 10:14 pm We had MJH do our flooring so cant help there, but just be mindful the Smeg 90cm freestanding oven does not come with a kickplate automatically. We are having a plinth made for ours due to a miscommunication about a kickplate that didn't eventuate so ask the question at colours to be sure.

I had a quick look at the australian smeg website and you can purchase a kick plate. But was just curious to how tiles would be done after handover once the cooker is in. I will definitely raise the question in colours. If anyone else has had this experience feel free to comment Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 11598Jul 04, 2015 11:25 pm Hey dunno if our experience helps at all but anyway... We are tiling after handover and also have the smeg apliances. .. we have the built in oven though However, i know for the dishwasher there is enough space for the tiles to go underneath it. Our appliances wont be installled until we ask them to be which wil be after our tiles are in Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 11599Jul 04, 2015 11:55 pm Nat and Dan Hey dunno if our experience helps at all but anyway...

I thought they would install the dishwasher and cooker right before handover and that it would be up to the owners to deal with it. Thanks Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 11600Jul 05, 2015 8:59 am Nope our ss said they dont like to put anythin in of value until right before u actually move into the hoise so we will handover with no appliances and have them installed when we are ready Hi AKG, We had a base tender of $592 for 31 squares from MC Donald Jones.
