It does tie in beautifully with the door. It creates a flow from the portico through the door & into the living. If it were me I'd leave it just like that. It adds a real statement to the otherwise quite monotone colour scheme. It's awsome!! Of course it's up to you just adding my two cents Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4283Sep 06, 2017 8:36 pm Oh yay!! It all looks amazing!! So freaking excited for you!!

Your home looks great. I bet it feels surreal! Enjoy your weekend of moving and a nice soak in that big tub Thanks AB!! I forgot to get photos of our ensuite with the freestanding bath, the glass hadn't been changed yet, apparently thats happening today so I think that's half the reason I didn't take photos Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4294Sep 07, 2017 7:17 am vonsta76 I like that stain colour cb! And I didn't realise but your colour schemes are very very similar to mine. I didn't notice you had pretty much the same kind of tile as me too! Coral Homes Avoca 25 in Gainsborough Greens Gold Coast Viewtopic.php?f=31&t=81406 [/quote] Thanks Von, the stain isn't bad it's just brighter and seems a little orange but I think another coat might do it justice. The photo seems to make the stain look darker than what it is. I didn't notice either Von, I just went and had a quick Squizzy at yours and we do have a very similar scheme also I remember loving your tiles little did I know I picked similar we must have great taste Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4295Sep 07, 2017 7:21 am JayaJaya I'm so happy for you , really so happy! That stain on the timber partition is livable, if not what you wanted... ther's plenty of good black varnish on the market if you want it changed. Why didn't they do it black? It all looks lovely... Yaaaaay You! Thanks Jaya!! It's liveable it's just brighter than what I would have liked... I did ask to have them stained dark, the front door, timber wall and cladding but the SS had them stain in merbau because it would have looked odd with the garage door couldn't be bothered to fight him on it but I did let him know unless he his paying the mortgage for his clients he has no say and should keep his mouth shut when clients have a request Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4296Sep 07, 2017 7:22 am Caydenn I was told by our colour selection agent that builders generally apply 1-2 coats of stain to the doors which isn't even close to enough. She suggested going to buy a tin and re-do the door after handover and you will be amazed by the result. Thanks, I think I will need to add a couple more coats because it's just a bit bright Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4297Sep 07, 2017 7:23 am WifeofHunza So happy for you CB! The screen looks great, but you can always paint it more later. Thanks WoH, I think I will add another couple of coats Re: Charlibear's Build - Week 33 - Keys 8/9 YAY!! 4298Sep 07, 2017 7:25 am klea Looks fantastic cb! I like the timber screen colour. Were you after like a Japan black like quite dark? Can definitely be done again down the track but pity they didn't ask! I can see how a blacker/not so merbau tone would work better with all your interior finishes. Your corner sliding doors look great too and make the living area really lovely. What great photos. Glad you can get the lights changed after handover. My handover is all just waiting on the install of some flyscreen doors which could've been done after. It doesn't mean it's not practically complete, and I'd love to get in!! I wanted black Japan or walnut stain, the SS stained it Merbau because he thought it tied in better with the garage door and wanted to keep all the timber a uniform colour Can't believe you are only wait for flyscreens I hope they get their butts into gear!!
