Nice kitchenware! The sink looks expensive. Could cost much more if its Australian brand.
Does M allow customers to provide their own sinks? Or you did some work to make them agree?

Ebay/online ones can be good quality, just make sure they are 304 SS and at least 1.2mm thick. Which eBay seller you order it from? Also for those looking for a sink, get a 10mm radius sink rather than 0 radius sink so you easily clean the corners. With your internal steps, what material are you planning to cover the steps with? Timber? I have 400mm difference or 2 steps and will use timber but not sure what type of steps, I think i will have sharp corners without a bull nose but I'm not the timber floor installers will finish it off. Funny you mention that about the sinks. I got the 1.2mm thickness, r10 rounded edges... It was from seller OZbathroom. Very good stuff. Not sure about the stairs yet. I'm in two minds. Either I get the buikder to make them from MDF and have the floor guy cover them, or get my builders stairs guy to build them out of hardwood and stain them to match. If we end up doing parquetry it might be hard to cover them so perhaps might get hardwood with square edges as you said. Not sure yet. Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons style build: SLA 190Jul 08, 2017 9:45 pm If I'm not mistaken I think I hold the record on homeone for longest time taken for a slab. Rain delays and site complexity didn't work in my favour. 3 months and 1 day. 4 separate pours and lost count of how many cubic M of concrete...FINALLY slab was finished today!! I'm really happy the builders concreter was amazing. My son had a ball watching the concrete truck today Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons style build: SLA 191Jul 08, 2017 11:24 pm To be fair, the challenges of your plot would crush most builders.

I've been in awe of the quality in preparing the slabs Cheers Steve. Yeah me too. I asked 5 or 6 builders about our plans and only 2 said they would be prepared to even look at it! Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons style build: SLA 193Jul 09, 2017 12:15 am Yay, finally! Great news Chris and exciting I'm sure to finally see the whole slab.

Hopefully things will start to pick up pace now with the frame...get them to finish you garage first...you'll need all that space to store your purchases Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons style build: SLA 196Jul 10, 2017 9:04 am sinbox Congratulations on the final slab pour!

Builder recons the garage will be the LAST thing they do so they don't get blocked off with site access. Re: Sloping & Narrow block: Modern Hamptons style build: SLA 197Jul 12, 2017 9:55 pm Frame/timber delivered. Slowly getting there now. The section they started on is the living room which has 3m high ceilings.... Interesting to see perspective of how high it is.
