You're welcome. How far along are you with your building, I do remember your 'name' but don't remember the details! As far as the windows go, I don't think…

Hi Mozzi, I chose white as was originally going to go with black and then considered how that might look internally so went with 'can't go wrong, classic white'!!! …

Hi GinaUK yes I had already clarified what I meant see previous posting, my wording was not the best and realised after how it could have been read. Glad to…

Yes you can apply direct but you are not eligible for the extra $14K boost if you signed the contract with your builder before October (believe the exact date was…

Hi KF, if it makes you feel any better I had to choose render for our entire exterior (large single storey house with portico) that was just finished being built…

People may be interested to know that if they apply direct to revenue department and not through an agent for new builds that they are only eligible for the top…

Hi Kylie, no worries, re the glass it's called translucent laminate - bizarre name for glass I know but that's what it is and it looks opaque and totally smooth......Bet…

Hi Crissy & Kylie, just thought I'd mention to you that with Perrys you can also have the option of translucent laminate glass - when I had to choose our…

Weird my smilies never showed up! It was the clapping one and dancing one!!!!

Hiya Kylie, congrats on the progress of the house, just been catching up on your thread, it's looking great. Did laugh when I read about you crying when seeing the…

They look great, I'm definitely heading to Bunnings when we get back next week - just got to check those sizings and make sure they'll fit it's a great cheap…

Fantastic thread. Can you get the blackout ones as advertised on the redi shade website in Bunnings or is it just the light weight white/pale colours as I'm guessing these…

It's been a while since I posted because it's been insanely busy time. We have now booked our flights to return for our walk through on 19 December and completion…

Firstly Shy, welcome to the forum and god do I ever know how you feel! Do a search on Perrys here and you'll find other tales of woe and frustrations…

A search will certainly bring you loads of reading material, particularly Brad Mac. I don't think there is such a thing as the 'perfect builder' all seem to have issues,…

I like both but Colourbond was an extra $7000 so we stuck with tiles as we didn't feel strongly enough to stump up $7k when we could spend it elsewhere!

OK this might help did a google and hit some info albeit from an American sight but it's a starting point....... am pasting the lot below. Hope that helps Mr…

Hi Yvette, good to hear you're happy with quality. When you talk about the contract I'm guessing you're talking about delays for completion? If so how long were they over…

Oh a p.s. I forgot to add is I'm a great believer in single vanity in the ensuite - a double vanity just means double the amount of cleaning

Hi Kylie, Firstly the plan looks fantastic and I laughed when I read your comments about your man's help with colour selection - I think that is the standard when…

Depends on the builder. Our start date was supposed to be end of June according to our contract (building with Perrys) and the slab was only poured this week and…

It does, well done have flicked you off a quick reply, but running out door now so will touch base later
