So, I thought I'd check back in to see how you're going......and I find you now have a start date! Congrats!

Hey Renee, I can help with a couple. We had the entry tiled at a 45 degree. Cost us $80 for the tiler & Coral said that they…

Um - no, they were an upgrade from Coral Karen......we picked them in the finished appointment.

Nah, we supplied all the fans & just had the sparky fit them. We got all our stuff from Wide World of Lights at Morayfield. Except for that…

Okay, we don't really have too many good ones, I'll try & get some on the weekend. These ones aren't bad though.

My appologies ladies. There really isn't much to update you on though......except for maybe the carpet & fly screens. Excuse my ignorance (of which I've got plenty), but…

Thanks Rebekah. We couldn't find a feature tile we liked to match the floor tile, so we thought we'd just lay the normal tile differently. We're very happy…

Just a couple more pics.
Entrance........our only extra tiling cost - $80 for the 45 degree angle

20/07…

You'll probably get that today. Our SS seems to do his invoicing (at least submits them to HO) on Wednesdays. We then get it in the mail on…

Lookin good Jess.......what is it with 2 year olds and measuring? I can't bring the tape measure out at all at the house without our's wanting to "help".
Speed is…

Sorry Jess - in hindsight it probably did have that note about it.......despite the fact I meant it in a "well, I'll be buggered" sort of way........and I'll thank you…

Bugger!
Let's hope that when they do start, they stay onsite & finish it! The plumber was due to start his fit off for us last Monday.......he didn't, then when…

The tiler did start Tuesday.......but he hasn't left. Not sure why the change in plan, but we are stoked none the less.
They also did a site clean…

Thanks Renee.
We were actually getting really excited about them both when it was looking as though we'd get the house before bubs. But now with them so close together........it…

So - actually got a call from the SS yesterday........highly unusual.
Tiler is starting today, apparently the Tiles will also be delivered today.....so I'm not sure how much he'll get done.…

I might PM you when I get some up Jess - I'm not trying to be cagey about the issue, I'm just very interested to see what the SS &…

Massive go slow now. No where near as happy as we were at the start. The progress in the 3 weeks since the tiler finished the wet areas…

I would comment....but considering our recent discussion RE colours in my thread, I think we all know where my taste in colour resides!

Whoa indeed. I think a visit to the start of this thread may have been in order before the "get used to it" remark. 9 business days isn't…

There you go - same as our little spawn of satan.

Happy days Rebekah.
10 or 11 weeks between slab & xmas break? Will be interesting to see how much your SS can get done.
I'm guessing that you'll be bloody close…

Anyway, the buld itself. As I said, we''ve slowed down big time. Possible handover date of 6 November. The plumber & Sparky are booked in for their…

Thanks Renee.........clearly you girls stick together

Absolutely Jess - It was 4 weeks for us between end of frame & start of tiling.
Awesome progress Jess - doesn't it give you the irrates that the process of…

......hmm - must be just me then.
Thanks for the comments all, always good to get some honest opinions. The wife will be stoked that I was serverely outnumbered

So - still don't have a shot after the final coat. But the wife took these after the first. The windows are classic cream, the same colour as…

So - we got a possible handover date today..........6 November.
Yeah, #2 is due about then.........time to think about the contingincies I think.
If it happens - it'll be 3 days over…

Thanks Ladies.
Careful what you wish for Rebekah

Yep - try & pull out of the deal with Coral........if the Tiler does good work, maybe ask him for his card.
Shop around & find a tile that you like…

Thanks guys. No doubt it will come together - just hoping it's together before #2
Rich Biscuit, Jess.
So - this is the inside, the exterior is having it's final coat…
