Good! We have picked up our builders key so we can paint and get our flooring done. Then to hand the key back and wait for the bank to value…

Hi Aussie,
Yes we got a sample sent out to us before I made the decision. And we will be installing ourselves.
We ordered the elite block out roller blind in…

We ordered our block out roller blinds from half price blinds also and they are already here. They look amazing and we got such a good price so super happy.
Still…

Our SS called me to let me know beforehand that the house wasn't finished, so not to expect that.
It went well picked up on heaps of things that needed to…

PCI tomorrow!! Highly doubt the house will be ready for it though. Snuck in on Satursay and there's still no power point covers and lights in some areas, still no…

From Half Price Blinds, found them on Google. Ooh will do thanks!

Whats everyone's thoughts, just over $600 for 8 blockout roller blinds? Then putting curtains on the remainder of the windows.
Is that expensive? Never looked at blinds before and don't want…

Our Slab went down in June so 10 months but handover will be around the 11 month mark!

PCI booked for April 21st, proposed 22nd so both myself and my partner can attend. Exciting times

Still another 3 - 4 weeks away unfortunately we have been told. There's not much to do so they obviously can't get trades back. We then have a few weeks…

Garage grano finally done!! Regretting some colour choices. The door colour we picked blends right in with the render I hate it. Looks like the boyfriend will be spray painting…

Pretty much everything above ak11, except the shower screens, downstairs bathroom basin and the appliances are in except something is missing from the rangehood there was a sticky note

You must have stole all of my trades! Yay for loads of work done. It's looking great

Still not much done, shower screens and mirrors in. Not too sure what's happening!!

So close yet so far, still so much to do and they seem to be moving at a snails pace!
Still won't tell me a PCI date, have requested one today.…

Just a little update, not a lot has happened the past two weeks.
A few electrical finals (faceplates etc) and the oven and cook top are in.

Ak11 - yeah I'd rather do it ourselves and use the money elsewhere!

MrsJM - All the grouting has done is put white grout into where the cracks were. You can still see it, but there's nothing that can be done about it…

Just a little update:
Tiling is now complete
Appliances have been delivered
Final plumbing installations have commenced
Will upload photos of tiling
Still to do:
Fix cornices and install…

Yay for progress!!!

Mandy + Steve I specifically told the site supervisor I was worried about chips etc, he said he had his best tiler on the job which worries me, because I…

Only thing is when the tiler cut the tiles we have all little chips in them it looks horrible

Thank you mzjska!
Aussie141414 - we only got the one wall in both bathrooms with the feature tile full height! They wanted to charge us a rediculous amount to get it…

Some more tile progression as well as our stone bench tops being installed, yay

Thanks for the advice! We are putting in white overheads and cabinets. I will have to be careful what top I put in then. Will definitely speak to someone about…

This is true archetto, just see how I go. Not a forever home so I shouldn't be so picky haha.

In person they have a purple tinge, so horrible. My boss told me he likes them though. I suppose its everyones personal taste! I'm thinking end of March!! Things seem…

oh thank god mandy+steve!! Will look so much nicer.

So a little story with our laundry / toilet tiles. We thought we went with the same tile as the bathroom (the singular tile pictured) but we didn't then it…
