Tiling underway

Whilst the Painters finish the other areas of the house, the tiler has been in and laid some tiles! I am very happy with the tiles we have chosen. Our Laundry tub was also installed. We were unable to get photos of the en suite as the tiler was still hard at it.

Kitchen & Vanity Photos

I was lucky enough to get into our build to get photos whilst the carpenters were finishing up the skirting boards. Here are some pics of the vanities and Kitchen.

Garage Door and Gas

They have installed our garage door and gas meter. This must mean they successfully found the gas line, as the last we heard was they couldn't find it. I haven't been able to get in to the house to take some more photos of the kitchen and vanities just yet as nobody has been on site when I have visited. But I shall keep trying.

Kitchen & Vanity

Our Kitchen cabinets and Vanities in the En-suite and bathroom has been installed.
Again I hope someone is working at the site tomorrow to get in to get some photos.

Kitchen Plans

We have received our draft kitchen plans today, and even though they are in draft form everything appears to be correct so we wont be changing much if anything at all.
We decided to go with the under bench oven and separate cook-top to make it easier to replace in the long run, if it fails. We also added an upgrade to the kitchen which includes the matching pantry and an appliance cupboard.
We changed the location of the sink and dishwasher to prevent the dishwasher door interfering with the oven door when they are both open.

Colour Update

We had our Kitchen/Vanity appointment and mad a few colour changes. We changed the vanity tops and the kitchen cupboard colours, which I have updated on our Colour Selection post. I have also added a picture of our glass splashback which we changed from Latte to Antique White.

I will post more on the Kitchen once we receive the plans back.

Colour Selection

We have signed the building contract with Wisdom which meant we can start on all the little details of the house like colour, kitchen, electrical plan etc.

We met with Bianca to discuss and choose colours for the exterior of the house, kitchen, bathroom. Here are some of the colours we have chosen so far. We will add the rest as we go.

(Some of these colours may not truly represent the exact colour. They are only samples taken from online and some photos. It is as close as we can get for now,)
