Our First home, building MainVue Amalfi 530

Hi Tasminnn,
Thanks, we love how the colours have come together. The wall paint is Grand Piano Half. While the kitchen and butlers both have Peppercorn Rent around the splashback.

I'd suggest your large hinges are for soft close options. While the other ones aren't.
Btw, your tiles in the shower look very familiar.

Hi Boysenberry,
Yep, we had a lot of issues at NHP. Most have been sorted out now. Still awaiting our bricks to be neutralized (again - stains are coming out), as…

Hi Megan! Hope you're well and settled in too. Telstra have to bore a line under our street to the phone exchange which is across the road. Bit frustrating, but…

Hi Jess,
Thanks! We're both really happy with how things have come together. We got our stools online at LivingStyle. I've attached a couple of pics of our dining setting. The…

Hi everyone.
Internet is about 5 weeks away, so apologies for no updates.
We've been in for nearly 4 weeks and are loving it. Had lots of follow ups in the first…

We settled! OMG, the amount of work our house had done in the last 7 days to fix up the gross errors we were presented with last week was amazing.…

Love your furnishing choices, Megan. Really love your coffee table and rug. They beautifully compliment your colour styling.
Are you fully unpacked yet?

Thanks Megan! We are very excited about tomorrow. So hopeful that everything is fixed from last week.
We're pretty much all packed and ready to go. Boxes are everywhere. LOL!

Thanks Megan. We're hoping things go well on Monday. I understand that the painters have been on site for the last two days, so surely things are fixed. We'll visit…

We have our final payment cheque in hand!! :z:
Provided the house is ready to go on Monday, we'll all be laughing.
In saying that, I had…

looks incredible, Megan! You must be really happy with the finished result.
Love it!!

Cool. I thought that might be the case (but given our recent experience with trades thought it could be another sub-par effort on their part).
You stools look great! It's so…

That NBN point you have above your phone points, is that just provisions for future NBN? Or is NBN already in your area?
We opted to have provisions for future NBN,…

Sounds great, Megan! Can't wait to see how your WIR looks.
How'd it feel waking up in the new place?

Looks great Chloea! Your trades are certainly doing a top job. :)

plasterers are an interesting bunch. Their attention to detail is generally not all there. I do recall that we felt our plaster was quite rough in a lot of areas…

at this stage we're settling at 10am. Our SS did say he's getting to our house first thing. So assume he'll be there after your place. We've got our blinds…

believe you me, Chloea. We are so angry! I'm just imagining what will happen if things aren't fixed properly by Monday.
My hubby is ready to explode at our SS.

I couldn't agree more with you, Josh. When I spoke to our SS about our shelves that didn't line up I asked "seriously, did the cabinet maker think that this…

Looks great Josh. The plaster will come up a treat. It's amazing how bad it can look at that stage. But before you know it, it's mint.

That's a real shame about the cleanliness of your house and yard. I'm sorry that you've experienced this. Based on mine and your experience at handover, it seems that MainVue…

Can honestly say we're beyond disappointed, Chloea. Just feels like a complete lack of care lately.
