Congrats MartinsHarmony! Good luck with your build

Hmmm been away so long and the forum gets a facelift!!
How are you all!? How was your Christmas and New Year festivities?? Hope you're all doing well

Great news marina12. I kinda blame the air con company for not bringing all this to your attention at the planning stage, though it's M's fault for engaging in…

Similar to Gibson, our upstairs floors were exposed to the elements for many months. It was a tad wonky around the joins and squeaky in a particular place due…

Afternoon peoples!!! Sorry I've been MIA. You know when you've been gone a long time when the website changes its look!!!
Congrats to those…

Forgot to mention that the "L" shape lounge, and the rest of our back room furniture came from Custom Design. Love their furniture.

Great pictures guys. Love seeing the progress.
We bought our furniture from Oz Designs (4-5 seater and a lie down bit joined together "loosely") for theatre room... and 2x2 seater in…

Villinaeliters - We had the lighting done by someone after handover. The affected areas... outside lights are the upside down cylinder types and inside are down lights. We know the…

Umm no Sandra2016 but they will fix it up. We had similar issues with ours being full of sh!t and broken etc but they fixed it.
So after a tradies…

Mgardz - yes our grout has been discoloured too in the bathrooms. Did mention it to warranty dude. The standard stuff used isn't as good as the stain resistant grout.…

Same here Villinaeliters, we all put jumpers and slippers on when we go to the kitchen for breakfast especially during weekdays. Our kitchen doesn't keep the heat which is…

S-VE - the upgrade was over $9k for Nickel Flash so not too bad. We're really happy with the carpet and it's Australian not American so always happy to promote…

Carpet - we went with Redbook (?) from Carpet Court. Fantastic stuff. Love it. Not sure if it's considered expensive. Harvey has an equivalent American brand I think called Smart…

NJC - Congrats!!
MGardz - Fantastic news about PCI. Hopefully you'll be in your home in no time and will love it. The biggest reason why I love our…

I still as yet to read the 199 other posts. Anyone have a summary of what I've missed the past few weeks? …

I've come to say "hi" and catch up on nearly 200 posts and I've only read the last page... CONGRATS on your baby!! …

I am very surprised, but you’re right, I should know better!!
MGardz –Maybe for someone in M having no shower, or being able to…

Edmondss - You have same configuration as us. Cr@p... argh

Thanks Buildersbob. That's what I feared. Their standard drawer depth being 480mm but they don't draw it on the plans so it's anyone's guess until it's too late. I never…

Ps... for those that have completed kitchens how deep are your drawers and how deep is your bench that holds the drawers?

Ejmack - Good luck with colour choices. We chose to tile to ceiling with M. It looks great. Can't recall on costs. We must've spent at least $60k on upgrading…

I second S-VE's comment Fisher75... don't let them push you around. It may result in delays but one that is worth it if stuff is being installed incorrectly. Our floor…

Thank you Well I did look at the handover folder when I got it then lost interest in it when we prepared for our move then it got…

Fisher75 – How’s the brick laying issue going?
S-VE – M seem to want more business, so many ads on the radio for M lately. Tap on a balcony, never…

Fisher75 – I wouldn't like that brick work and would send it back. It looks like they started some sort of blending then gave up as they went further…

Villinaeliters – I've always thought about getting a plumber in to lift the max temperature of our HWS but I'm not sure if they would all do it, being that…

Oh then they must come standard without any tiling above the basin. I thought it would be tiled being a wet area. Goes to show what I know.…

Our old house had a controller maxed at 55 degrees. This one one is 50. Nanny state will make is zero one day!! This is a topic along with limited…

Not sure GillyM. We've had 2 instantaneous HWS in the past few years and both have had a panel. I don't see why as ours is always maxed out. I…
