Jlo everything is coming along so well. Looking great so far. Be good for you to get out of the parentals...
If I was in your situation I'd just buy…

Hi all
I've posted this in my new build thread also but wanted to post in here as well in case it grabs someones attention that may not look at the…

Can anyone help direct me to a recommended electrician in the Southwest of WA- Perth to Mandurah.
Hopefully a sparky that you have perhaps used for your home and found him…

Smiley
Plans look great. Well done and congratulations.
Not sure how you are going with working out electrical but I agree with Malsannie. You might be better using the money on conduits…

Trixee place is starting to come along nicely. Really looking forward to seeing your brickwork sprout out of the ground.

Glad to hear they have come up with a solution to the gap as it certainly wasn't acceptable. I'm surprised they advised against cavity sliders as I think they would…

Congratulations Smiley! Sounds like you and your daughter are embarking on an exciting journey with the build and no doubt she will have some input also.
Plan looks great. I would…

I was thinking I'd do them different colours anyway. But didn't even think about possible variation in batch colouring so might need to think long and hard before committing to…

Cheers Caraf88.
Handy to get an early idea of what to expect. You're right it is pretty costly but it seems most things related to building are especially options that…

Your home looks amazing. Your kitchen looks massive... So much bench space. Light colours also make it look so open and clean. Congrats on finally getting a date for PCI.…

Justin, Place is looking great. Bet you can't wait to sit back and enjoy your new purchases.
Any word on cabinets yet?

Hi Cara thanks for the feedback.
The meter box is shown on the plan as being on the left hand side, I didn't know about restrictions with retaining. I'll have…

Great colour scheme you have chosen. Is going to look really good.
Your splashback is going to look amazing.
How have you found Smart Homes in general?

Slab looking great Trixee... Bet it's a massive relief to finally have something that you can stand on and begin to visualise with.
Looking forward to watching it develop.

Floors look great Kelsey
Definitely need to think about the expansion, movement in the wood. Colour matched white scotia looks good and will be a good compromise.
Frustration though when you're…

Hi Trixee
Thanks I'm a bit worried how pricing will come out though. Trying to stick to a budget and finding it very hard when you factor in all the…

Rache place is looking fantastic and looking forward to seeing these tiles everyone is talking about... Kitchen looks really good. Looks like your planning on having some big cook ups.…

Hi JMCL. Design looks great and I bet you can't wait to move down to the greenery that looks to surround your block. Must be exciting for you to be…

haha they like to make a mess with water do they?

It's a delicate balance between living outside your means and enjoying what you've worked so hard for... Sometimes I figure I'd rather spend more now than have to spend double…

Google just proved you right Malsannie, years working in Indonesia has turned me off ever having something like that in a bathroom... I'll leave it at that.

Melsie your right and its so hard to visualise it off a plan and get the scale right. Have you thought of perhaps getting one installed in your WC now…

Actually quite like the first pic you posted with the shelf across as a built in, probably could have a larger basin and toilet and delete the bedaise...
(I think thats…

Thanks for that Malsannie, I'd not really considered that option and it does open it up a bit. Loss of storage probably won't really matter either as I'm not a…

Hi Scott_Michelle. Your plan looks great. Windows will be nice and light up the space, only have to think of how you'll be furnishing the room though. Definitely think you…

Place is looking fantastic Belzey... Saw this first thing this morning after work and thought Black for sure. Big investment... though if it's what you want you'll regret it if…

Thanks MalSannie it's a work in progress and like you planning is taking a very long time. But worth getting it right.

It's very difficult to plan and organise things when you or your partner work away so I can sympathise with you circumstances Jelbell.
Yeah Highbury Park is just on the…

Wow so much has happened and it sounds like things are getting sorted now.
Ididnt read Chris's response unfortunately though the response from the rest of the forum indicates it wasn't…

Place is looking great. Sounds like your SS is getting things organised and making up for lost time. Bet you both can't wait to get in though.
Alfresco looks great... Will…
