Pennykate that's so disappointing that you've have a bad experience it's meant to be a really exciting time!
We are also supplying our own vanities but were told at the…

Hi Dance mum,
At our colour selection we were told the white plastic grates were standard, maybe with the jazz package they were included?
To upgrade it cost us $30 per…

Hi Impoze,
Is it a year since they started at the tender stage with Beechwood? Because I would say that's about right with all of the logistics of building a…

Hi Samara,
We had the same thinking as you, just changing the vital things then leave the res until after we're building a merlot 4 with Terazza too!

Hi Wiz,
You should have chosen this at colour selection, you could choose to either go with the standard which were like white/ off white porcelain fittings or have the…

I was wondering does the 28 day count down to them starting start once the contract is signed or when they receive the letter of commencement from the bank?

Hi Fingerscrossed,
You deal directly with BW for all colour choices except the internal tiles.. You will need to add the door to your tender before it gets sent to…

Hi,

Thanks Wiz, something I might need to think about before our colour appointment!!
Fingers crossed, I'm pretty sure all the fees are included you just need to pay the $5500 when…

Hi Wiz,
Was wondering approx. how much was it to upgrade to the timber look garage door??

Hi Jazzyad,
BW don't ask for payment until your happy to have the plans drawn up. It's the complete price in the sense you don't make any upgrades whatsoever after that,…

Will definetly be supplying our own vanities if this is the case! Your right about the standard vanitites i think they age the bathrooms.

Yes it's probably to do with different offices handling the tender, maybe their trying to get more money out of us because we didn't make many variations haha
I was thinking…

Hi Wizard,
I'm not sure thats the reason, we're slightly ahead of pennykate and our tender was done in April.
Can i ask what sort of vanities are you having??

Yes thats the same as ours hmm i may have to question why we are being charged a bit more for the same thing.
We were thinking of doing that…
