Hi Red Brick
We have used raw blackbutt (90 mm wide) boards in our Villina, both downstairs in the living room and throughout most of the upstairs. Upstairs was easy:…

Hi pacificisis, I tried replying to your second PM twice but it's still not showing up in my sent messages. My building inspector is Craig Hutchinson, Craig's Building Advisory Service,…

Hi Dani, love your carpet. I see the brand but do you know the colour? I am struggling to find a grey i like. I have seen a few nice…

WOW what a house! It is going to have such a commanding presence when it is finished. It looks HUGE. Love the bricks BTW.

Wow Dani, your slab looks huge. I got a topic reply notification for your topic today which is really weird because I haven't had one for this or the M…

Welcome to the forum Mike, great to have another villina builder. Which facade are you having? Would love to see your plans. Did you relocate the main bathroom upstairs?

Ahh, the edit button. I remember it now. I had to hold down the space bar for a long time to get to it, lol
Thanks Vatche.

Can you tell me how to do that. I have tried without success
