Both of our new doors have finally been installed...
and with the Tri-lock.
The garage ceiling has been painted...
...and so has the window surround.
The painters have also laid some coats of paint on all the internal walls, ceiling and doors too! The paint colour for the walls is half strength Chalk Beige and the architraves and skirting will be the same colour but in gloss.
Here is the Family room...
and here are the doors all lined up like dominoes all painted.
This is a shot of the Master Bedroom.
It would appear also that after the PD quality inspection they have had to rectify a few items. The entry to the WIR has been ripped off and replaced with new edging.
The holes in the corridor walls have been patched.
The Master bedroom cornice has also been ripped off one of the walls too.
Our replacement cabinets have also been installed as well...here is the ensuite unit.
And here is the bathroom unit.
Hang on, Did he say 'Replacement' cabinets?
Yes, ALL of our cabinets have been replaced.
Late last year when we were looking at what options we wanted to include, we had budgeted to get the 2mm ABS edging applied to all of the cabinets as this is a more durable surface than the standard laminate edge. As we have this in our current kitchen, we can appreciate its value and appearance, and wanted to make sure we had it in our new home as well. When we went out to Hopetoun we were told that it was standard and would be included on all cabinets - we thought 'Yippee' - a small saving our way!
When the cabinets were installed two weeks ago, we noticed that they did not have the ABS edging as expected. Several disgruntled phone calls and emails later, PD have come to the party and honoured their word and replaced ALL of the cabinets with the ABS edging including all the doors, drawers and end panels.
I have included some pictures below of the before and after cabinets showing the difference. Suffice to say we are much happier now :-)
This is without the ABS edging.
And these are the new cabinets with the ABS edging.
