There are many mixed reports on Metricon, a lot of it comes down to your SS, the other bit is distinguishing what is standard and what is an upgrade! (but that is the same with a lot of builders). Blogs are one of the best ways to get an idea of whether they are the builder for you.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-26178005828388374392012-08-04T01:24:51.698+10:002012-08-04T01:24:51.698+10:00Congrats on your new home!!

I am glad our colours seemed to have worked out ok, all bar the balcony balustrade and front, it is a lot trickier than I thought it would be to match things up. The mushroom colour tiles in the wet areas were the Portofino range ceramic which were standard in the Metricon promo at the time but I cannot find them on the net anymore :-( they were everywhere when I was researching them, so maybe they are not stocked anymore, I can't remember the colour off the top of my head, the code was MAXFL and then a number. <br /><br />I would have to double check, I don't have a soft copy but pretty sure these are our floor tiles to refer to:<br /><br />http://www.nationaltiles.com.au/ntstore/productdetails.php?catid=7&itemid=298&skuidx=NT11-505FL COLORADO CREAM GLOSS<br />Code: NT11-505FL<br />Colour: CREAM <br />Body: PORCELAIN<br />Use: INTERNAL, FLOOR & WALL<br />Dimensions: 450X450<br /><br /><br />We haven't tried the garage yet as we don't have the driveway in and don't have a 4wd, but I think I will be taking the garage that you drive straight into and Rick can have the one you have to curve around lol! I think a lot will depend on how the driveway is shaped. Good luck with your colour choices!!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-45121828511750401562012-08-04T01:03:05.254+10:002012-08-04T01:03:05.254+10:00Thanks, I love it too!! can't wait to light so...Thanks, I love it too!! can't wait to light some candles and pour some bubbly an relax!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-70545828358344859472012-08-04T01:02:16.079+10:002012-08-04T01:02:16.079+10:00Thanks guys, yeah it has felt like forever and our...Thanks guys, yeah it has felt like forever and our neighbours moved in 3 months ago now so it seems like a long build, but then you guys and Nat have really suffered :-( so I think we ended up somewhere in between which isn't too bad of a result.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-91082173836019717142012-08-04T00:59:55.873+10:002012-08-04T00:59:55.873+10:00I don't have your will power :-( whenever I co...I don't have your will power :-( whenever I could I cleaned the tiles, my theory is that I didn't pay to upgrade to white grout only to end up with grey grout by the time we move in! And also all the stones and dirt on the tiles leave scratches and although I could ask them to replace them at PCI I would feel a bit petty doing it for a minor scratch but it is those minor scratches that annoy you every time mop the floor....well that was my justification behind it..Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-48858634974832123722012-08-04T00:52:24.331+10:002012-08-04T00:52:24.331+10:00Thanks Em, we are loving it too!Thanks Em, we are loving it too!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-8411669061820651012012-08-02T18:38:11.218+10:002012-08-02T18:38:11.218+10:00Hi just started following your blog recently as in...Hi just started following your blog recently as interested in Metricon builds as they are a newish builder in SA.

It looks better than we had imagine!! I LOVE the glass balustrade!! I am trying to convince my hubby :) The carpet looks great and the ensuite and so does the kitchen. We have gone with similar colours! Have you tried getting the cards into the garage yet? We have been told it will be a little tricky....oh well. I wanted to ask you what kind of tiles you have selected for kitchen and bathrooms?? We are in the process of finalising our choices...<br />All the best!!!

It is very similar to the excitement of getting married I think, you spend so long planning it and then even when it's upon you, you still have so much to do! The only thing with weddings is, there is no landscaping afterwards and you get a holiday lol, somehow this is just as satisfying but in a different way. It has been a very long 8 months, but compared to some it's not long and others who are in within 5-6 months it is, exciting all the same!!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455676414097390512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-578296594717431513.post-52917819864254163952012-08-01T20:37:45.897+10:002012-08-01T20:37:45.897+10:00OH MY GOD!
