Painting Started

We stopped by last weekend to see if anything had been done on the outside, I am eagerly awaiting to see when the downpipes will go on so that some of the flooding that happens around the house can be avoided during the downpours. Water obviously isn’t great for foundations.

We found the painters busy at it on a Saturday, whilst we didn’t want to bother them we couldn’t resist the urge to ask for a quick peak inside. They were happy to give us a quick walk through which was nice of them. Not wanting to take up too much of their time or get too into their faces, I took a few happy snaps and left.

Will have to arrange a walk through soon… but don’t want to drag our site supervisor out for no reason.

Internal color is white for doors and trim, and Taubmans smooth pebble for the walls. Looks nice and earthy.

Exterior is all white for eaves, and Dune for the moroka'd front porch.

Tiling Completed

Tiling has been completed and the tiler was actually nice enough to send me some photos of there work. They had called me to see if I would be dropping off the Alfresco tiles or not for some reason !

The wall tiles are all Cotto Trio Flax Gloss
The feature in the niches are sliced pebbles
and the floor tiles are all DL10254 not sure what the name of this tile is.

We did order additional wall tiles and will be attempting to do floor to ceiling after handover, i'll update on how this goes.
