Tiles have been locked ...

The house is almost three-quarter complete and a lot has moved since my last post. We have met and sealed the tile requirements – some pretty tough choices. Casaview has a pretty extensive range of tiles to select, covering different sizes, colour, texture and make for all living areas, wet areas and external. The Bennelong display home at Gledswood Hills uses a really beautiful dark greyish porcelain but because we weren’t too keen on polished porcelain, we chose a similar product in matt finish, for a tad bit extra.

We also had to pay for a premium grout as the standard white that was provided wasn’t satisfactory and from experience they are harder to manage. It’s worth mentioning, that unlike many other builders, Casaview provides metal edging/trims for bathtub hobs and if a niche exists within the design as standard. It looks much nicer than the PVC ones that discolour over time, especially near bathtubs due to continual drenching.

Here's hoping the final look and feel of the tiles laid out is satisfactory.
