And the doors

The front doors (PMAD04). The glass will be rice paper rather than the waterfall shown and it will be a different colour


Internal doors (Stanford)

Waiting, waiting....

Seeing as we are waiting for the bank and waiting for the demolition, I thought I would waste some time and post the door handles that we will be using.

Front door (double door)


Garage entry with deadbolt

Internal doors

All the handles will be in satin chrome - just couldn't get the pics of the right ones.

Demolition Update

Dropped by the house today. It was after dark so had to use a torch (power has been cut). Wanted to check whether they had removed the power meter as they had cut the power line. You would think that they would remove it when they cut the power line and they had..
Whilst I was there I decided to check the gas meter to see if Alinta had taken that away and they had done this too! What a surprise. It was suppose to take 10 days but obviously it was much less as the tag said the 26 June.
Also it looks like the demolition company has started to prepare the house for demolition.

Waiting again.

Another week pases by without word from the builder. Just waiting for them to get back to us with the final plans with all our pre-start changes. Back into the waiting game.

On the demolition front, I drove past the house this morning and the power has been cut to the house. I did not check whether they have removed the power meter but I guess that they would have done that at the same time. Just waiting for the gas meter to be removed but speaking to Alinta, it takes 10 days from application to removal so that is at least next Wednesday. Hopefully the demolition guys can get in straight away after that as council takes 14 days. So fingers crossed for a demolition by the 13th July. I'll post photos of the house tomorrow with the dangling power cable.

The bank is another matter though, waiting again for the bank to do valuations of the properties.
