Minor Update...

Bryan stopped by the build-site on his way to work and has called in with the following report (see how hungry I am for details!!)
  1. The windows have been put in - and yes our front windows are correct (now... the SS tells me that the company that pre-fabs the timber framing did stuff up the window measurements but these sections were redone and all is fixed);
  2. We've been wrapped - I'm waiting for the photos to see what colour we are now;
  3. The bricks have arrived - Bryan was a bit concerned that they weren't the right colour but we have rung the SS and both he and the supplier have confirmed that they are right - we'll have to wait and see how it pans out when the brickie starts tomorrow.
Bryan has taken photos but we'll have to wait until tonight for those. In the meantime, here are our external colours. I don't have an image of how they'll all look together apart from what's in my head and so far I haven't worked out how to download that - the USB cable just isn't doing it...
This is our facade (flipped so that the garage is on the left)

Hillcrest 2600

Our bricks - Red Gum by Austral with natural (grey) rolled mortar joints. Not our favourite, but this is about the only one we liked from the standard range and I really couldn't see the point in paying extra $$ for bricks!! (plenty of other things we'd rather spend our money on...)

Roof tiles - Barramundi in the Tudor Style from Monier (CSR Roofing)
BarramundiArray

Garage door - sectional lift with remote - in this style but in a dark charcoal colour - called monument (below)Colorbond Monument will be used for garage doors, gutters and fascias)


Window Frames - black
(it's just black - you don't need a picture of that surely!! :) )

Front door - Paperbark
