Tiles almost completed

Fair bit of work this week. Tiles almost completed, and looking very nice. The light coloured floor tiles in the wet areas have made the rooms seem larger. The vertical highlight tiles also help to make the rooms seem larger. The white tiles have a slight wave to them creating a nice finish. Tiling should be completed this week and painting can start next week. The large soap dishes look impressive.

Bath is not huge, but sufficent for our needs.  No bath in the ensuite.   

The Ensuite has a slightly different highlight to fit with it's smaller size.  Again the light floor tiles really work well here.

The powder room is nice and light even with just natural light.  There will be a large mirror over the powder area making it seem even larger.  Benchs are dark brown- here still in protective wrapping.

The laundry is looking very nice!  Who would have thought it would look this flash.

The pool needed professional cleaning and more than one visit.  Yesterday the was our second visit and the pool is almost looking like new.

This is the laundry we based our final design on.

Loved the inbuilt washer design giving a single flat bench top. Specified washing machine taps to be mounted below the bench and providers fitters with a copy of required dimension for our machine- our bench will be a bit higher and deeper than standard. Having the washing machine next to the wall should allow for capture of grey water from washing later on.

The in built hamper seemed a good idea so we specified one of those too. The wall behind will be strengthened to allow for overhead mounting of a cloths dryer.
