New week, new outlook!

It's only the first day of a new week, but things are certainly looking up. We had some fairly significant plumbing issues last week and to MDJ's credit they were all fixed first thing this morning. Our tiler and painters were also on site today and have obviously been busy. We were so relieved to see the water inlet for our shower fixed so quickly and the waterproofing will be touched up tomorrow morning so the tiler can continue as planned. 

Speaking of tiles, some of the wall tiling went on today and it looks amazing. Even half finished its even better than we envisioned. Our tiler rang today to talk about the grouting for our charcoal ensuite tiles which was a huge relief as I've been worrying about using misty grey grout on charcoal tiles. We were never given a choice of grouts at colour selections, but both ourselves and the tiler agree that a dark grout is the way to go on the ensuite floor. This makes me relieved and excited at the same time.

Other highlights include the second coat of stain to our Lin one doors - wow they are fabulous! So glad we worked with the beautiful wood that is already there and enhanced it with the clear gloss. 
Happy days, here's hoping the dramas are over! 

Bathroom tiles (very poor lighting for photos today).
       
                     

Our glorious ensuite tiles (again terrible light, but it is glorious trust me)

    1. Thanks Ann :) I was actually admiring your colour choices earlier this evening - love the dark tiles and feature in your shower nook. The black grout definitely looks right, I think it makes the floor look more uniform and sleek.

      No PCI date as of yet. I think once the kitchen is in and the last coat of paint is on then they will give us something.
