Thursday 15 August 2013: Splashback Tiles

Received a phone call today from Di Loreno advising us that the splashback tiles we selected is out of stock and to come and reselect the tiles for the kitchen and Butlers pantry.

Saturday 17 August 2013: Reselect Splashback Tiles

So went off today to select the splashback tiles for the kitchen and Butlers Pantry. Our original tiles were polished porelain with same colour grout and the required quantity is 2.2 sqm, which costed us $150 for the tiles, grout and laying.

We tried to get something close to our selection, but as there was not many for selection, we decided to go with the feature tiles, which is $45 for 300x300 sheet. The quantity required is 25 sheets (25 sheets x $45 less Builders Allowance $33 per sqm (2.2sqm = #72 and labour for tiling $189) which came up to $1091.20.
