I really struggled with the concrete colour and design. Not having a garage, being able to park two cars off street and be able to back each one out independently was really important!
Anyway - the design we've come up with is looking good. I need to speak to them about a miniscule kink on the left hand side - but other than that we're good to go!
Also had a change in the colour. I was quoted on 'Galaxy' which the concreter assured me was the right match for our house (they were going to add 50% black stone). But I was never 100% convinced. I didn't want to go too dark.
So after chatting with the guys there today, I have changed to 'Outback'. I think the reds/browns/greys/sand colours will complement the shades of the house better. Thoughts?
Was going to go 'Galaxy' with 50% black stones.
Now planning to go 'Outback' instead.
Just waiting on the final cost variations to sign off on - and hopefully at the end of the week they'll pour!
I prefer the outback, the galaxy really is very dark. Considering you have no black colours in the house, the outback is a far better match. It's very similar to mine.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely the Outback, the Galaxy would pull it down too much I think.
ReplyDeleteYep, outback was a good decision
