Reply to: Just posted this in the March thread but I'll copy it here to carry over: You guys are very kind! Here are the specs/selections for my kitchen stuff: @mtpo - here's what I can gather together on my selections for the kitchen As I mentioned, cabinets are Windsor White shaker cabinets from a company called Koch Cabinets. If you happen to be in central Virginia, our vendor is Chesapeake Bay Cabinet Company. They've been great. The island is that same cabinet maker but in their Driftwood finish. I don't have a good photo of the counter tops yet but they are Technistone Noble Areti Bianco(white quartz with subtle veins) Sink faucet is Delta Trinsic Pull Down in Arctic Stainless This is the kitchen sink The backsplash tile is called "Par Avon" by Crossville. The color number is HWR05, and obviously we did it in the 3x6 picket shape, but we debated doing the gothic picket shape for a while too. This brochure has all the details. Our local tile vendor in central Virgina is Mosaic Tile Co. Flooring is red oak stained on site with Minwax Weathered Oak. Not water popped, just applied per instructions and a satin poly applied on top. These are the pendants over the island (very dusty in my photo due to construction dust obviously) Wall paint color is Sherwin Williams Eider White. Trim paint is Sherwin Williams Pure White. More photos of kitchen. The ones without the backsplash installed are before counters and before floor staining. I'll post more photos when the backsplash is done and the clutter is off of the counters (should be in the next day or two!)

Reply to: I asked our local tile guru and this was his response.... It's called Ecaille and is a water jet pattern. It's a french limestone. If you need a source, let me know and I can send you his contact info...he does work all over the country. Good luck...it's beautiful!

Reply to: another vote for PGT. Even if not in Miami-Dade county, I would use Miami-Dade compliance as my threshold for impact resistant doors and windows.

Reply to: Here are pictures of the Canyon Ridge Collection faux wood garage doors. https://www.clopaydoor.com/canyonridge They can be painted or stained and you can choose from three woodgrain species - Mahogany, Clear Cypress, and Pecky Cypress. The doors do require a clear coat of polyurethane every couple years depending on the exposure. They are molded from actual boards and hand assembled for a realistic appearance. Dealers are located throughout the US and Canada .https://www.clopaydoor.com/where-to-buy/residential

Reply to: Here is a new house. There are numerous bits of this house that can be critiqued (siding on the dormers, dormer windows too small, some bits that don't match the style, etc.) but this house doesn't feel fake. It's cohesive. If feels much more sturdy and long-lasting than a cheap house with an obviously fake front glued on it and materials stuck here and there for no reason.
