As for the bricks, the brick companies will tell you that the differences in shading is all to do with the batch processing blah, blah, blah (I have a friend who works for a brick company)... if you REALLY want them all the same colour then yes, jump up and down and get them changed... BUT be warned it is often difficult to get exact matches apparently and you could be delaying your build. If you decide you don't need the stress don't get too upset about it... when the brickies actually start laying them they should be taking bits and pieces from different pallets to blend them all together... so the end product is actually quite a subtle, blended effect.Binxcat1https://www.blogger.com/profile/02273613507426538968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779645116868045578.post-57277097835805447292009-09-08T11:18:53.668+10:002009-09-08T11:18:53.668+10:00When I see them like this,I agree with all the oth...When I see them like this,I agree with all the otheres...

But if Ray and you have any doubts that you would regret going for the darker one, don`t do it and go with your original choice. If your choice is clearly indicated in the contract, go for it and if in the worst case scenario it cannot be corrected, a compensation should be in order. Hope it helps.Diane and Pierrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828522459196353185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779645116868045578.post-65291780064898982282009-09-03T11:10:00.785+10:002009-09-03T11:10:00.785+10:00I would deffinately be going to the brick company ...I would deffinately be going to the brick company and saying which you ordered.

Sometimes when they switch suppliers for ingredients for the bricks this results in a different color. Have you company investigate or you might have to go through picking out new bricks.Laura Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08367888926495201275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779645116868045578.post-75060413462888539752009-09-03T05:19:20.485+10:002009-09-03T05:19:20.485+10:00There is a huge difference in the shades.

One phone call and my father made them take it all down and start over. If you want the lighter color, than don't settle. This is your dream home. If you want-ask the builder if they have ever used that color brick and take a drive to see a house all done. Otherwise stick to your guns!!!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03926703682445820266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779645116868045578.post-27716362910218378092009-09-02T21:00:40.454+10:002009-09-02T21:00:40.454+10:00If the lighter is what you ordered, then that is w...If the lighter is what you ordered, then that is what you should have!!! Don't settle for anything less than what makes you happy. From the pic, it looks like there is quite a difference in the shades, so stand your ground and make the company correct their error.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08947372143950508859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779645116868045578.post-38152675452848301022009-09-02T13:41:30.318+10:002009-09-02T13:41:30.318+10:00a.

However, it also kind of depends on the landscape, architecture, and the area around the home for me to make the final decision. If you both like the lighter version...go with your hearts. It's YOUR home and lots of $$$$ is being invested into the property.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995278310387179862noreply@blogger.com
