It’s almost time for your Colour Consultation, where we will help you to select all your colours, finishes and fittings to suit your individual taste and truly turn your house into a home! Please take the time to read the below and review this guide thoroughly.

This guide is here to help you prepare

We have created this Pre-Selection Guide to give you an idea of what to expect at your Colour Consultation and enable you to select some of your items prior to your appointment.

What to expect at your Consultation?

During your Colour Consultation you will be required to make final decisions regarding the External and Internal colours and finishes to your home as well as your Electrical sections.

Tips to help you prepare:

Throughout the colour process, your Colour and Electrical Consultants will be there to guide you and offer suggestions, however, it is essential that you come into your appointments prepared.

To be as prepared as possible, we recommend visiting our display homes, supplier showrooms (where possible) or alternatively, their websites. Details regarding our suppliers can be found throughout this guide and on the last page of this guide.

Instagram and Pinterest are also great resources. You can explore various interior design trends simply by searching via hashtags, following our accounts on Instagram and Pinterest (#DennisFamilyHomes) or checking out our supplier pages to see their products showcased in real homes. This sort of research will also assist your Colour Consultant in determining the style you are wanting to achieve in your new home.

We hope you enjoy your time in our Showroom and the remainder of your journey with Dennis Family Homes.

External Selections

There are several selections you will need to make for the exterior of your new home during your Colour Appointment. To help you better understand the elements, we have highlighted some key items in the image below.

Brick Suppliers

Our bricks are supplied by PGH and Austral Bricks.

While we do have a range of brick samples on display at our Showroom, PGH and Austral will generally have larger samples and a bigger range than what is available in our Showroom. For this reason, we recommend you visit the brickyards at PGH and Austral prior to your Colour Appointment to assist you in selecting your bricks.

This visit will provide you with a better understanding of the variance in colour and/or texture of the bricks which can occur during the manufacturing process. PGH and Austral also have brick walls on display, where you can view the bricks you are interested in with mortar. This will really help to give you a better idea of how the bricks will look if selected for your brand new home.

We recommend contacting PGH or Austral Bricks to confirm their opening hours prior to visiting. Please ensure you bring this booklet with you on your visit so you can record your preferences.

If you are unable to visit the brick yards, we recommend that you utilise the Visualiser tools that both suppliers have on their websites (see links below). This will provide you with an understanding of how the bricks may look on your home. Please be advised that the variance in colour and/or texture of the bricks which can occur during the manufacturing process will not be detailed on the Visualisers. During your Colour Appointment, you will be able to refer to the samples in our Showroom for a better idea.
