Kincaid build experience
Creating Your Home
At Kincaid, we believe your home should be reflective of your unique style. That’s why we offer you the opportunity to choose from an extensive selection of colours, fixtures, and finishes for the external and internal of your home. With beautiful palettes created by our expert interior design team, you can confidently lend your personal touch to create “your home”.
Our streamlined and boutique approach ensures your colour selection process will be simple and enjoyable, so your home is perfectly aligned with your vision.
Beginning Your Colour Selections
Begin by selecting your external colour scheme. Choose from our comprehensive range of included options at no additional cost, or explore our premium upgrade selections. Your external colour scheme will encompass roof tiles, bricks, garage doors, render, cladding, gutter, fascia, downpipes and windows.
Once you have selected a colour scheme, you will have the option to upgrade various products and brands for an additional cost. For example, you may choose to upgrade your coloured concrete driveway to an exposed aggregate driveway.
Next it’s time to select your internal colour scheme. This covers colours and styles for your stone benchtops, cabinetry, splashback, floor and wall tiles, internal paint, timber floors and carpets.
Once you have selected an internal colour scheme, you will have the option to upgrade various products and brands for an additional cost. For example, you can choose to upgrade your tiled splashback, to a glass splashback.
During your colour selections, your Customer Service Co Ordinator will show you all the included items in your build that do not form part of the colour selection. These included items have all been included in the price of your building contract.
