Calling all Carpenters/Structural Engineers. New home construction ???

Thanks buddy I'm happy with it...took me many years to save for this and wasn't much new construction in Salt Lake City Valley unless you go north or south so I got lucky.

 

I guess my fiancé is right saying it looks tacky...we decided whichever gets most votes in a day we'll go with lol

 

Another update I forgot to mention was I forgot I ordered a 9ft garage door and they put in a 8ft garage door and when the garage door was getting installed it was to talk now they had to tear out garage wall and reframe it because the load bearing beam was there also so it made it really difficult..they had to bring in massive jacks to hold house up while they reposition main beam a foot taller this is why you have to check on them everyday

 

I vote the stainless around the white outlets because it accents the appliances. Your counter tops are super bright, if the back splash were darker I'd say white plugs but it's too light and all washes together in my opinion

Edit: Maybe it's just the lighting on that first pic.. I can sort of see dark flake in the others

 

Not to mention you can't get a stainless phone jack cover that I'm aware of so in pic #2 you would have all white right beside stainless / white

Hokey IMO

 

Leviton offers many different colors for their devices and wall plates.... just sayin,

 

Does that include all their plugs and switches ?

 

Just looking at their GFCI receptacles it seems like they only come in the standard white / ivory / almond / grey colours , maybe I'm not looking in the right place though

 

Beautiful home Gincoma. People never forget their first new home. All the headaches and frustrations will be worth it. I'm in my third house now. Built all three. This one will be my last.

 

Yes you can, although I don't know anyone that has a landline anymore

 

Pretty sure by code you still need to provide phone jacks no ?

and can you link me to the stainless ones ? I keep a catalog of oddball bookmarks like that for work

and the OP has a land line right there by the plug in his 2nd pic unless thats a LAN jack

 

Yes. All devices.

 

Can you link me cause when I go on the Leviton site and look at Decora devices I can only find the standard colours

 

Your local electrical supply house can get them too. I'll look around in a bit.

 

So they're not Leviton ? I thought your colour palette was Leviton .

 

I was mistaken, not Leviton.... it's Lutron.

Lutron is expensive, but a good quality for high-end interiors. Scroll to the bottom for the colors offered.

Oh Lutron , yeah I know that brand

Didn't realize they made so many colours that worked with the Decora style devices

Thanks for the link

 

Good question, I don't know if it's to code every house has to have one..? I don't have any listed on my prints though.

 

What have they messed up on your home? BTW congrats on the purchase man.

 

Sounds like some of my problems. they forgot the taller front door and also making it wider by 6", then forgot window in garage, bigger window in master bedroom and the the 9ft garage. i had o choice but to build in winter lots were going quick but if I had to do it again i would def build in summer.
