Home Choices
Here at Compendium Living, we want your home to truly reflect your personality.
That’s why we have a great range of home choices, known as Our Inspirations, designed to fit your lifestyle, including everything from sockets to appliances.
You have the option to change a wide range of fixtures and fittings before you move in, meaning every aspect of your new home can really reflect your personality.
It also means you can move in knowing you already love every detail of your home, and there’s no work to do at a later date!
The earlier in the building process your home is reserved, the more additional details you can choose from. Find out what Home Choices are available at each stage below:
Stage 1
Foundations
This is when the foundations of your home are laid. If you reserve your home at this stage, you’ll have the full range of Inspirations choices available to you.
Stage 2
Superstructure
At this stage, the brickwork and roof timbers are in place, but the roof has not yet been fully installed. You can still plump for any of the options from our full Inspirations home choices at this stage.
Stage 3
Roof
Once the roof has been completed, you can still choose from the following extras:
- Electrical items, including additional power points, ceiling points, switches and audio home integration
- Plumbing options, including external taps, shower choices and towel rails
- Wall tiling and floor finishes
- Kitchen upgrades and integrated appliances
Stage 4
First Fix
This means that internal walls have been completed, and plumbing and electrical wiring has been installed. At this stage, you have the option of choosing additional plaster coving.
Stage 5
Plastering
Once all the walls and ceilings have been plastered and skimmed, you can’t make any changes to the inside of your home. However, if your property has a garden, you can choose whether you want to include paving slabs or a garden shed.
Stage 6
Second Fix
This is the stage at which the kitchen, sanitary wares, boiler and heating system are installed, before the final decoration takes place. The only internal fixtures that can be changed now are internal doors.
Stage 7
Decoration
By this point, your new home has been decorated throughout, but you’ll still have the option to choose:
- Carpets and mat wells
- Freestanding appliances
- Fencing and turf for the garden
- Wardrobes and bedroom furniture
- Fire and fire surrounds
Stage 8
Build Finished
Your home is now finished and ready for you!
