What colour splashback?

Hey guys just would like some advice on what colour splash back i should get. I have cs cashmere and laminex moleskin cupboards. Our kitchen is sort of like a u shape and its really long. We would need a lot of splash back. I really want a glass splash back and is wondering if red would look ok? Nothing in the house is red.... Do i need to accessorise the other areas to match the kitchen? I found this red kitchen picture and fell in love with it. Tell me what ya think.

Roof & Bricks

Bricks were delivered 4/11 and began 11/11. Bricks should take two weeks to finish.

Frames Completed

House is moving along really well, the frame work is all completed now with the windows in. Tomorrow the facia's are getting done if it doesn't rain and roof tiles are due to arrive on Thursday.

We've got an issue with the power at the front of our land, there is none... We don't have a power box directly to our block so the electrical company only ran a conduit from the power box to the front of our land. However the electrician/builder are going to charge me $885 to pull the cable through.. Not sure what I can do, have spoken to Landcom and they said thats how it is.. Thinking of going to Fair Trading now to get this resolved...

Here is a pic of what of what I'm talking about.

Completion date

Recieved a letter saying that completion date is 3rd of March. We hope they complete by this date as we are renting and want to move asap. Before we can move in we will be doing our tiles and carpet. The count down has begun!

frames & windows

Frames were delivered on the Wednesday, drove past on thurs to find the frames have started! Friday the windows were installed. Hopefully this week they can finish the roof! The progress is looking good.

Removal of soil

Was told by Allworth that we had to remove dirt as we've got a fair bit (58 piers at 2m each x 400mm diameter). Did not get an official price from them..however a mate quoted $3500!! We asked Allworth if we could put the dirt at the back. The dirt is mostly clay but was told we can use lime to break it down. We will use this soil to fill instead of buying soil later. On Thursday my hubby, brother and myself decided to move the dirt by wheel borrow. We were on a great start..however after a couple of long hrs it didnt seem like the pile was going down :( My hubby hired a dingo digger and moved 13t in 4hrs! It saved us so much money doing it this way.
We are told that the frames will be delivered on Wednesday, hopefully the rain will stop..
