Very cool of the builder to let you in there to do that. Is it a big builder or a small/custom guy?

Glad to hear you'll do some claddin'. Might as well because like you said the area under there is pretty useless.

It is a small custom builder and yes they are somewhat accommodating. Initially though, we were told that we could have the tank in a lot earlier but then went back on that. Overall they are working with us and considering they have never done anything like this before, things have went fairly smootly. As well, you are absolutely right about maintenance being difficult with the black sides. I was back and forth on it, but being that it is in wall, I also think it will look sharp. At least I will have front access from the display side which should make things a little easier.
