Ausman, I asked for 3 coats, the estimator came back with $3300, I said no thank you.
Honestly, I think 2 coats is sufficient. If I was to upgrade/spend my…

If your plan had been lodged to council, and they asked for an extra window, you don't have to pay for it. That was my case anyway, council requires to…

Has anyone gotten their rates from Blacktown council yet? Care to share? Mine is $987/yearly for 450sqm land, a bit excessive, no?

@Cremorne35
If you are raising all the internal doors, imo, you should also raise the stacker and sliding, otherwise It'll look odd.
I have increased both sliding and stacker to 2340mm,…

Correctly If I'm wrong, but if you are building H&L then Moroka facade is already included in the package, so if you asked for a credit, they'd give you peanuts.
But…

You should, I have increased all my internal doors as well as stacker and sliding door, from memory it was around $1100 extra for both. Don't forget also to increase…

Just my 2 cents in regards to Kitchen Bulkhead, if you were to increase the ceiling heights to 2590mm or 2700mm, you'd be better off increasing the height of cupboards…

Just received an email from my CSA, reticulation system is an upgrade not an inclusion.

I think regardless of what your builder or council says, Elara estate requires 4m rear setback and 4.5m front setback, I could be wrong though..

Hi all,
For those you who attended the 'walk the lot' yesterday, what do you think about your lot? or Elara estate in general?

Venini is a standard for lifestyle series, while Baumatic is for prestige. My sales person told me the difference between Venini and Baumatic, is like comparing Toyota and Lexus.

undermount sink (cut and polish) is around $493 if I'm not mistaken

It is an extra $747, but It's bigger and wider compares to others

Both designs are nice, but I doubt they'd get approve by council, because you can only have 30% site coverage for 1st floor, both designs seems to have >30%,…

Ketchup, is it only for kitchen bulkhead? Did you get charge 'return trip plasterer' for full height tiling (bathroom) also?

Nope, they are raised on post contract variations. So after signing all the quotes, EBH will then raise you another PCV with surprises!! ::
