Re: Info & tips for those building in BAL40 and Flame ZoneBuilding A New House

Dec 20, 2020 5:35 pm

Hi All, has anyone had any experience in buying windows from China for Flame zone? As i had a quote for 200k from Australia and China seems much much cheaper for the same steel framed 10mm window, this will stop you from having shutters. Dont really keen to pay 200k for windows to avoid shutter. Ex...

Re: Can A BAL 29 or BAL 40 windows be double glazed?Building A New House

Mar 03, 2020 4:35 pm

The quotes are indicative and advise bank that you may change the tradie (flooring, pool) later on. That should not be a problem. Oh thank you. I hope bank doesn’t create any dramas
