For electrical change is 1k, and should we want to change something from tiles, it will be another 1k. Im just confused with their policies as I thought it will be a general admin...

Hi Doosra, Thank you for the info. Sure, If I remember it right the estimste for cement render was $3,500 as per wisdom homes. Just for the two pillars. I am hoping I can get a cheaper rate outside so I dont have to pay the variation fee if in case. Was yours cement or Acryllic render? Thanks again!...

If it's only 2 pillars then I'd probably do it through wisdom as they are probably right. If it's full house render than i would say much cheaper outside. We just did front house render so we went with wisdom Hi Doosra, Thank you for your input. We'll consider that, however I am still waiting for t...

You would have a real hard time finding a kitchen mob to do that, no worth it for them. Best bet would be handyman services or even a Cabinet Maker or similar looking for cash work. Thank you for your reply. I see, thanks for the heads up. :)

Ohhhhhh.. not sure, I would think that as long as it fits on your land, it would just be another structural change. I see. Yes i think it will fit my land, I was conservative when I chose the 22, but then at the end of the day I am not happy. So rather than waiting for final contract plans to be ma...
