Hurrow, you'll have to ask your Bc. Your safest bet is to say that you want a tile that they don't have and go to Beaumont tiles or another company and say you want something from them and if pd can allow you to buy the tiles and give them to install. Hi Naama, I actually meant my response more as ...

Does anyone know how PD work out the tile costs?? When we ewnt for a look last week, we were looking at tiles, the lady there was really helpful. I asked how the pricing works with upgrading tiles, she said you pay the difference in the price between the standard inclusion tile and the one you're u...
Is it possible to go to National Tiles yourself, buy the tiles there, and have Porter Davis install them? Ideally PD wo...

I hadn't even considered the hebel before but it looks really nice now that I have looked at it, from the website it looks like a single storey in the lifestyle range is $4,999. Single storey in the advantage range is $3,999. My wife didn't like the brick colours in the standard range at WoS so we'...
My wife didn't like the brick colours in the standard range at WoS so we're probably going to be upgrading either way. ...

Yeah it's really hard as no one is able to give you pricing only tell you which is what category! We haven't had the best experience with the contracts being wrong over 10 times! Also the WOS was so hard as they rush you to each department for only around an hour (which isn't long enough to pick th...
Reading your blog it looks like a bit of a nightmare process so far, I'm really hoping that it goes a bit more smoothly...

Hey Guys, We've been looking at a bunch of different builders and due to the holiday season, it's been a bit difficult getting numbers. We've been looking at PD, M and Boutique. With PD, we really like the Bermuda 23. However we also really like the Kitchen, Games, Rumpus upgrade. We also like the ...
I would just send them an email and ask how much the upgrades are? It costs you nothing to get a quote prepared, and th...

We were forced to get double glazing to whole house to pass the 6 star rating. I think it will be worth it in the long run anyway. If you don't alter the base floor-plan then PD ensure a 6 star rating. If you make changes, which most of us do, then you have to wear the cost of selected upgrades to ...
Hmm, I didn't realise that if you did upgrades then it's up to you to pay for making sure it's 6 star. We're making pre...

Hi again Hurrow. The LED lights were about 140 for the strong light and 120 for the weaker lights, the electric consultant knew we were working on a tight budget and made sure we don't go overboard with the extra lights. The double power outlets were about 50 each. We placed extras in the bedrooms,...
Hi Naama! I'm not sure what we'll be doing with the internal lights, no doubt Mrs Hurrow will let me know in due course...

Hi, Short term lurker, first time poster here! We've just signed up to build a Kew 28 with Porter Davis, with a bunch of options like study, corner al fresco and extended kitchen. We went with the Dream Life Design Collection upgrades to Indoor, Outdoor and Flooring as well. I wanted to check what ...
Hi Hurrow We are building an Advantage home too. This is a pretty basic range compared to the others, I feel you will h...

Strangely we seem to have a 600mm oven and cooktop in one upgrade and then a 900m upright cooker in another upgrade. I'm not sure how that works, I'm hoping it means that we get a credit against one of the packages rather than having two ovens!

Thanks Naama, that's reassuring! Looking at what we have included it seems to be at least some of the stuff you have listed so that's good. It seems we have the silestone and splashback as part of the package, what is the Colonial square profile that seems to have cost you a lot? Also what is the ov...

Hi Hurrow. We also had the Dream life promotion for our access home, is the Kew also an access? If it is then you might want to pop into my blog, I had my color selection just this Monday, in a couple of hours I will post the last part of my visit which is the electrical selection.. We ended up spe...
Hi Naama, The Kew is an Advantage home, not sure what the difference is between that and Access. I had a read of your b...
