Browse Forums General Discussion 1 Jul 20, 2020 12:40 am So I was recently told by a friend that has built few times, that the main flooring is not included in builders price. So that made me wonder, what else is generally not included with main stream builders? Kitchen/bathroom tiles? Lights? Please enlighten me Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Depends which builders you go to. Check and ask for their inclusions. One builder can have more than one inclusions depending on your budget. Some builders have their inclusions on their website so you can start there.
