We went through EHI via Clarendon. $395 Fixed Priced Landscape Plans for DA M: 0435 127 244 | W: bluegumdesign.com.au | E: info@bluegumdesign.com.au Residential | Commercial | Industrial Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7625May 22, 2015 5:19 pm At the time we simply didn't have the extra budget for the blinds to be included in our tender. How, I did find the ehi quote to be quite good. One company we have used recently for our apartment was very well priced because they were roughly the same as other companies but the price included install. That was no bull blinds.

I thought they would render right up to where the down-pipe is. They render till the expansion joint. Jinx Very helpful lizzy! Any idea what XAF1-8F or XAA1-8E mean? We have those windows and they are the letterbox style ones. Two open and one is fixed. See pic below. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ leeleh Has anyone opted for ducted vacuum system and/or underfloor heating? What does clarendon charge? I reckon ducted vacuum fad has passed. These days people go for Dysons or robo vacs. I wanted heated flooring but quote came to around $1500-$2000 - can't remember exactly. I thought there are other areas where I could utilise that money, so I passed. Lizzy083 Really? That's weird cause EHI quoted off these sizes. I'm sure 10mm wouldn't change the price though. And they'd have to do a final measure before ordering your blinds... Yup, they are close enough for quotes. 10mm wouldn't make any difference. Once architraves are done, the installer will do a proper check and mesaure. Only then they order window coverings. denot is Clarendon SS work on Saturday? Nope Brahma Bull So when I had my blinds purchased through EHI 8 months ago, I assume the installer will measure my windows first before ordering them instead of going off the plans? I hope? Yup Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7627May 22, 2015 5:50 pm In other news, it was a miserable wet day. I had sparky inside doing light fittings and the landscapers outside putting in drainage.

Hopefully they'll be in tmrw Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7629May 22, 2015 6:42 pm Oh EHI is fairly reasonable. And if you do a big Job with them then they give you a nice discount.. And yes they come and measure as well as ensure the window frames are correct before actual windows are in.. I think they charged 500 for that!!!! Ehi will be at our place next week! They have a lottt to do Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7631May 22, 2015 7:31 pm Hello all, Just got our blinds installed today. We got 9 double rollers and 3 full block out blinds.

Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7632May 22, 2015 7:58 pm Colours picked today. It's starting to get real now! Managed to pick some standard items. Though was surprised when they said createc gloss wasn't included in a diamond kitchen. Did anyone else find this? Did anyone upgrade to createc gloss? I'd love a ballpark figure. If anyone did .

We are getting something similar (smokey mirror) Definitely worth the extra for one piece!! MinandB I am really surprised what is standard for Sapphire is standard for diamond! Do you know what IS included in the Diamond which is an upgrade for us? Building the Clarendon Merriden 30 (44 after Mods) @ Harrington Grove!

MinandB I am really surprised what is standard for Sapphire is standard for diamond! Do you know what IS included in the Diamond which is an upgrade for us? Thanks Lizzy. Considering that Clarendon wanted nearly $3K just for the bottom bit (not behind the rangehood), it's quite cheap....that's why I mentioned the prices. The bin was also around $700-800 through Clarendon. Big savings post handover. Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7637May 22, 2015 10:05 pm Some amazing pictures there people.. really inspiring.
