Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building Doulton 50 with Metricon 41Dec 03, 2021 7:24 pm [quote="Sparkyf"][quote="RameshN":2oytblxz][quote="Sparkyf":2oytblxz]We went with their downlights, and got batten holders in the rooms we wish to add other pendants (or a junction box in the ceiling), so at least the wiring is there! With appliances, you can have other brands, but they have to purchase and install them (can cost a lot extra). Just give them the brand and model number. We added an induction stove that we wanted, which wasn't one they offered.[/quote:2oytblxz] Great, any interesting adds in addition to the Designer Showcase Promos ? Missed to ask - did you consider any of their promotions ? We'd taken showcase promo - Upgrades, Aircon & Appliances, Flooring Upgrades, Hebel Rendering & Colorbond roof / streel frame. Also what's your Cut & Fill ?[/quote:2oytblxz] We got two promos from 2019 quote, free Butler's Pantry upgrade and 30K discount on total price. Butler's upgrade was stone bench, 40mm edge, overhead cupboards round sink and mixer tap. We changed the sink to a double underbench one, and upgraded the mixer to a pull-out one also. They allowed us to use the old one and round sink in leisure room, we added cupboards and made into a wet bar with bar fridge provision. They did offer colourbond roof after contract signing (due to shortages of tiles and bricks) but we said no thanks (had that on previous house, too noisy). There wasn't any other promos at the time, so all our Upgrades were costly! Cut and fill - we have 1.7M retaining wall at the back and left, and 1.5M along the right (we have 3.2M slope corner to corner), that will give you some idea. That was about 45K in the site cost! /quote] Thanks mate !
