Browse Forums Building A New House Re: What upgrades did you get when building? 21May 28, 2011 9:51 pm did you get your concreting done with your builder or did you get it done privately? We are debating if to get the builder to do the alfresco, porch & driveway or to shop around & get it done elsewhere. Any advice would be great & roughly how much it should cost. The builder has quoted $81 per m2 is that cheap or expensive? Re: What upgrades did you get when building? 22May 29, 2011 9:42 pm We got our porch and alfresco done through the builder for around 2k. The primary reason being that they were poured as part of the slab and are fully integrated as part of said slab. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.
