Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 1207Oct 08, 2012 9:41 am Benblinkau - All colours are available as standard as far as I know. EBW - Downlight charges are pretty standard across the builders. I looked into using my electrician to supply & install using his discounted rates after EBH have cut & prewired. It wasn't going to be that much cheaper but it would have been more of a hassle.

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 1210Oct 08, 2012 1:34 pm Did anyone else organise for extra noggins in the walls for artwork, mirrors, sports memorabilia (my husband has plenty from silent auctions!) etc etc? Anyone know what the cost is? If you look at our plans on my blog (tab up the top of home page), I am considering decreasing the width of the very wide square set opening to the main bathroom. Not sure what was going on there when the plans were drawn up. I am OK about no door but I think the vanity area is a little too exposed. Any thoughts from you learned peoples?!

In our rumpus we are getting LED downlights that are able to be dimmed, they are a white fitting. In the kitchen we at getting LED downlights in a white fitting. We upgraded our laundry bunker light for a flood light. The upgrade was cheaper than buying said light, then paying for the fitting. All other lights I am finding at the cheapest possible price and providing for them to fit. They have a pretty good selection but you need to know your prices. Some are good value, but they weren't the fittings I wanted. The ones I wanted I knew I could get for cheaper including the fitting fee. EBH just supply one batten point and a switch and double PowerPoint for each room, as well as a bunker light outside the laundry door.

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 1213Oct 08, 2012 6:26 pm Does anyone know how much EB charge for the stencil driveway cross over? As standard driveway will have a plain concrete cross over. In my estate everyone got the stencil/paver driveway cross over, I thought it is standard. I sent an email to EB today for the confirmation, they said have to pay additional charges plus $500 admin fee for the late variation Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 1214Oct 08, 2012 6:33 pm [quote="sohnaeo"]Does anyone know how much EB charge for the stencil driveway cross over?

Re: Who else is building with Eden Brae? 1217Oct 08, 2012 6:53 pm My driveway is 7.4 m long but not sure the width but cant be more than 5 m so definately it is under 55sqm, would it be mentioned in the contract or somewhere?
