Edges and corners are what's left, then grouting. A quick photo from the outside through a window.

At least that's our experience in this area. Same goes for Telstra. Connect a phone to the address now, and log a line fault once the LUKA box is installed on the side of the house under the fusebox. That'll save you weeks!

We have Beeman power connection in our tender already. I just need to organise Energy Australia to connect from the pole to the power lines. As to phone line, I thought the HUB box is where it gets terminated, and I just have to organise the line activation. I'll keep an eye for the LUKA box.

We had Beeman doing the power pole installation also, and associated trenching to fuse-box. But that doesn't include the connection to the grid, which is an extra $800 or so, depending upon phase-type. Beeman also do the trench for Telstra and install the LUKA. Yep, re the phone line, definitely terminates in LUKA, same goes for Optus. And then it runs via CAT5a/CAT6 to home-hub. You may well find that they put in a central splitter in the LUKA, which, if Sentinel aren't on their toes, doesn't get wired through properly. I ended up getting a punchdown tool and fixing it myself. ![]() Masterton Villina 36 - 2011 Jul-SLAB Aug-FRAME Nov-BRICK+ROOF Dec-INSUL Jan-GYPROCK Feb-LOCKUP Mar-PCI Apr-KEYS+MOVE May-Driveway+Landscaping Blog - http://new-lindfield-house.blogspot.com.au/ 25 5648 Hi Rayavo going back and forth between builders i realized Masterton and Metricon tend to be cheaper compared to others initially, they might still be cheap if you pick… 20 5008 Hi, I am planning to build a house with Metricon Santorini-29 and have Neo Facade (16 m wide).
