Yes, we did. There's a child's bedroom above it.
Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4402Feb 28, 2017 8:22 pm Hahaha after numerous ridiculous quotes from Wisdom landscapes (i.e. $6k to level our backyard, not even turfed..and a 15k driveway...) we decidedwe are just getting a side path done (just ONE side). I told them they were exorbitantly expensive and when I asked about price matching, I got shut down very quickly. So I said "fine just quote me ONLY the side path as we need to use the voucher anyway.." And of course it came to EXACTLY $5k. To the dollar. I just had to laugh. Building Majestic 40 - wisdom homes Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4403Feb 28, 2017 8:27 pm Jordann For the people that added bradford soundscreen to your HT, did you guys do the ground floor celing as well? Yes we have put it through the ceilings too. We did the whole lot between floors because I've spent too long living in an apartment and listening to every little noise from upstairs. But if we had just done HT we would have opted for ceiling too, mainly to stop noise travelling up if the HT was in use and someone was trying to sleep upstairs. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4404Feb 28, 2017 8:47 pm Thanks M&M and JM. We got quoted but they left out the ceiling, so just wondering if there's a reason for that. Will get Wisdom to add that in also.

If so, could you please share the price Thank u. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4407Mar 01, 2017 1:09 pm 007 Yeah we got the $5500 landscaping voucher which originally was going towards the driveway with an additional tender allowance of $2500. So I'll most likely get them to do the driveway and additional concrete area and then use my own trades people for the side fence returns and I'll do all the landscaping works. Hi 007, What was the $2500 tender allowance? Did you receive an additional credit at Tender or was this your own money you had out aside? Thanks, Bob Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4408Mar 01, 2017 1:28 pm Trying to be patient waiting for our working drawings but I'm itching to get them. We were told a 3 week delay so to expect them early this week. Have just sent an email chasing them up. We paid for them before Xmas so hopefully not far away.

We were told a 3 week delay so to expect them early this week. Have just sent an email chasing them up. We paid for them before Xmas so hopefully not far away. Keep on them. I was trying to be nice and patient with ours, only emailing once a week and believing everyone when they said they would follow up and get back to me. It got me nowhere. If they don't give you a definite timeline when they reply then demand a commitment to a date. We got an email yesterday to say the small changes required to our plans after we reviewed them required a revised tender, so that had to be done before we would get the plans revised. I'm never going to get to book my kitchen and tiles appointments!!!

Hi 007, What was the $2500 tender allowance? Did you receive an additional credit at Tender or was this your own money you had out aside? Thanks, Bob It was our money that we put in the provisional tender at the start to assist in budget and roughly look at final costs. In saying that looks like budget will blow out by around $30 - 40K Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4412Mar 01, 2017 6:58 pm Jordann Thanks M&M and JM.

Hey M&M and JM, Were you quoted soundscreen 2.5 for HT ceiling but all walls 2.0? 2.5 for ceilings and 2.0 for internal walls.

Thanks Wisdom have quoted us $4500 to render the balcony projection on the front of our facade. Seems pretty expensive but we have to do it for our development guidelines and we don't want moroka/bag and paint which are the only cheaper options.

We originally asked for render to our balcony and they put a provisional allowance in for $6500 which scared us off! I think your balcony is a fair bit bigger than our portico.
