Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jul 17, 2014 9:07 am hi, Good day. im a 1st time poster. we are building our new home at Perth. we dont have any provisions for free landscaping from the developer; and i would like to set up my own retic system. can someone advise me what I should mention to the builder in regards to power supply for retic controller and water supply for retic before i sign the final building contract please? Also builder is providing the conduit under the driveway for retic. anything else i should consider? Thanks guys.
