Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Dec 10, 2014 10:18 pm Hi We are building a 27 square single story home and cant decide wether to go with 2590 ceilings or 2700mm. We save just over $2000 is we go with 2590mm. At the end of the day 2700mm is only 110mm bigger do you think it makes much of a difference at all?
