Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 202Jul 29, 2017 6:56 pm No, we haven't decided on builder yet. We haven't finalized plan on what house to build.. lot more home work before we decide on builder. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 203Jul 29, 2017 9:55 pm Great.. If it's ok, could you please let me know which builder you went with ? Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 205Aug 24, 2017 8:18 pm What did they quote you on for your original slab? If it was only quoted on M, then I imagine that the extra cost is normal. Ours was H2 (Quoted on H1) and was less than $2500 extra, even with some piers in the front half of the house. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 206Aug 24, 2017 9:18 pm narbe Building in Carson release builder just came back with H2 slab upgrade for $12000!! Anyone had the same slab level needed as well ? I am with Clarendon and mine came up as H1. They did list it as H1 and it turned out to be the same. My site costs are listed as almost 10K. Thanks, Kishore. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 207Aug 24, 2017 9:59 pm bananarama What did they quote you on for your original slab?

Got surprised at electrical appointment when we rounded $12 K . Now the question she asked is do I have a 3 phase or single phase on the street. Did any one encountered a single phase ?

Yeah Builder tried to quote me for a 3-phase upgrade. For adding an induction cooktop. I ended up arguing about it and reduced to normal single phase. You really shouldn't be paying for an 3-phase upgrade unless you have ducted + induction + pool and turn it on all the same time.

No pool nor induction cook top. I am going with gas. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 214Sep 02, 2017 4:57 pm kishore I am doing with Clarendon.

Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 215Sep 02, 2017 7:51 pm JB1, the extras we picked at electrical selection costed us 12,000 AUD. Thanks, Kishore. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 216Sep 03, 2017 12:10 am $12k on extras? Jesus that's expensive. That's more than the whole price to wire up my whole house with 3 phase including 60 downlights. That doesn't include the light fittings (because you can spend $10 or $100 on a LED downlight). Better to have 3 phase and not need it, than not have it and need it in future. The cost to upgrade now is minimal. Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 217Sep 03, 2017 9:01 am Yeah JB1, I felt a bit expensive too. My target was to see the prices which the lady wouldn't tell until we select item. Each downlight costed me 98 and with 55 of them it costs me close to 5,300. I did a bit of run around on this week end along with carpet checks at carpet call in Aspley Home Maker Centre. Thanks, Kishore My Thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=89393 Re: Who's building in Capestone, Mango Hill ? 218Sep 03, 2017 6:28 pm What downlights do you get for $98? I'm assuming cheap ones that electricians buy for $10. If that's the case, do them after handover, with the exception of those on the ground floor of a 2 storey home.

If that's the case, do them after handover, with the exception of those on the ground floor of a 2 storey home. Yeah I agree. My builder charges 150$ per LED downlight. Going for bare minimum in each area just for the connection. Then will call an sparky afterwards to connect as many as I want. Save a few thousand.

Thanks, Kishore My Thread - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=89393 I'm only spending 2000-3000$ on electrical, do it afterwards and do smart placement of lights. Allows the sparky afterwards really easy access.
