No, sorry I haven't seen one of them or know of one built. Good luck with your journey. I created my own discussion last night for our progress, since we now have some action and the build has started. You can find the link here, if I have done it correctly.... viewtopic.php?f=31&t=90468 Re: Building with Dennis Family Homes 593Jul 25, 2018 2:45 pm rtforresters So it's been about a month in our new home and we still have so much to do.

Hi, we did it after handover. During the build contracts did you place batten light holders on the particular spots where you knew that pendants would be installed or did everything after the hand over ? I am in a process to sign contracts with dennis soon and requires 14 extra down lights along with pendant lights which is costing a lot by them and trying to get an insighst if it worth doing afterwards or doesnt make much difference.

We had a friend install them so it was a lot cheaper.

Hi, we did it after handover. [/quote] Hi Lenz, congrats. That’s so exciting. You must be looking forward to the frame going up. We are doing really well. Almost finished with landscaping, etc. We are still waiting on DFH to come back to fix everything. We haven’t had the best of luck with our build. Hope yours will run a lot more smoothly Building with Dennis Family Homes Re: Building with Dennis Family Homes 599Jul 25, 2018 3:27 pm makes sense, I got 20 package for 20 down lights and needed around 14 more down lights and few pendants and they are quoting $140 for single down lights and almost double of it for the pendants which seems a lot.

Yeh, it a bit of a rip off going through dfh. During the build we did ask their electrician how much they charge to do it and it was a lot cheaper. They were quoting $35 per downlight if you supply Building with Dennis Family Homes Hi everyone, Newbie renovator here, after some advice for combining our family room in the picture and the alfresco and make a larger family room.
