Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our Better Built Homes Journey 130Dec 11, 2017 9:23 am Annu Krusade25........Simply beautiful and awesome...............Thanks for sharing your dream journey Our brick are going on..... SM advised that they will finish brick and roof and gutters before Christmas and will return in new year to continue As its our first home we have missed few things initially, have requested few basic upgrades which we missed at the time of contract. Hi Annu, We are also planning to build with BBH. If you don't mind could you please share what things you missed initially, and had to add later as upgrades? It would immensely help us as we plan for our internals appointment (due in Feb 2018 ). We liked the overall design of the house we are planning to build, and the overall reviews of BBH. But I must say we felt kind of let down by the flooring inclusions, and are thinking if we should pay them for a carpet upgrade, or remove the flooring altogether and get it done on our own. Keep thinking if it will be a hassle to get anything done to the house after the handover. Thank you!

We forget to add few more draws in the kitchen which we desperately needed (now we can't do it) home theater insulation and extra points for projector etc change two windows to awning instead of slid one.... it really compromises house look though it cost almost same. study bench for kids stairs lights lights above kitchen bench specially LED ones just above cooking top Also you can add down lights in alfresco area We prefer to have commercial laminate upstairs and down stairs we are getting tiles done from outside. You can prefer to upgrade carpets ............which seems to be good idea for me if you want carpet. All the best for your home........... Our roof and bricks are done and now getting this upgrades done.... it really cost you if you do it later and it same with all the builders. Get it done earlier if you want to.

Thank you for replying. That’s actually the colour I have chosen but I’m really second guessing. It’s great to see it in a real kitchen.
