Ceiling Height cost on 2.4M to 2.7M

Page 1 of 1
Hey guys

What would the cost for 2.44m to 2.7M on Total Area: 179.33 sqm | 19.30 sq home be roughly?

Looking building out North Suburbs of Adelaide Munno Para.

Looking at Simmonds build Prague

Thanks

This will give you an order-of-magnitude idea, because we're in Sydney and this was quoted 4 years ago now, and also because it's from 2.45m to 2.6m.

But for upstairs in our house, which is about 150sqm, we paid $3840 for the 2.45m to 2.6m change (which doesn't include the extra cost of tiling in the bathrooms - they quoted the floor-ceiling tiling separately).
$3 - $4,000 seems to be the going rate for builders I have spoken to recently
my original quote from back in march with my builder - was about $3.7k extra to go to 2700mm ceiling height. Larger villa - 3BR and 2 living areas totalling 154m2
Thanks guys turns out the ceilings are 2590 and going to go to 2740mm for $2500 really happy thanks for your input
We also paid another 2200 over the ceiling height cost to have doors and windows and garage doors increased to 2400
Wow, those are great prices! Our quote (for a 229.1m2 home) is $6,415 to upgrade to 2740mm in lieu of the standard 2240mm. To upgrade our doors is another $600. I hadn't even thought of the garage and windows needing upgrades... eek!

This may be because you are going 2 increments, from 2.2 to 2.5 to 2.74 (they seem to charge for each increment). Our ground we are looking at comes with 2.55 which we are upgrading to 2.74, and level 2 comes with 2.4ish, which we are upgrading to 2.55. Each is around $3,500, and includes some ancillary works (bulkheads, taller doors, window changes etc)
