We have spent over $8k on additional accounstic insulation and plan to spend over $1.5k on upgrading carpets and underlay post handover. At the moment, without carpets we can still hear walking (not creaking) from upstairs so maybe $21k would have given us peace of mind. Thanks mate. Yes, I have chosen the Hebel subfloor, tiles to ceiling for all bathrooms, brick external walls, and 2.7m ceiling height for both floors, etc..., which bring the total price to 700k+ for Vantage 48. One thing I also regret not doing is asking metricon to build a extra garage size unit at the rear. You can probably get one for $15k the size of 4 x 5m with a roller door and window pedestrian door and lights. This is bargan. It would be the ultimate man cave or retreat. Brick walls and tiles roof included in price. Re: KDR Vantage Mode facade modified 78Oct 22, 2019 9:41 am Macher EricHong Macher Status said it was the best decision he made. $21k sounds like alot.

Still many issues with hebel installation as the guys have not been installing as per instruction on hebel Web site. SS is passing our concerns on to installers.
