I've been told I require a minimum of 600mm to best protect the slab? Would that suffice? What's the typical cost? From what I've gathered online it starts off at $70 per sqm? Also trying to get quotes for crushed rock so that I can install artificial grass on top of it myself. What would be a reasonable charge for that? Thanks!

No way you'd get $70/m2 if you're doing like 10m2, but if it's like 200m2 then sure that price might be achievable. Personally I'd go a minimum 1m wide all around the house. Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 354May 06, 2020 6:38 pm Thanks for the input guys. Btw, the drama never ends. Kitchen island has finally been fixed, now they want to charge me probably $2k to fix my chandeliers. They originally installed it as per display house and correctly. After the thieves broke in and stole the lights, they've now installed the new lights very low. So when you're looking from the front of the house you would see two cables instead of chandeliers. How is that even acceptable? Now they are saying they would need to call the electrician down and rent the scaffolding and charge me a variation fee for wanting to shortened the chandelier length. Plus they look so far apart now.

They should have been replaced EXACTLY as they were done originally. I understand that they need the scaff and sparky again, but you're not going to sign off on those! Was it the same sparky that did the first lot?? https://thomasarcherbuild.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html - Thomas Archer Homes - Custom Nouveau 41 Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 356May 14, 2020 11:15 pm Not sure if it's the same sparky. But hopefully they'll fix it cause I'm settling this Tuesday! Woohoo! Finally! Can't wait to move in! Will have some pix up by Wednesday, internet permitting. lol Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 357May 15, 2020 8:33 am Freak_Zombie I love your attitude! Good luck next week. Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 358May 25, 2020 7:14 pm Finally settled and slowly moving in. So much to do! Here's a sneak preview! Unfortunately my carpet is a tiny bit small. But still love the look and the feel Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ TV room Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Kitchen Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Theatre room where they installed half my lights with warm lights and the other half as cool lights. Not sure why they did that since my floorplan says all are supposed to be warm and I don't know who in the world likes to have a combination of cool and warm lights for their home theatre room.
