We have been charged $593 to do the same for the Capri 26. Ours is a Awning window. We are at the contract stage but haven't signed as yet. Best of Luck moving forward.

Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 45Nov 18, 2019 11:51 am Zara99 On Saturday we went to our Beaumont Tiles appointment, we have spent $2,500 over budget as we are having 600 x 600 tiles throughout the main areas of the house, this came to $900. We only had standard tiles in the laundry and both bathroom floors. I had my eyes set on the marble 'fan' mosaic however for the kitchen splash back it was $2,200 extra so we decided on marble looking tiles as shown below.

Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 47Nov 18, 2019 1:01 pm Zara99 The white to the very left, I don't know if I am set on it as I'm thinking a gloss white would be nice or Vinyl. $2500 is around the same price as national tiles majestic series. Beaumont quoted $4000 for bora Carrara tiles. If I go porcelain and full height tiles in bathrooms, total comes to $8000 My electrical bill came to $9000.. my budget is gone for a toss Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 48Nov 18, 2019 1:13 pm Ahhh Crazy how quick the money goes! Our main floor tiles were in range for the smaller size so we only have to pay the labour for the bigger size and we went the same tile in a smaller size for the laundry & toilet to avoid unnecessary costs.
My boyfriend is an electrician so we aren't doing any upgrades in regards to lighting or electrical just going to get them to install the fans which we will provide. We have budgeted $4000 for electrical which were not likely to go near! Have you got any photos of your tile selections? Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 49Nov 18, 2019 2:53 pm Nice plans ! We walked through the Noosa display in Killara and it's gorgeous. Can't wait to see your progress.

Beaumont quoted us around $2.5k extras and National Tiles quoted us around 3.4k extra, we are more than likely going with National Tiles as I was able to get everything I wanted (Including the Marble Fans I desperately wanted!!). Bare in mind we are not signing any documents until after our colour selection to avoid going over budget!

We had our colour selection on Tuesday this week.. it was really fun to see how our selections go together with the colours until I was provided the upgrades cost around 8 k. 8 K for electricals 6 K for tiles 8 K for colour upgrades Yay!!! Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 53Nov 29, 2019 1:02 pm They don't warn you about the upgrade prices hey, it becomes a big shock! Luckily we've had a look around the colour selections and got our sales guy to price things up so we have a rough idea on costs.

Luckily we've had a look around the colour selections and got our sales guy to price things up so we have a rough idea on costs. I was roughly aware of the costs and we thought we wouldn't go for them.. but on the day we ended up choosing them anyway.. Plantation homes has a online visualizer where you can apply your selections and I found it to be a great tool.. My selections would look something like this.. https://pin.it/jcgnmonvsnlg2m Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 55Dec 10, 2019 11:16 am Zara99 Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Hi All, Last weekend we went to our National Tiles selection, I highly suggest attending both Tile companies as their prices are extremely different!

Hey Zara, were they okay when you told them after the tile selection that you won't be signing the contract yet? We are also hesitant as the site cost increased unexpectedly high and really don't want to blow our budget any further. We have National Tiles appointment today then 2 weeks later Beaumont tiles. Really hoping that we wont have any obligation on the day. Many Thanks, Aggie Building Noosa 23 with Coral Homes. North of Brisbane. Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 56Dec 10, 2019 11:21 am Just say you have the other tile selection to do or you're still waiting on finance approval, don't feel pressured to sign anything! I refuse to sign mine until after the colours appointment to ensure we stay inside our budget, cause we've been shocked by the extra costs also!

I refuse to sign mine until after the colours appointment to ensure we stay inside our budget, cause we've been shocked by the extra costs also! Apparently we are only allowed to attend one or the other, if we choose to go to both N Tiles and B Tiles Coral will charge us $500 consultation fee....So I might going to say waiting on the finance approval Which is actually true Thanks again xxx Building Noosa 23 with Coral Homes. North of Brisbane. Re: Coral Homes - Noosa 23MK11- North Brisbane 58Dec 10, 2019 12:52 pm Are you building with Coral Homes? Because Coral Homes you are allowed to attend and decide which has better variation/pricing and just to let the company we aren''t going with know. I would try and make appointments with both secretly as their pricing is super different! But yes don't let them know about your finance if you're wanting to avoid signing the documents before your other appointments, be in control!

Everything's an upgrade.. having lot of fun I believe if it is stated on the plan then it would be standard, but only with standard finish laminex bench top. I am not an expert and everything is so confusing... Building Noosa 23 with Coral Homes. North of Brisbane. Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 7214 May I ask why you chose not to use GJ Gardiner?
