We're also going to do feature lighting in the courtyard area and in the front of the house which you will need to get provisioned also if its something you're considering. Good luck with it all so exciting! xx We spent close to 2 years in a process with TA. It was horrible..... we got to tender, and the first cut was 50% over our budget which "they care such about meeting ". We… 18 27307 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense.
