Apparently our block was the only one they couldn't get a clear reading from engineering but they just went by the blocks around us!
We also need to pay an extra 2,500 for temporary fencing, termite protection, permit fees etc so it all seems a little high :/
It's so scary when you've never built before!!
We were told to allow $20k for site costs as we have 3m of fill on our block! Our costs came back at $6K and no piers required as compaction was done well! You never know what will happen!
Which builder did you go with rhiles?? Our builder came back to us last week and they are pretty positive it will be over 20k from the soil tests received from stage 1! :/
Hi M_n_M,
Our builder charging $8000 for foundation and no pier required on as more than 3m fill, because good compaction soil has been filled. Our builder is Leading edge and lot 1059.
