Re: Building Newport 19 with Coral Homes in Saddlers Ridge 19Jul 03, 2014 9:39 am Very cool cubshome, it must be so exciting seeing the plans for your house come together. Are you getting the Inspirations package? Or the Designer? Can you remember the charge for additional data or electrical ports per port? We like the dark colours for the house too, but I'm starting to get concerned about how hot it would make the house. I'm thinking dark colours wouldn't be very green with the heat they contain, but I don't know if I like anything else What's the standard grout colour?

Hi Mellywil, yeah i'm very excited to see all the details on how the house is going to be constructed. We have the designer package as there are a few inclusions that we don't seem to have the need for from the inspirations package. The designer has tiling and carpets, driveway, letter box, 'b' grade turf to the front and some pretty nice range of available finishes. Yeah we had thought about the heat as well but we are having insulation basically in every wall and roof cavity and we advised during the tendor that we liked the darker colours so the builder can make sure everything works with the Basix requirements. Also where we are building it doesn't get that hot but quite cold so i think we should be fine. i mean i definitely wouldn't have dark colours on a house in north Queensland where I am originally from. My partner and I are very fond of dark chocolate colours and the like very earthy tones but of course you also have to make sure you have some highlights with the darker colours. One thing we might not be able to do is use the wood like grained tiles as they require more labor to lay them and its about i think roughly $44 per m2 extra. Might have to go to Beaumont tiles and decide again They quoted us on an additional 5 data points totaling $728 and they included in the house and land package nbn package #2 that includes the fiber lead in, a hills home hub, 1 data point and one phone point. We originally wanted 13 additional data points so it will be interesting to see how much they will charge us for our original amount. Also we haven't attended the electrical appointment yet so i can't tell you a price for additional power points sorry but i can update everyone when we do. All the information we have on mortar colour is that it says natural colour with rolled/ironed joints. We are having the tile meeting on the 18th so hopefully some more information after then. 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 13771 In Qld it is a requirement that a builder must have a cost breakdown, for building a home to the same specification, with the same inclusions and the same finish. So ask… 1 4342 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74701 |
