If your budget allows I would advice to have your portico/alfresco slab poured at the same time(as it's one slab,which would be stronger and include the termite barrier around entire slab). I'll post the electrical prices I have this afternoon it's a long list. My advice would be to have your appointment with clipsal in person,as our consultant "Connie", was excellent,and she helped us save money in some areas,eg: places we could use less downlights with higher wattage. With your colour selections my advice is to go to bunnings and look at the dulux paints,laminex,ceasarstone, write a list of everything that you want and get quotes included,it's easier to deleted items that have been quoted,than to add additional items,don't let the colour consultant hurry you. If you really want something,remember it's your house stick to your guns. Our colour selection experience wasn't the best,we felt rushed,luckily we knew pretty much what we wanted,even though there were some items that we wanted but weren't asked about,it was tick and flick. Julie Oh ok, we saw some downlight kits at bunnings for about $120 for 10 of them being LED as well and i think it will be cheaper to buy them and just get coral to install them. Unfortunately we can not do the clipsal appointment in person as we are too far away from the closest place. Our alfresco is included with the slab so we just assumed that our portico came with one and we just double checked the tender and it says the portico slab is not included so we might see if we can get the portico poured at the same time as it should be a lot cheaper to do it when the slab is being poured. Yeah we might head into bunnings this weekend and have a look at some pendant lights and some others to install after hand over instead of the bayonet fittings. might have a browse through beacon lighting as well. We were given some gift vouchers for bunnings so we went and purchased 6 fans for them to install We are hopefully going to sit down and plan out a few things on the weekend for the electrical appointment on monday. Is there any chance you have that list of what you upgraded or received from coral for your electricals? just so we can compare or maybe get some ideas?

Owner supplied downlight installs cost $78 per light. Pretty expensive. So $130 for supplied light + install isn't a bad cost. Be aware of this. Pendant lights are by quote only due to the difficulties in installing some of them. IE a $10k chandelier will cost a lot to install as it will be more complex, possibly weigh to much and need additional bracing and will take the electrician more time to install. For costs, check out my post here: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58664&start=40 I listed some of what i was charged by Clipsal.
