Have you got a house or floor plan in mind? An option could be to step the floor down in those rooms which are on the lower side. The bonus would be that you get a higher ceiling so it could kill two birds with one stone. Which lot/house have you purchased? Re: Building At Edmondson Park 3228Nov 30, 2016 6:37 pm My sis is building in edmondson park she had a bit of a slope and Metricon homes charged her 7000 for drop edge beams but no retaining wall was required how bad is your slop? I have recently put a deposit on a land that has about 1 meter slop towards the rear of the house so i went to builders to see what it will cost me ..they said about retaining wall if its more than half a meter it gets expensive as it needs to b enginered i hope this helps Re: Building At Edmondson Park 3230Dec 01, 2016 6:35 am thx everyone for the comments, i will check with csb then how high the retaining wall need to be if we go with this option. re step down, guess its too late now as cdc has been approved, if only they communicated this earlier prior . the retaining wall or Drop EB needed on the right side of the house 13m length. Also retaining wall option will be our own arrangement i m on lot 23 btw.

Everyone on the ridge has to pay for the drop edge beam that is council requirement after land registration on 5th of sep. Re: Building At Edmondson Park 3232Dec 02, 2016 9:44 am CSBEN hi everyone i was wondering if any of u building at the ridge edmondson park? with CSB ? i also like to get in touch with owner 3 steenson street also by CSB. If you guys are around in this forum pls pm me We just receive an extra site cost for drop edge beam for $7200plus gst.. anyone has got the same experience? the other solution is to build retaining wall along the side of the house but not sure if would cost the same or cheaper.. any thought is apprciated Your best bet is to probably go with the drop edge beam. Depending on the materiel used, how high etc and of course labour, retaining walls could cost you more than that. I paid over 5k for mine along my side boundary but it was only 2 sleepers high and timber. If it was block, would have cost me 7-8k. $395 Fixed Priced Landscape Plans for DA M: 0435 127 244 | W: bluegumdesign.com.au | E: info@bluegumdesign.com.au Residential | Commercial | Industrial Re: Building At Edmondson Park 3234Dec 03, 2016 6:16 pm I've used my drone to video a flyover of Village Square and The Ridge this afternoon and uploaded this onto YouTube.
