We are building in clyde north I love the location as I have been using the western port highway of late due to the monash being terrible!

Re: Building Marina Q1 with Henley - South East Melbourne 115Apr 29, 2017 8:09 pm Hi all Need some advice from all your experience . I had fixed site cost with M slab inclusion. Now i have received my soil test report with P class soil . Henley increased my energy rating provision by 2k ( advising i may get a raft slab) Can anyone suggest how much henley may charge for raft slab from M slab ? Dont want to get a big shock !! Re: Building Marina Q1 with Henley - South East Melbourne 116Apr 29, 2017 9:11 pm They won't change the fixed site costs but it may affect 6 star costs if you need a raft slab. Re: Building Marina Q1 with Henley - South East Melbourne 117Apr 29, 2017 9:20 pm cant decide They won't change the fixed site costs but it may affect 6 star costs if you need a raft slab. Thanks cant decide So you meant they wont charge me extra for raft slab ? They ll only charge me for additional 6 star energy rating costs? So confused 😣 Building Marina Q1 with Henley - South East Melbourne 118Apr 29, 2017 10:02 pm Yes if they gave you a price for fixed they won't charge extra for the raft. They have probably already factored this into the fixed price quote. If they haven't it's their bad luck. In your quote it should specify things that are included in your fixed site costs. There are some exclusions for things like footing probes and underpinning if the neighbours have built to the boundary. If you need a raft slab it will probably increase your provision for 6 star but from what I have experienced you might get some or all of this allowance back. Building Marina Q1 with Henley - South East Melbourne 120Apr 29, 2017 10:40 pm Hi Sumit, can't decide is spot on. If your site costs are fixed, that will be the final price. Henley will have to wear any extra costs if they didn't allow for them but they would have covered themselves when working it all out. They've just added the extra 6 star provision incase the raft slab affects the energy report and you don't get a shock later on if it is needed. I got my provision back in full as the report said my house was 6.4 and didn't need anything extra done to it. Just read your attachment and it all looks pretty standard. The two things that you will have as provisions in your tender which is mentioned in your excluded costs will be the re-establishment survey ($885) and the 6 star cost. Anything else and they would have told you about it by now because it would have been added to your tender to accommodate seeing as they have your soil report now Keen to hear from people in the area who have got KDRB done on whom they got the build from? Looking for recommendations. Thanks 0 21119 Hi, can anyone recommend a custom home builder who can build in north east area?
