Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Any experiences with Firstyle homes 331Sep 27, 2017 2:22 pm wazzabrown4 Has anyone selected a hills hub or similar installation in the garage at their electrical appointment? If so what sort of cost am I looking at. Hi Shouldn't you receive a breakdown from clipsal. Alternatively from firstyle? Re: Any experiences with Firstyle homes 332Sep 30, 2017 3:08 pm I haven’t had electrical appointment yet. Yes you should receive a breakdown price however hills home hub is not a Clipsal product that why I was asking, also does a downlight provision mean that you will receive a lighting socket outlet to plug your future downlight into??

Have been to clipsal but no one asked us at appt about hdu. I'm hoping it's covered by wiring package that i paid fs but not so sure now ...and if covered it would be clipsal brand. Re. Downlight provision. will be wired with batten holder that you can get replace for downlight later.

Thanks we will keep that in mind we are now progressing to head office stage so hopefully by late this year Clipsal stuff will get done Re: Any experiences with Firstyle homes 338Oct 23, 2017 10:41 am Hey all, I was just wondering about the process for getting the house financed. Our Mortgage Broker has asked us to get the final building contract for our bank (we are still at tender stage but land has now registered). I spoke to my SC, and he said that colour choices come after the final building contract. I worry that our colour / electrical changes will not be included in the building mortgage. is this the case in your experiences?

The building contract will list the base cost of your build only though and not include the cost of any variation upgrades you do through colours appointment & Clipsal.
