Did they give you a good range of down lights and other options for power points My recollection is there is a range of down lights but clipsal brand. Get only 1 chance. Will cost if changes once left clipsal building . ..need to get it right first time. All clipsal Power and light switches to choose from. ..off course upgrade from standard will cost extra.

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).
