Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Coral Homes – Lisbon 25, Hervey Bay / QLD 14Aug 30, 2018 10:40 am bestspecials We spent $7500 on our Grange 25. We put downlights in every room, 4 fans and panel lighting in the garage. We also put downlights in the eaves for the sides of the house, so you can walk down the side at night. There is a copy of our electrical plan on our page - https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=91042 Its good to hear what others spend on their lighting and being able to see other plans, i just had a look at yours. Gives me a lot better idea what i have coming up. Re: Coral Homes – Lisbon 25, Hervey Bay / QLD 15Aug 30, 2018 10:49 am GarethB I am removing all data points in the house and wiring it all myself, i have a cabling license so will save me quite a lot of money as they charge a fortune to wire it up, i have a lot of gear going in with the NBN box running straight in to my cabinet which will be in the garage which will house all my networking equipment. I have jumped the gun and already purchased all my equipment i am installing, 9 security cameras 2 wireless roof mount access points, POE switch, NVR and list goes on to what will be installed.

Insurances may be a key issue here. Re: Coral Homes – Lisbon 25, Hervey Bay / QLD 16Aug 30, 2018 10:52 am I will probably be doing it after its handed over to save any issues, but yes if the time comes and they allow me to do it during the build i will be doing it. I do not live in the area i am building and won't be moving there until it is built so it will more than likely be done by myself after i have moved in up there.

Re: Coral Homes – Lisbon 25, Hervey Bay / QLD 19Aug 31, 2018 7:39 pm So today i managed to pin down a couple of the electricians at work and they gave me some ideas and advice on lighting plan, they said my power points and everything was good but just did some slight changes to lighting and added some additional lighting as well. Also just a couple idea for lights starting to happen, mainly the ones i have found on the forums that i really like. They also suggest some under cabinet strip lighting for the kitchen which i think i will look in to as it looks great in the photos i have seen. Want to be fully prepared before the lighting appointment.

As i work away i couldn't be at the appointment so had to rely on phone calls and photos to be sent while i was at work. All in all in think it came up quite well. Starting from the back. 1. Darker tile for kitchen back splash in herringbone lay. 2. Slighter lighter tile for features in both bathrooms & laundry with brick pattern lay 3. Floor tile. 4. Shower tiles Hopefully it comes up looking great. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Next is color & electrical appointment next week. Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck.
