You need to get someone assess how kind of reinforcements are needed, what kind of stairs and how much work do you need to spruce up the roof.. Very variable...

You best look for professionals to do the cabling. Look up a company called BTO cabling for example. BTW, hiding your router in the cupboard will decrease it's effective usable range.

I'm using Techno stuff, and I'm satisfied with their items. Got them on sale at a very good price and my builder did all the installations - very straightforward and swift. I'm glad you got all your stuff installed and perhaps you may want to ask your ID / contractor for assistance in future. I find that the job based contractors can be less predictable and if timing is very important, maybe in future you can hire your own people.. things are pretty unpredictable right now. All the best with your new home.

That’s quite easily done There are many choices of material, including synthetic wood. Talk to a contractor and see..

Try alumix? Or ximula? Pretty nice designs

If you’re willing to pay for credit card charges probably .. not willing? You’re out of luck I suspect.. any contractor who uses visa will also work that charge in and you still end up paying..

Nice How much did you spend ?

Leaking roofs are hard to deal with you may end up having to redo the whole roof ..

Yep probably be simply and more time efficient to replace the whole thing .. looks grotty and old anyway ?

Actually he was the most reasonably priced and did a good job i had some staff discounts so I was keen to get certain items myself ?

Interesting.. My builder imposed no charges when I bought my own lights and sanitary fittings... but I paid for the utility bill.. Thanks for the info

Try Lazada get a sturdy one, six steps at least..

? if not for your contribution this will simply be a forum populated by these bots.. ironically they can post links and long posts and we can’t .. where’s the mod???

Can't recall, but they were quite reasonable. You can ask them.

I wonder how many homes come with three phase, and how many are single phase...

I've use KNT movers thrice, no fuss and they work fast. Elastic about the number of boxes too.

Bear in mind that water that comes from the roof can be pretty dusty so use sufficiently large caliber pipes.. A pool is a nice place to keep all that water ?

Why not keep some for a rainy day? Literally..

Thanks for that, I think that would fit my definition of better.. I've always been advised to go for 3 phase 63A, best of both worlds and no annual inspection..

Will be interesting to know which is better: three phase 63 or single phase 100 ..

Very very wise thumbs up! Likewise I have phone points too in case..

I don't know if my Google Mesh is enterprise, but it allows "Ethernet Backhaul" if the term is correct. So I don't need line of sight. I use one on each floor, situated at the landing of the stairs so it is right in the middle of the house. I get 3-400 mps on my handheld devices in the rooms with the doors closed more than 5m away, higher on desktop devices. So I'm a firm believer of this. Just put enough LAN points in your new home. At least one in each room with a power point nearby as a minimum. Like I said, we can't post links here, otherwise see my previous post Eric. Mesh works well esp with backhaul.

I would add LAN - minimum one point per room, but more in areas like the living room, den, and don't forget one in the front and rear porch... False ceiling allows you lighting options... but do fix your fan on a hard point. BTW, they will charge more for fans that aren't fixed to a concrete ceiling. +1 on the painting. Re paint the place. You won't regret it. I think you must budget enough and not go too tight... have a realistic budget, unless you are only living there for like a couple of years..
