Elemental 0 Report post Posted November 29, 2007 Mine is also 4rm premium at compassvale link... I think we are staying at the same place !!I'm having very extensive electrical works, many downlights and cove lights... and my designer only quoted me $2500 ALL in, inclusive of 40+ power points, all concealed. But of course that's because it's part of package price of my whole reno, which is about $29k.So er... I think this guy sees a carrot head in you... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted November 29, 2007 conceal means they hack the wall and hide the wires inside before plastering back the affected areaanything else is calculated inside the price i.e. casingcan't be letting the wires all hang loose right?your first statement is as right as can be - it's RIDICULOUS !! !!
