Hi Guys,
Just stumbled across this forum and figured I would join up as it seems to be a great place to learn
First time builder -…

I just secured a House and Land package. They say land registration will be in January 2017. Really happy with the block at 606.5 m2. Only went to look at…

We have had the keys for two days now. Retaining wall blocks all laid (for the big side) it's attracting all the neighbours enquiries so we are meeting a lot…

I say definitely go higher. Living in a house with 2.4m ceilings at the moment, went to a house inspection today, ceilings were 2.55 and felt like they were up…

If you look at the number of people in this entire forum, very few have gone with a 2.4m ceiling, with most going for a 2.55 or 2.7m ceiling, I…

We have 31c throughout as standard with our builder which was lucky and upgraded our doors throughout to 2340

We are getting standard, we don't see a problem with having standard, more efficient for heating and cooling. Our last home had high ceilings and we hated it in…

I have always lived in houses with 2.7m ceilings as thats what I parents had.
My house is being built with 2.7 upstairs and 3.3 downstairs. All doors…

We went with 2.58m height in lie of Std 2.4m for about $3k price on new building . I personally preferred it for a look and the doors are std…

Higher. We went 2.7 throughly with 3 in our entrance. You don't have to have the higher doors with a higher ceiling either.

I'm going to 2.7m, but I would recommend at the least going to 2.5m. 2.4m is very low and can affect resale value.

We have 2.55 and love it. Going from 2.4 at our old house, you can really notice the difference that it makes. Don't really like the look of…

Definitely go higher if you can, can't be changed later. We have 2.7 plus a raked roof in the living/kitchen which is 3.6 to 2.7 on our build. Maybe…

I dont blame you either for thinking that. If it is glued on then you would think it will be hard to get it off without ripping the paper…
