Hi all,
I was advised by the council to do the following for a duplex building.
council stormwater engineer had recommended the following steps to be taken by the builder;
? Ensure that the proposed driveway crossing complies with Council?s standard profile ASD208 (including freeboard above top of kerb).
? Provide freeboard to habitable floor levels above the top of the swale (300mm)
To which the builder gave me a quote of $20,500 (+20% builders margin) as give below.
Building area is around 300sqm and I was under the impression that simply land could be filled to raise the level by 300mm which would not cost much.
Do you think the builder is trying to pull a fast one on me?
