Today was our appointment to finalise our electrical aspects of the house. This is something I strongly suggest you thoroughly prepare for BEFORE you go.
We took a copy of our plan and used an app called PHOTOEDITOR (Im sure there are hundreds of different ones) to plan out what we would need/want.
To start with we added everything we wanted, added up the price and then cut out the things we didn't REALLY need.
Here is what our plan looked like before we got to our appointment:

We put in everything included as well as extras we wanted to add on.
In our contracts we were also asked to put aside a budget for our electrical. Our budget was $10 000.
Upon arriving at McJ we were led through our appointment by a lady and I'm not going to lie we felt super rushed. Im not sure if they thought we were super organised or knew exactly what we wanted or whether thats just how the electrical appointments go, but I was so glad we came prepared. It didn't matter too much to us because we knew what we wanted, but I would suggest asking or letting them know if you feel like you would like longer in your appointment to discuss.
The lady didn't really help us when we had questions, she just said "Whatever you think" which is a little frustrating, but it made us quickly make a decision I guess.
We ended up adding a fan in the alfresco and a fan in the master bedroom, as well as an exhaust heat light in the two bathrooms.
