Telecommunications

When building your new home it is imperative to ensure you cover all possible bases in terms of communications outlets.

The obvious two items to tick off are internet and phone lines, but it isn't always that simple. For example, do you want a phone in your bedroom and kitchen? Perhaps even one in your bathroom in case of emergency? And with the internet there are a couple of options now - will you have wireless or cabled internet? If you are setting up a home office, the most practical option is cabled, so will you have prewired with ethernet cables to allow for this?

With the many hidden options, it pays to do your research and make sure you are prepared for every eventuality, especially at this stage in the build, as rewiring later on will be expensive and damaging to your home.
