yep. Approx 6-8 weeks, maybe 10-12 if transportation is over a long distance, if you contracted more than one builder because they’re limited by capacity usually. They’d have to be purely focused on only that project for that length of time. (All According to top of the head calculations by a builder mate.)

Though that’s not accounting for Australian exceptionalism and government inefficiencies...

Overall cost to do one of Howard springs size probably less to the economy than a single 3 day lockdown for a capital city.
