I hope it is the soil test. Is it not it be included in the site costs? Any idea on from where I could get it or suggestion for any company in Sydney? Allworth won't do soil test/geo tech report, if you don't have then ask your developer/ land sales office to get a copy of report.

So it might be something I need to pay extra. Not sure how much. developer does not do tests for individual lots and not sure the test for whole area will be applicable for my lot. But its a good idea to ask them which I will do. Re: Who is building with Allworth Homes 1095Mar 05, 2015 1:48 pm mel+rob Hi Gaggy, Ring your solicitor or conveyancer. They should be able to contact the land developer & request it for you. My conveyancer did it for me. Thanks Mel. Did they charge you for this? I have not even the recent certificate 149 from my solicitor. Re: Who is building with Allworth Homes 1096Mar 05, 2015 2:19 pm No our land developer did a geotec report & they gave us a copy. It was between 2 blocks but all the land they sold came back with m classification.

Landcom has replied back that they cannot provide it and they have supplied it to council and I need to contact the them for this Landcom has stated that it is their policy that they do not provide this document. Also is it something we have to provide them or Allworth should get it from council or developer themselves? Not sure what will they do if we are providing them everything from the developer or council. Re: Who is building with Allworth Homes 1098Mar 05, 2015 8:31 pm macs Hi there, just wondering who told you your handover date? Our plasterers have finished, water proofing done. And think cornicing grtting done today i think. You must be so ecxited! We questioned the extensions to the contract we'd been given and got a letter stating why we'd been given the contract extensions and had in the letter outlined dates. We had waterproofing done yesterday and plastering and cornices done earlier this week. I might guess you would be looking around the same time. =) Nel.B Building the Serenade with Allworth Homes Blog: http://allworthserenadeatchisholm.blogspot.com.au/ Re: Who is building with Allworth Homes 1099Mar 05, 2015 8:35 pm mel+rob kellys-new-home, Does your supervisor contact you? The only time I hear from mine is when I ring him. If I were you I would ring & find out what is happening. Congrats to everyone's progress so far. Nel you must be so happy. I think you will have the key sooner than their estimate. Our update the bricks are finished & cleaned except for the bottom, the eaves, downpipes are done & are painted. Looks like the scaffolding will come down soon. The electricians have been in. I'm going to contact my ss to get an update & also ask for a walk through. I'm dying to see what the top floor looks like. The only time I hear from my SS is when I ring him too. I've made a deal with him that I'll ring him every Friday morning to see what's happening the next week.

If not you will probably have to pay to get one done. Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74757 I would never build with Fowler homes.
