Re: Found out raised bathroom at completion stage.Building A New House

A cheaper option to fix the steps into the wet areas is to ramp up the floors leading into them gradually if practical. The reason for the different heights is probably the room design and the gradient of falls, but most would use the same height angle as doorways regardless of design. Cost to fix ...
I wish I knew that before the build. They did not let us choose the materials before the DA approval. They initiated al...

The head appears to sag, but if the door opens without rubbing then this is not the problem. Ask the supervisor he may know the reason. Alright, thanks. I will have a look. But the supervisor seems hopeless and doesn’t care much. ask to speak to the building manager Yes I will try to speak to the m...

I find that all Franchise Style Building companies like GJ Gardner, Hotondo etc always have good and many reviews on all these sites compared to any other stand alone Builders as they are just Marketing Companies at the end of the day, thats just my personal opinion.

Also if I want it fixed. How much do you think it’s going to cost?

Power points issues with height in bathroomsBuilding A New House

Jan 16, 2021 12:03 am
Has anyone seen a power point that high in the middles? Initially I have two power points on the sides , the sinks should move towards the centre a bit so I can fit two individual mirrors in the middle of both sinks. I have evidence of message them that’s what I want before they did the fitting for ...

I had a similar problem with uneven spacing (aluminium powdercoated) but not as bad as yours. They agreed it was wrong it took them 3 deliveries and 3 new railings to get it right. Oh really!! Thank God that you told me it’s wrong. I argue with them and end up the builder ignores my emails.

Since the build started and almost on completion. One of the big sliding door glass cracked 3 times that I noticed with. And the final stage with painting I don’t think the painters would crack it right? I did not see any tall ladder they are using. So I am now worried that it has problem of the ins...

I have chosen option G for my balcony balustrade. But when they installed it I found them unevenly spaced. I asked the supervisor he said they need to do it according to the length of the balcony and the position of the thicker posts through out. I just think it’s wrong as they just miscalculated th...

Majority of Builders Do Not recess their slabs to accommodate a flush finish to wet areas unless the customer upgrades for this. A small step up is a standard feature on most builders houses. Display homes are always fitted out with extras & upgrades and nothing should be assumed to be included...
Yea and the problem is we don’t have a full upgraded list that we can choose from. I am not sure with a bigger project ...

Builder ? Plans? Difficult to confirm without knowing these details. Hobbless bathrooms are not standard inclusions anyways It was Gj Gardner at the start then they quit the franchise and become a private builder (LTK HOME). GJ Gardner do not have many display homes and they don’t have the floor pl...

I’m so angry to find out that all 3 bathrooms of my new built has a step to them. No one explained to me it will be raised because when I see the display home there were no steps. So I think it is a standard. Then the supervisor told me when they tiling that it is a must to avoid water coming out. B...
