Hi K-Real, We also wrote an email to the Joint CEO of Metricon last week. Here is what we wrote: Hi XXXX, We are building a Metricon Liberty 45 in Killara NSW 2071. We are two thirds of the way through the build and have identified significant structural defects in the house. Many elements do not c...

I had the Metricon NSW GM and the building manager out to my house, and it was a total waste of time. They just kept sa...

Everyone building with Metricon should take the time to go on their Facebook page, and read all the visitor posts. The quality of workmanship, the ongoing issues, the ****** from management, and the way Metricon customers are treated after handover is despicable. Do not agree to handover until every...

A very disappointing PCI very very poor quality and so many defects that we addressed months ago still not rectified. Where do they draw the line with such an incompetent supervisor and where is this quality that they promise all over their website? I had the exact same thing - I feel your pain. At...

Skirting is supplied on all houses, it’s part of the base price of the home, you’ve already paid for them! If you want to install flooring yourself you can have them delivered and left on site for you to install, or Metricon can paint and tack them on for you so it’s easier to take off for flooring ...
