Right now water is leaking into my master bedroom on the second floor. God knows what further damage is taking place. We definitely cannot move in. We are so upset right now. Later this morning I'll post the email I sent to Montgomery Homes last night if I haven't heard back from them.

That is devastating ![]() I hope they sort themselves out for you soon and get on top of that before some serious damage is done so you can move in!

If they don't reply soon, get trades in to fix the defects before more damage is done and invoice Montgomery! Joey (8 Dunsyre Av.)

I'm not sure but S* from Montgomery Homes said they would fix it to new standard, starting Monday 10 Jan. Not a single tradie has been to my house this week. We are devastated.

I feel an uprising of Team Unicorn on the brink! Everyone book in an RDO so we can storm the Montgomery offices and drag them to D-100's house!! Joey (8 Dunsyre Av.) Re: Building at Northlakes Estate- Cameron park 2588Jan 15, 2016 6:54 am Thanks Mem, Joey and Benji for your support! If i don't hear back from Mongomery Homes this morning i'll give fair trading a call. Great idea. Originally I called our home insurer (NAB - Alliance) who were happy to deal with it, however I turned them off because Montgomery Homes told me they will fix it. It happened two weeks after house handover - obviosuly the builder needs to fix it. I can turn the insurance back on if required. We are most worried about further damage now, espeically to our after-build add-ons; elctricial, shutters, wooden floors etc. Luckily we had not yet had the carpet laid in the master bedroom. Re: Building at Northlakes Estate- Cameron park 2589Jan 15, 2016 7:01 am I had a leak as well which ended up being a broken roof tile. Builder didn't want to know as I had Jim's Antennas up there and I couldn't prove it wasn't them that broke the tile. Have you had anyone on the roof?

No one but Montgomery Homes have been on my roof so far. In fact they attempted to fix the leak on Christmas eve, which was great, but it didn't hold, and i notified them of the contiued leaking water on 6 January. Re: Building at Northlakes Estate- Cameron park 2591Jan 15, 2016 8:14 am Update: Montgomery Homes are heading out to investigate the leak this morning. They have stated they sent a plumber mid-week to fix the leak. He obviously failed to seal the leak, or he didn’t turn up at all; I didn’t see anyone on my roof and I’ve been there half of the week. Did anyone here see someone on the roof of 3 Dunsyre during the week?

Information just in: the leak has made its way downstairs into the Rumpus; thanks for not responding to our requests over the past weeks Montgomery Homes?!?!? ![]() Re: Building at Northlakes Estate- Cameron park 2593Jan 15, 2016 11:16 am Argh I'm so frustrated for you! It's once thing to have an issue but it's the crappy way they have dealt with it which makes me even more angry for you! On a happier note I love what you've done so far inside. The stairwell pendant is amazeballs, I bet it looks awesome at night. I've had my eye on the wooden pendant I'm guess is for over your dining room too.
