Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7545May 21, 2015 11:12 am Lizzy083 Iight487 out of curiosity how many is he managing? I don't know for certain but if I had to guess, it would be around 15 at this stage and likely double that once the estate we are building in gets up to speed. We are part of stage 1in our estate. Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7548May 21, 2015 11:27 am rmjose18 15-20 per SS Yup, that sounds about what I would have expected. I've really only seen his name on the front of the sites under construction in the vicinity of our own. There's no way to tell really. As long as he is communicating with us regularly and promptly, and the project is progressing at an acceptable rate, I'm not too concerned about how many he is actually managing Who's building with Clarendon?? 7549May 21, 2015 11:43 am SJ who was our first supervisor has 28 on his plate. Hence the dramas with our build and he was taken off ours.
Then we got JA and he had 22 when he started on ours. He's had a spate of handovers though in the last week !! Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7550May 21, 2015 12:12 pm emoussa belle_a21 emoussa Heidi re doing work directly with the kitchen people, do u think if I picked a v basic kitchen with Clarendon but went later directly to the kitchen people and completely changed it this would be possible? Emoussa, not sure if it will affect the warranty. I guess you can ask the kitchen people. Btw, we met your lovely husband last week. He said you are expecting #3! When are you due? Hope all this doesn't give you too much stress. Lol! Belle I've 5 more weeks til bubs here. Due the 30th June but As I'm the size of a house ob is advising I go at least a week early. I'd love to start the whole process now but going on past experience I'm going wait til I get part of my baby brain back post birth before I make huge decisions re the house. How's ur house going? Hope Joe was helpful! Emoussa, yes best to do it after the baby. It is too much making decisions now. At least you've got a good head start on researching & changing plans etc. Also, look up "Things you forget" page on the H1 forum. We should have read it before tender/ colours appt. Hubby & I are first time builders. Not sure if you have already built before. Joe was very helpful and gave us good ideas for the back and front yards. I can imagine how busy he is too! Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7551May 21, 2015 12:32 pm Emoussa - I'm 21wks preg with Bub 2 are we u et found out our house should be ready a week before my due date. Sooooo stressed. My SS only text messages updates. No calls. Anyone else's do just that...... Bare minimum Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7552May 21, 2015 12:56 pm I wouldn't mind sms updates when there really isn't anything to update. A quick, "you, brickies are booked in for tomorrow." would suffice at this stage. However, the fact that he always calls every week isn't something to be complaining about Paddington 29 @ Blue Horizon Estate (Lot 105, Wattleridge Crescent, North Kellyville) Our Build Progress Blog: http://light487.wordpress.com/ Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 7554May 21, 2015 2:34 pm That's awesome denot when did you guys start ??
