Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 3Oct 15, 2008 8:16 pm I love the Yarrabank display at Pakenham, but it was a bit dear for us. We found the info on as-built price totally confusing, and never got a reply back from a later email enquiry.
Great design though. Geoff - Decophile. Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 4Oct 23, 2008 11:00 am Hi,
We are going through the process of building with Rivergum Constructions. We have had a site and survey tests done. They are sending out a sketch this week and we should know site costs etc in a few weeks. Depending on council turnarounds with permits and site costs being "good" then building will probably start it Jan/Feb. We have found them very helpful so far. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Maybe when it all starts I will create a blog. Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 5Oct 23, 2008 11:51 am We've built a custom designed house with RC in Melbourne's northern suburbs. They're pretty good when it comes to attention to detail. Our SS even picked out some faults during our handover inspection which we didn't even notice. Of course those faults were prompty rectified. We've got an excellent cso who responded to our queries promptly during the build process. After sales/handover service was commendable too. Had an issue with the plumbing in the laundry but it was promptly fixed. The build process took a little longer than other volume builders but then again our house was not really off the plans and we had the Xmas break in between. We've heard of horror stories in this forum with other builders and this being our first home, we're glad the build process went by without much hassle. Ed Z. Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 7Oct 24, 2008 8:04 am Yes they do. We are going to build the Mannum 207 with them. Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 8Nov 14, 2008 1:17 pm Hi all,
I'm also going to build with Rivergum constructions. We met with a kind SC and went to Tarneit to visit the display. Before, I planned to contact A#####d homes but they really didn't reply email or whatever. I'm going to build Ascot in Laurimar.

Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 12Oct 15, 2010 2:50 pm Has anyone recently built with Yarra Bank Homes? Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 13Sep 13, 2011 2:44 pm Has any one build with Yarrabank Homes? I am looking to build with them but it seems there is no feedback about this builder even though they have been around for 30 years. Any information will be very helpfull.

Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 15Nov 19, 2012 6:31 pm DONT USE RIVERGUM CONSTRUCTIONS! They are stupid, rude, and ignorant. Re: Yarrabank or Rivergum Constructions anyone? 16Nov 19, 2012 6:38 pm Do not ever use rivergum constructions- they are worse than useless- rude, ignorant of the commonest type of customer service and are just interested in taking your money- then will not contact you again once they have it. You have to chase them - in my own experience for more than 4 weeks before you can even get one of them on the phone. All of a sudden they are 'not available' or 'not in the office' or 'in a meeting' or they simply do not even respond to your texts asking what is going on with your project. I have now been trying to get an answer for 4 WEEKS, and have had NOT EVEN ONE text, phone call, or email from their company, apart from their email alerts telling me what fab customer service they have, and how they are putting their customers first!!! WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!! DO NOT EVER USE THESE PEOPLE. And do your friends a favour if they are ever thinking of building and get them to pick another company- DO NOT USE RIVERGUM CONSTRUCTIONS. EVER.
