Browse Forums Building A New House 1 May 23, 2009 7:41 pm Hi all, a newbie here but I have been reading and learning from you all for awhile. Ive bought a block in Bertram (SOR, WA) and was wondering if anyone is building with summit or easystart. I havent seen anything on them so far, and would be interested to know your experiences. Mine have been all good so far, but it is still early days. Re: anyone bulding with summit/ easystart? 2May 23, 2009 8:26 pm We're building with Summit for the 2nd time. Only problems we had last time was wrong security screens installed which took 3 months, lots of phone calls & mentioning BIL is a solicitor to get them replaced. Building the westport in Piara Waters this time. Hoping for slab down end of next month.

Our design is similar to the Grande Vista - I think it was called something else when we built, and we went to Bunbury to look at the display. Most of the problems we had were boom related - waiting on colorbond, tradies, brick shortages, having to change pavers or face delays to due to shortages. We found Summit to be reasonable. They even admitted to making a mistake on our plan, due to estate design guidelines (which we'd provided to them to draw up our plans) and fixed it at their cost. We would've built with them again this time, but they don't build where we've bought Re: anyone bulding with summit/ easystart? 6Jun 06, 2009 9:49 pm Hi Shan! I'm building in Bertram but missed your thread until now. Are you in Belgravia Central? I can PM you and tell you where my land is if you like - we could be neighbours!
