Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 21Sep 07, 2009 2:03 pm Been to the site last Saturday, and damn.. the door was locked!! I was looking through the windows and saw the ceiling and floor skirting are all done, internal doors installed, pantry/linen installed. The SS said the painters are coming in this week. Looking forward to seeing everything gets painted, rather than patchy looking walls Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 23Sep 11, 2009 11:35 pm iTalk Every Saturday I go by your house, I see the garage door is open It looks like they're working hard to finish it. We haven't started building ours yet though yeah, they are working hard. Just got an update today that the painters are still work inprogress and will complete by next week. BTW, which builder are u engaged with? Re: Our home..

BTW, which builder are u engaged with? We're going though a small volume builder. They're called 'Creative Mode Homes'. I was there at the land to see what's happening with it, and it looks like that tradies transferred it into a trash area. There are tens of beer cans and bottles. Our next door neighbour is building with Simonds, and the other one hasn't started yet. Our lot number is 1519. Come by and say hi once the house is finished or if you see us around the block. I'll do the same if I see you around Cheers, Khaled Re: Our home..

Have to make sure the land is fence up on settlement. I have seen lotsa sites affected especially if it is left open. For sure will come and say hi when we see you. Heard from the SS the garage door is not in place and the painter was completed. Next week will be tiling... hopefully will handover by mid Oct Re: Our home..

I have not started yet? Is the question directed to me or Alex ? yes it is for Alex wanted to know how he finds creative mode homes Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 31Oct 06, 2009 6:30 pm Well, Alex is not building with Creative Mode Homes, we are. It's been a good experience so far, but there are few things that I need to get sorted out with them. There is another Home1 user who's currently building with them as well. Re: Our home..

We are at painting stage and we can report that to date there is very little to feed back to you about problems. The biggest issue for us has been the site supervisor - he is just so busy it is hard to get hold of him - but once you do he puts your mind at rest. He is a terrific SS and makes sure it all goes to plan. The quality of this builder is second to none and of a superior quality to most we have seen. If you need any questions answered just ask but we think that you are going to love your new house! Did you design your own house or one of CMH's designs? Are you dealing with Anthony? Cheers, Lee Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 34Oct 13, 2009 12:56 pm Thanks for the feedback Lee We haven't had any problems so far. Anthony has been great to deal with. We received our council permit today, so let's hope they start building within the next couple of weeks Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 35Oct 13, 2009 5:16 pm I am sure that they will start quickly now Khaled - they did with ours. The pipes went in a few days after the approval. They need to order everything so they will be doing this for the next few days then before you know it the house will be finished! Good luck with your house build! Re: Our home.. The Caraway 175 from JG King 36Oct 14, 2009 10:15 pm Rowena How's the build going? Any new pics of the tiling etc.? Guys, sorry for the delay. The building process has actually slowed down, probably because they need to get different tradies to do all the finishing touches. Our SS has updated us saying that they will be installing the fly screens and have the renders painted this week. His plans are to get us to do the final inspection by the end of the month before installing the floor boards to the remaining rooms. He is just afraid that people would damage them He would like to get us in the house by the first or second week of Nov. Hopefully everything goes as planned.

The Caraway 175 from JG King 39Oct 16, 2009 11:27 pm Just got a phone call from the SS today to arrange for a final inspection on the 26th. Can you guys let me know what should I be concern during the inspection process? We just don't have a clue on what to look for, probably have to make sure all electrical stuff works, and all doors are functioning.. hmm.. lotsa thinking to do. 1 7894 I would never build with Fowler homes.
