There was a dude handing out flyers with his number on it at a display we visited at the Gold Coast last weekend. I had a chat to him and he also built with big M and has had no end of dramas with cracks, shifting, windows not flush, the list goes on and on. His flyer is asking people to come and visit his "dream" home as opposed to their displays which are always pretty schmik. To cut a long story short they recently offered him $5000 to go away. The damage or poor workmanship alone he reckons is into the tens of thousands. Sorry to hear that you are having dramas too. It makes everyone in todays market even wearier of the big volume builders. I guess that's why we opted for a smaller custom builder to help us with our investment. Hope it all works out for you. Re: Another Santorini 26 by *M*-Dream turning into a NIGHTMA 299Dec 02, 2010 2:36 pm Thanks for all your responses:) It is just ridiculous that we get more warranty on a $50 gadget then on a $300,000 house! I have a $150 guess handbag that started to fray at the 11month mark and i was given a full credit to buy something else. No bl**dy questions asked! After reading Tsurf's post I felt sick to my stomach! Thanks for posting it though cause i do need to aware of what I am dealing with! Hubby had already said that he would go make a pest of himself at head office if they dont come to the party, but doesnt sound like it would do any good!!!

We have a few cracks but they fixed most of them. But I noticed only last week that we have a big one in our kitchen that the plaster is coming away, nothing like yours. I think from memory you aren't far from us. We have done our backyard and front yard and have concrete going right around the house and we still have way more movement than I think for a house that is 9 months old too. When I said my unit never had any cracks and the builder was ******* the supervisor wouldn't answer me and just said it is due to the weather hmmmmmm, I wonder what the quality of materials they are using. Get an inspector in there pronto. Get your husband to go in and demand to speak to a manager and don't leave till one comes down. I would tell him to take his sleeping bag and tent and tell them he will camp out there in their nice office till someone comes and speak to him. I know of someone that did this and he got his problem solved straight away Forum thread viewtopic.php?f=31&t=22300 I use Tramex moisture meter and it will tell me instantly if the wall is cement sheet or plaster or masonite but most people dont have the equipment. 5 7105 the step up is 30mm and wanting it to be flat . how much does the concrete have to be lowered .we plan on removing bath and lenghten shower and adding seat. the old bath… 0 11855 8 6163 |
