Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Sep 15, 2009 9:35 pm Hi Everyone, We have finally taken the plunge after about 5 years of searching and changing our minds and having more children........ Our design is the Dural by Clarendon and I was just wondering if there was anyone out there on this forum who has an experience with building with Clarendon.

Talk to the council a lot and when you get to build stage pray you get a great SS. Oh yes and dont expect it all to be perfect cause it wont be.Lastly, spend lots of time at Homeone it will keep you laughing good luck Re: Building with Clarendon 3Sep 16, 2009 6:58 pm Thanks for the tips justcamping.
