MyHomeoneThread Our Oxford22 Blog Re: The CARLISLE HOMES & SPECTRA General Information Thread 757Mar 02, 2010 6:34 pm We received our contract on Friday, well before our signing meeting. I have issues with the build quality and specifications. Did anyone have any issues with signing the building contract with clauses regarding the build specifications. I have issues with comments about the toilet can be 100mm offset from the centre of the room regardless of how the display home is built! This is crazy. The frame build tolerance does not meet the building code of Australia, they state "there can be minimal walls that are off vertical by 15mm. Building code spec is 4mm for 2m high wall, so for 2.6m wall it would be in the order of 5mm. Has anyone approached Carlisle about this? Carlisle praise themselves on building a good quality home,and they state they will build it to the same quality as the display and change there mind with regard to this statement throughout the building specs. Re: The CARLISLE HOMES & SPECTRA General Information Thread 758Mar 02, 2010 6:37 pm It is official !! Contracts signed (finally) We started with JG King, then went to Henley, and ended up signing with Carlisle. Land is Titled. Finance is in place. Building Permit issued. Seems like we will have a Site Start in new couple of days. Can't believe Carlisle Homes: Really happy with the way things have gone so far. Hope the experience stays good !!

Cannot wait until the brick work goes on it feels like things are moving fast but I do expect them to slow down over the next a few weeks once construction moves indoors.
