You can ask them. At the end of the day they are there to assist you. I wonder how many people are checking BSA license history on BSA website. If the builder had any problems before the history will show it all. What BSA does for the us, customers? BSA will inspect the house and make the list of things to be rectified. This will be noted on the builder's license history so builders are fixing things very quickly. I would like to also remaind you that H***** had their license withdrawn due to the problems and they came back to QLD after few years under different name. Cheers kate Re: Is this quality build ? 17Nov 27, 2007 9:31 pm All of you have good points & we value them.
To us infill are meant to fix mistake and degrade the quality that they marketed to us (and others). We made our purchase decision by what we see at the display home and in the contract drawing. (Apart from the size, some colour and additional sliding door our house is identical to the display home.) This home they position it among the top of their range so we would expect good quality. From what I read from the responses you are all agree that a mistake is made somewhere. From our experience so far, the only way to make them fix things is by regulatory compliance and legal means. So we would be very interested in people's success rate going down this path (espcially those with similar issue like ours) and in your opinion how strong our case is ? (you might have to discard builder's moral obligation in your assessment. ) All inputs again will be appreciated. PS: We have had other issues with this builder which we'll start topics on and seek your thoughts separately. So watch out for Ben.

I apologise for misreading and misunderstanding your reply. I was reading too much into Bens question instead of just looking at the gaps. I've had this problem since I became left handed.
