Can any one tell me what to do now. How can I build house there. And how can I remove there name from contract latter ? You need to speak to your solicitor for advice as this is a legal matter. Re: Lucas homes 44Apr 27, 2017 6:12 pm Hello, Our company, Winbrook Building Pty Ltd. is currently in the process of completing a home that was started and never completed by Lucas Homes before they went into liquidation. In the process of completing the home for our clients, it was discovered that Lucas Homes did not construct the front facade of the building as per the approved plans. Meaning, that the private certifier now requires amended plans to be submitted to them that reflect what was actually build. My question is, if anyone here has had any contact with the company that used to prepared the architectural documentation for Lucas Homes? If they're still around, and hopefully still have the original files for this particular job? Our clients may be able to engage them again in order to have those plans amended. Short of this, our clients only option is for the whole set of plans to be re-drawn from scratch and re-submitted for approval. A much more costly affair for them. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks! Re: Lucas homes 46Apr 27, 2017 6:33 pm fhb_08 The name of the person that I got contact with back then was Peter Munir Dinkha. He was the design manager at that time. Unfortunately I do not have his personal contact details. Hi, Thanks! Do you know if he worked for Lucas Homes or was he a consultant? Normally, most project builders would outsource their architectural & drafting work. Which is what I am hoping is the case, so that there is a chance who ever did this work, may still be around. Thanks! Re: Lucas homes 48Apr 27, 2017 6:55 pm fhb_08 I don't know. Maybe he was either both. Maybe try looking for him via all channels on the internet and go from there. I have found him through facebook and then Linkedin. And he happens to work now for our Structural Engineer in Liverpool. Small World huh? Thanks for the info and hope your project was finally completed to your satisfaction! Regards, Winbrook Building Pty. Ltd. Re: Lucas homes 49Aug 18, 2017 11:51 am fhb_08 I don't know. Maybe he was either both. Maybe try looking for him via all channels on the internet and go from there. Hey fhb_08, Thanks for your help months ago! I am hoping you can help me again? We have now completed that job for our clients. You would not happen to know who the Structural Engineers were in your home would you? I am hoping it would be the same ones for our client's home. They need to get Structural Engineer's Certification of their slab in order to obtain their Occupation Certificate. Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74708 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
