I'm so sorry it was such a long process. Hi there, sad to say it has been a nightmare with them and never would I recommend them to anyone. We went into construction Feb 2015 but slab was only poured in May. There were a few rain events that made the ground difficult which I agreed so no blames there. From May onwards we had fine weather and up to now our house have not finished construction. We were hoping to move in before Christmas and we should have. Come mid Dec, it would have been 7 months. Now it is expected to finish Feb 2016 just because they will be shut a month for holidays. They have been so slow that even my bank have given me numerous calls to find out about progress payments. And that is bad. This builder lacks the urgency and the site supervisor/ manager lacks the experience. Their personnel turnover is high from what I have heard and experienced with site supervision. It really has been disappointing. Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear of this. Sorry for the delay in responding. I hope by now you are in your home and it was all worth it A survey must’ve completed by a certified surveyor. This form part of every DA requirement 3 223465 Wish you all the best. Once you signed the contract, they will find millions excuses to charge you. And have seen their sites unfinished for a long time. 4 24721 wondering anyone built with omaxe homes and care to share their experiences. thanks 0 13782 |
