A few issues remained plus new defects we found while walking around. SS was reluctant to include new items but knew we were starting to get annoyed so he added them. We are standing strong where we are waiting for EVERYTHING including my handrails before settling lol Second Build, this time with Carlisle 2016, can't wait!

And of course you have to get everything fixed wouldnt they want things to be fixed if it was their home? Keep strong Pearz. Re: Canterbury - Final Stages 386Feb 03, 2017 11:48 am Wow sounds like carlisle are not having a good time at the moment with their homes! I few people in my estate have had issues with them of late and heard that there have been some horror stories in the timbertop estate as well. Lets hope that they can get it back together and continue to build quality homes Re: Canterbury - Final Stages 388Feb 09, 2017 2:03 pm stayxtrue How's it going? Have they fixed everything yet? Getting there... some things are on back order (windows lol) SS seems a little more reasonable right now, not pushing for us to do settlement anymore and knowing we will only be happy when we see the final product... a little win for us as we cracked it with him at our last inspection But whenever we get a chance to sneak around the feeling is so great! can't wait to move in Second Build, this time with Carlisle 2016, can't wait!

It seems we are both in the same boat, just a little more time and we will be enjoying our beautiful homes!! We had a big win with Henley, we got stuffed around for awhile but now with the construction manager overseeing our build, finally things are being done and done the right way! Re: Canterbury - Final Stages 397Feb 24, 2017 8:05 pm PEARZ The Carlisle single? Na it's 2 doors down, so not directly behind Re: Canterbury - Final Stages 398Mar 03, 2017 8:49 am hi PEARZ, I am new to the homeone community. have been recently following this thread and wanted to thank you for your updates on your build. It has been quite insightful and helped with our selection process. We will build the Canterbury 44 in the south east suburbs..ours will be a knock down rebuild. As of this week, we have completed our tender appointment and looking forward to contract on the 20th this month. Are you done with your process? Going by your timelines, I imagine our build could take us through to Jan/Feb 2018..

Yah another Canterbury build, I love the house, it's so big and spacious and I love the floorplan of it... The only thing we should have done was to add an extra shower downstairs... We took 6 months including Xmas break in between. Read everything closely and if unsure ask Carlisle to explain to you until you understand. Also try to be aware of their "Alternatives Solutions" if you can and just know, if you are unhappy on contracts day don't sign, take it home first, ignore what they tell you lol. But apart from that enjoy the ride and if you have any particular queries let me know. Second Build, this time with Carlisle 2016, can't wait!
