I hope you love living in your NEW HOME! Building a customised Metford 33 with Rawson Homes in Canberra Build thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=76866 Blog: https://canberragalsmetford.wordpress.com/ Re: KDR - Rawson Edge 39 - Ryde - almost done 43Jul 12, 2017 12:01 pm So its been almost a year and whats happened since. Well would you believe all the warranty items have not been completed yet. In March 2017 about half of them were fixed. I haven't been following them up as life and work has been very busy. I will this week. I'll put up some pics of the place now too Re: KDR - Rawson Edge 39 - Ryde - almost done 44Jul 12, 2017 3:23 pm bavshan So its been almost a year and whats happened since.

It's a shame about the outstanding warranty items. Are they big items? Would be great to get a snippet of the list as I'm building with Rawson now and I'm trying to pick up as many things as possible.

Re: KDR - Rawson Edge 39 - Ryde - Completed Sept 2016 47Mar 04, 2018 6:00 am bavshan So in the last month we have had; The alfresco slab cut back to correct size -rework; Fireplace dropped down to correct height -rework; Feature Tiles behind mirrors -major rework, wrong tiles were install then mirrors were install then feature tiles were tiled on top of the wrong tiles. It all had to be remove and resheeted and waterproofed, Brick repointing, still more repointing required, Relocated gas point in alfresco -rework Ensuite window tiling wasnt square -rework; Kitchen powerpoints on wrong walls, -rework and waiting for new splashback; Garage door installed; Some painting defect addressed. More still needed; Creaking floor addressed -rework; Added two more ac vents as per plan; Correct toilet roll holder heights -rework; Correct towel rail in right locations -rework; Some electric work attended too. More still required; Repair to rear sliding door -rework; Outside slab cleaned and mortar free -rework; Bamboo flooring installed. As you can see lots of rework. We have been given the week of the 19th of sept for handover. Lets hope they are close. Rawson Edge 39 MKI in Ryde, Sydney Gday, can I ask what the height of your fireplace is.

We will probably only go the real flame landscape 1000. We will have a 65 inch tv above it which will be wider than the fireplace but hopefully it will still look ok. Did Rawson do it for you. I’d be interested in the price they gave you. They have quoted us 15k as an allowance but you can buy the 1000 for around 7.5k.

We original had the landscape 1000 quoted for around 10k but after looking at the display home in kellyville we saw the 1600 landscape in one of the other Rawson display homes and on that house's inclusion list was the 1600 landscape for 10K. I simple asked my raswon contact at to time to include this option and she did. I also "stole" a few optional extras from other houses. What will you put on the left and right sides on the fireplace?

Hi mate. No building a Chifley 42 mkii. Wow 10k. So that was installed? Don’t suppose you remember which house had the fireplace in it? We were at the Chifley display today and asked when we would need to do the fireplace. They suggested it gets done after hand over. Is that the case? The left and right will be fixed windows either side. 3 6420 Any advice on a builder in NSW who is demanding an extra 22000k after the house is completed and contract paid in full .Standard HIA contract.
