Browse Forums Building A New House Re: First Build - GJ Gardner - Modified StillWater 252Mar 02, 2017 7:38 am LOL. You have captured the essence of many people's feelings in a few short sentences. Sometimes what the builders promise with their marketing messages and what you really see or get on the ground is worlds apart. And all this with your money. Look around and the forum is filled with screaming customers. It only shows that something needs to change, maybe a consumer watchdog for the building industry is needed. Hang in there buddy and good luck. And keep posting.

The inspector we had was really good and really helpful/nice. Few things to be sorted like hot water and connection for sinks. Tiles have been fixed and some are still to be fixed. The owner popped in also, and was really impressed, think he said it's one of the nicest houses he has made. Hopefully splashback installed today and BBQ. Pics to come Re: First Build - GJ Gardner - Modified StillWater 255Mar 09, 2017 6:08 pm Handover tomorrow morning they still haven't asked for final payment either lol. They asked if I will bring a cheque and I said you guys haven't told me what the final price is yet... They said all good and will get it sorted after handover Blinds are being installed tomorrow and some deliveries on Saturday. Re: First Build - GJ Gardner - Modified StillWater 256Mar 09, 2017 6:52 pm Sounds good are you expecting a shock for the final price or contracted amount? Yay for handover tomorrow!! Are you planning to move stuff in this weekend? Re: First Build - GJ Gardner - Modified StillWater 257Mar 09, 2017 8:11 pm Yay!!! Omg lol. What builder does that?! Haha small win there! - otherwise known as Kym - Re: First Build - GJ Gardner - Modified StillWater 259Mar 23, 2017 12:08 pm Hey Guys, Sorry for delay, been so busy cleaning, unpacking, cleaning, unpacking... more cleaning! Finally settled in, almost everything complete. Our SS quit the other day, so new SS is catching up with the things left to be done. I swear some tradies are plain stupid / careless. Some of things that need to fixed is a joke.. One of the biggest stuff ups was from our blinds company, they made them too short, 2.1 instead of a 2.4 drop for our main living area. So when extended you can see the metal bar. They are being replaced, the poor guy has to come back to replace and reprogram all of them as they are motorized, and apparently a b*tch to configure. The landscaping is a little crap too, had some torrential rain and was like a swimming pool in the backyard!
