Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 123Nov 16, 2017 5:22 pm Yes! Let’s focus on some positives! We’re building withy Metricon. Very excited to soon see all our choice come together. Sounds like most people have gone double storey? Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 125Nov 16, 2017 5:42 pm I feel like my hardest choice is going to become our landscaping 😂 such a hard decision that makes such a difference to the house. Doing a lot ourselves though so we(me) have all the input Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 127Nov 17, 2017 8:03 am A double story on our end too. Metricon being the builder. We initially had our eyes set on a single story but because of the small sized plots of land, we went with a double to gain more space inside (and out) Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 129Nov 17, 2017 11:10 am Has anyone heard anything lately? any dates given for handover? Are they actually getting rid of this contractor and going to complete the works themselves? Thanks guys Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 131Nov 17, 2017 11:48 am So they can’t get rid of them completely but they have taken legal steps to remove the asphalting from their contract so they can get other contractors in just for the asphalt. Luckily Duncan from moremac has used his industry contacts to source a sub station but the current contracts will be in charge of installing it. Hopefully this will give them the kick to just just get things finished and be done with us Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 132Nov 20, 2017 11:25 am Just got this update guys... it’s postice news We now have in our possession the substation, and this will be installed this week. Given the contractor did not complete the asphalt works last week (as promised!) we have removed these works from them and are in the process of terminating the contract. I am just awaiting an indication from the asphalt company who are trying to shuffle a few other jobs around to get this done as soon as possible, before I advise and provide a formal update (hopefully on Wednesday). Given we are removing the contractor and will then have direct control over the works - I am hoping to have all outstanding works completed in about 2-3 weeks (but this is dependent on the asphalt). I will be in touch in a few days Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 137Nov 30, 2017 9:44 am Hey Guys! just had a call from the wife, the asphalt as commenced! i think they started yesterday, and with the torrential rain scheduled for tomorrow she reckons they might be trying to get it done today..unsure though! but yay its started!!!
