Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 365Dec 08, 2017 6:12 pm My dishwasher and microwave are not in. Is that normal? @Madora Dreamer Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 366Dec 08, 2017 6:13 pm CalleyaBuild I told them 1st of December back in early october I told them 1st December back in early September!! I am really unimpressed! And last week I rang about the landscaping twice and left messages to be rung back to organise an appointment. Guess what! No return phone call. Very, very unimpressed!

My guess is they will install them at the very last opportunity to avoid them being stolen. @Madora Dreamer Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 369Dec 08, 2017 6:17 pm CalleyaBuild Haha in the last few weeks I've become very good at harassing people until I get what I want! LOL! Me too! It is a fine line between being forceful and being obnoxious and I think I am leaning towards the latter more and more lately! But if they'd just do what they say they will do there would be no problems. Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 370Dec 11, 2017 2:26 pm So apparently my fence WILL be installed this week. I will believe it when I see it! New bins delivered this morning. Security screens for the back of the house (to comply with pool fencing regulations) organised this morning. Will be installed early January. Temporary fencing for pool will be delivered next week. Pool goes in on the 5th January. PCI tomorrow morning at 7.30am. And the bank will be doing their inspection tomorrow too, then funds should be released immediately. Handover later this week is looking promising!

Some very minor things to be fixed (small marks on paint, some external drains that need lifting slightly to be level with the paving etc). No surprises which is how I like it at this stage of the game! Bank valuer will be going through the house today. Expecting funds to be released either tonight or tomorrow. As soon as that is done we will be picking up the keys! So VERY VERY excited! Moving in this weekend. Will have been almost exactly 5 months to the day between commencement of earthworks and handing over of keys. You done good, HGWA!!

I finally get my keys today, 11 working days after PCI... We were in the construction stage for 7 months. But at least they have rectified the issues (nothing major) that our external inspector picked up at PCI. The rest of our fencing should be done tomorrow and landscaping appointment booked in for nearly next week. All the best with the move. See you round the neighbour.

Apparently my fencing will be done by the end of this week. Although I have been hearing the same thing for the last 5 weeks so not holding my breath! Re: HGWA in Calleya Estate 377Dec 12, 2017 1:19 pm J278 5 months is super fast! You must be really happy with that. How have you found the workmanship? Is it up to the quality you expected? Most definitely pleased! HGWA are notoriously slow with the admin process, but cannot fault their build quality and times. Everything happened pretty much exactly as they said it would. And the true test of a builder... when there was a problem with our island bench they bent over backwards to get it fixed to our satisfaction and in a very timely manner. Would recommend them for sure. HGWA in Calleya Estate 378Dec 12, 2017 1:31 pm Mrsxtro01 J278 5 months is super fast! You must be really happy with that. How have you found the workmanship?

Would recommend them for sure. That has been my experience so far too. My partner and I have remained so skeptical along the way just like people do with car salesmen. For no good reason either haha I feel like we’re in good hands, and it’s good to see how well they built your house.
