Browse Forums Building A New House Re: KDR - Henley Reserve (MainVue) - Aegean 38 - Stairs 357Feb 07, 2018 7:17 am Hi Rachael. Logging in after a few months’ hiatus. Your house is looking fabulous!! Sucks about all the issues, but good that you are using an independant surveyor to check - we were recommended to do the same and it appears well worth the cost. The poor correspondence seems a bit hit and miss with Henley. I’ve had to complain a few times for poor response times from my customer relationship manager too. Weather forecast for the next few days shows no rain so hopefully they’ll sort out your roof by then. Re: KDR - Henley Reserve (MainVue) - Aegean 38 - Stairs 358Feb 12, 2018 10:04 am Bri1234 The photo's look fantastic. It looks huge. Progressing well by the look of it. Fingers crossed for no rain before they close up the roof again. Yeah Bri - it's scary how large the house is. All I keep thinking is, what have we done, we have to clean this. Progress is getting there but it feels really slow these days, as it just little things that are getting fixed or built.

Issues are getting fixed and the in past few weeks our SS has been calling me every week, which has been wonderful for the updates to be provide by phone. It also gives me the opportunity to ask questions, instead of txting and get responses in the same manner. I really appreciate the direct contact and not relying on txt or portal updates. He offer us to speak with the tiler so that we can see the layout that is planned and see things before the tiles are fixed. This gives me a better peace of mind, as we have tiles that are the same size but different colours so I'm really keen for these to be laid as near perfect as possible. I've seen some horror pics and share this concern with our SS. He has put me at ease for the time being but I'm going to worry right up until they are laid. I have to go by the house later today to see the progress. Where are you at? Is the house demo'd? I'll have to pop over to your page to check it out. I've just been absorbed with work, the build and live in general. Re: KDR - Henley Reserve (MainVue) - Aegean 38 - Stairs 360Feb 12, 2018 10:19 am I've got a this week off on leave, as it's Hubby's Birthday today, so need to be a good wife and cook dinner and bake a cake, as well as do a million other things during this week. I'm also feeling burnt out from work.. So this week is all about doing the things that I love do and one of those is take care of my family, just being a wife and Mum. It's just a shame that Hubby couldn't take the day off but never mind, he'll be spoilt once he gets home. The thing that is going to be really hard, is not to keep detouring past the house to check on progress. I haven't been to the house or past for about a week now, so am very curious on the progress, and hoping that this afternoon I can sneak-in and I'm not locked out again . Oh and we still are not at lock up - last update was that we are about three weeks away from that massive invoice, not that I'm concerned, as this means that the money continues to stay in my bank account and not in Henleys Will provide an update if I can get in......... We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 37085 The biggest challenge will be if you take out a loan and then run out of money - you'll have an incomplete security and lenders do not like this so you can get stuck.… 2 18897 Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes. I am looking for feedback on them from others who have built with them. 0 13437 |
