Lucky you only lost $1,000 not to mention their work is terrible! chrispowell We engaged Hallbury Homes to quote our custom design home with detailed plans & specifications from our architect. To do this we unreservedly signed an agreement for Hallbury to tender building our home and paid a $1,000 fee. I did so under the impression that a professional business like Hallbury Homes would as they stated in their correspondence "prepare a detailed tender for construction of your project and will ask the sales rep to confirm his availability to present this to you" based on the scope of work items listed below: • conduct a site inspection • obtain site information relating to the title and planning scheme • analyse supplied floor plans, site and soil reports, planning permits and engineering • structural analysis • feasibility study and quantity survey. • establish your specifications and inclusions • prepare a Preliminary Cost Estimate confirming all inclusions and Estimated Build Pricing What we ACTUALLY got was a rushed half-baked quote lacking in detail, not following the building specifications and a salesman who had never seen the job details before and therefore completely unable to present anything of value too us. Several factors have made me concerned that the latter has occurred. The lack of contact (1 month delay in getting a response from anyone at Hallbury after paying the $1000), the minimal details availed to us, and the admission from the Sales rep himself that he did not know the details of the quote nor the project (which was the complete opposite to why we paid the $1000!!!) as well as admitting verbally that "Hallbury Homes had not done a good enough job and you should be receiving a full refund", all point to the fact that I have not obtained what I paid for. The meeting with the sales rep was certainly the most disappointing given the hour to drive to the meeting and for him to tell us after 5 minutes verbally "probably best you chose the other builder you are working with" which led him to suggest the full refund. When the $1000 was paid, an expectation is set given what the scope of works listed, unfortunately this was certainly not delivered. I couldn't attached the photo for some reason.
