Re: Custom Builder: MANKO homes and KUBER homes 6Oct 04, 2020 4:05 pm I had a bad experience with Kuber homes when I wanted to have an initial consultation with them. Almost all my phone calls went unanswered and finally someone contacted me to arrange a visit to one of their sites. After that site visit when I tried to contact them over the phone became unreachable again. Just dropped them from my list of shortlisted builders Re: Custom Builder: MANKO homes and KUBER homes 7Oct 31, 2020 6:57 am ![]() ![]() Hello Building community, Has anyone built with custom builders either MANKO or KUBER homes in NSW , SYDNEY?

The reason being that its better to have a recommendation via someone you know rather than a random internet review that you don't always know is real. What we do is get our new clients to talk to 2 or 3 past clients and where possible go and visit some jobs. So ask Manko and Kuber if they gave some past clients you can speak with. That way you should get the truth. Also go visit some of their recent work and even current job sites. If you can view a few of their jobs that are under construction you can generally get a good feel for the quality and organisation skills of a builder by how clean their job site is. But definitely speak to past clients and go and have a look at a few of their completed jobs so you wont just be judging them on their "mates" as references.

Clients are awake to that trick mate, in the old days salesman will give you a mates number to phone, while builders will withhold the number of difficult clients so they don't miss out on a sale. They will also take you to a build when no ones there, become your best friend on Social media and then dump you when you need help. These days on social media Mutual friends and scams are quickly identified and called out,my2c, OT, probably why google got out of Social media with G+ the writing was on the ethernet The reason you don't see much on facebook and Builders websites is builders pay to filter posts and the Battlers are aware LOL, I would say those first time posters requesting information on builders are given the information they want via a PM and never post back ......They also don't add anything further to this community for fear of litigation.

Cheers Chris And these Indian builders have lots of fake references and manko is the one, they play trick their sales guy become a your best friend in a moment, pretending he is letting go of his margin and perhaps you are getting the very best price and inclusions. However actual story starts when you pay deposit and the same sweet guy becomes your boss and starts showing attitude and dumps you off social media and have audacity to intimidate you with bad results if you continue to pester them, Be very CAREFUL especially Indian friends who just sign up for an extra bulk head in inclusion list Re: Custom Builder: MANKO homes and KUBER homes 18Apr 20, 2021 9:31 pm ![]() M also considering Kuber homes . Any review would be greatly appreciated The first and the biggest thing - if you want a peace of mind ,never go with them. The owner / salesperson R****h never picks up phone , is always in a hurry that he has no time and will start counting the cost of bricks , plumber , earth moving etc when you start negotiating the price. No doubts they have done good constructions but custom builders means you get customized designs. Going with them is more like you bring someone's copy of idea , and this guy will add his sauce to it. the idea is to get the work done in the lower cost price - not for you but for him. So he will give you a price initially and then he will start cutting corners , if you want this , bhaiya itne paise lagenge and all such crap.
