Renocracking and mistakes 2May 19, 2013 2:37 pm I would definitely contact the builder and ask him to come and look at the issues and then see what he is prepared to do. Was there any warranty on his work? Building the Ascot 35 with Carlisle Homes in Pasadena Estate, Clyde VIC My build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=59776 Re: What is reasonable. Renocracking and mistakes 3May 20, 2013 9:33 am It is normal for a new home or reno to settle. You might end up with a couple of tiny faint cracks but not what your talking about! The dishwasher issues is inexcusable!! 98% of all dishwashers fit into a 600mm space and all kitchen company's and builders know this. For them to install a kitchen with a 580mm dishwasher space is totally wrong and they should fix it straight away at there expense!

Renocracking and mistakes 4May 20, 2013 10:31 pm Thanks for the reply. They have done a good job with lots of the other parts of the reno so I don't really want to cause trouble. To be fair they did build it to fit 60cm but forgot to allow for the skirting(is that what it is called) that goes up the side of the wall as the dishwasher is on the end. End result is the same though. Re: What is reasonable.

End result is the same though. They are professionals and should know that a 30mm filler should be against the wall to allow for the skirting. In total a 630mm space should have been allowed. The mistake is totally unacceptable and should be fixed.
