Yesterday we went to the house and found our mortar on the back of the house has discoloured to a bright yellow. Looks like someone has done a pee on them. I have now put a stop to construction until MJH come back to me with an acceptable solutions, mine is pulling down the back wall of the house and half the side of the house. Apparently it has been caused when they acid washed the house and it was left on too long before it was washed off therefore the mortar has been 'burnt'. My complaint has been escalated to the Operations Manager and Constructions Manager. The Construction Manager hopes to be on site this afternoon (he is coming back from Goulburn) if not first thing in the morning. I have asked that he meets me at 5pm on site. When will this end It was good to be the first to start to build but looks like we may be the last to finish. At least all of you can look out for these errors with your builds K & J Building Havana 1 McDonald Jones - Brooks Reach NSW Land Deposit 20/1/13 House Deposit paid 27/7/13 Construction Started 23/1/14 Keys Handed over 1/8/14 Re: Building in Brooks Reach - Community Thread 2656Mar 26, 2014 11:17 am Terrible news K + J. Perhaps you could push for them to pay to render or bag and paint the house if that's an option you would consider. McDonald Jones - Bordeaux Two Re: Building in Brooks Reach - Community Thread 2657Mar 26, 2014 11:25 am At the moment I am just in shock that such a reputable company can have such unexperienced contractors when we are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for these houses. Oh the cleaner is on holidays for a couple of days so he will look at it when he gets back......ummmmmmm NO it will be looked at today. Just shows that the contractor couldn't give a .... if that was his response. I have ample photo's and have told them it will be taken further if it isn't fixed the way WE want it fixed. The plumbing was one major stuff up but that isn't visable THE BRICKS ARE!!!!!

Again with this issue, I hope that it gets sorted out the way you want it to be, things like that definitely should not be happening, especially with such a reputable builder.
