Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 688Jul 14, 2014 9:48 am Hey all Scaffolding should hopefully be coming down this week as the eaves on the top floor and downpipes were painted over the weekend. The roof on the ground level and the cladding upstairs should also get completed this week. Another week or two before gyprock gets put in. Hills, I would definitely insist on liquidated damages. We didn't and although it could be completely coincidental our house started a few weeks after some of the peeps on this forum and we're lagging behind quite considerably in comparison (e.g Upsize and Mars started early march I believe and us towards the end of the month and we only have half a roof) Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 690Jul 15, 2014 10:43 am joandandy Hi all - with the bamboo flooring is that an upgrade or included in the price. If so how much more are we talking??? Bamboo is an upgrade, but not that much at all - $1.35K for Glenleigh 36. Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 691Jul 15, 2014 11:41 am Returntoshire is that price based on just changing the "tiled" areas to timber or all the carpeted areas aswell such as bedrooms? Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 694Jul 15, 2014 1:50 pm Thanks mars78. I would love to see a photo of your home when it is finished. I am so happy I have joined this thread. It is really helping me make a lot of choices for our home. Have a look at Kurmond's Facebook - Sierra hand over the other day with photos. Again it makes you look at how you would do things differently with colouring. Very interesting! Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 695Jul 15, 2014 3:20 pm Joandandy I just saw the Facebook pics today of that Spring Farm Sierra. Colour choice are very interesting indeed! Luckily ours seem to have turned out well. We got our practical completion letter, so our first walk through will be next week. Just driveway, flooring and door furniture remains!! Re: Building with Kurmond Homes 696Jul 15, 2014 9:03 pm Wow, practical completion letter, exciting. Yours is fast, I guess that's the difference with 2 storey and Single. Not sure how we are going. Hoping to meet supervisor this week to go through the pre paint walk through.

Just the tiled areas. Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 75332 I would never build with Fowler homes.
