What has annoyed me so much today is we are now being slugged another approximately $1500 to move our rainwater tank because they stuffed up the plans and didn't adhere to council restrictions. It's either fork out the money or have the tank visible out of the two family room windows. Again the CSC will ONLY respond to emails. I've given up trying to call. That is ridiculous that you have to fork out $ for their screw up. That is pretty unreasonable. I might just have to suck it up about the induction cooktop. The sales guy said I should push it and ask for why. I'm not being unreasonable am I? Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 10434Aug 28, 2015 5:06 pm MinandB The whole communication thing has been our biggest complaint about the process so far. Bmitchel when I saw ur post about doing the document for them I laughed! We had a variation that they just couldn't get right.we ended up typing up a whole document for them and somehow when they put it back into their form they managed to make mistakes! All they had to do was copy and past but for whatever reason they didn't manage to do it without mistakes! Good luck with urs! And good luck getting any further explanations out of them for costs or why plans change/ don't change! But I will say when u get your file to construction you certainly do get a great sense of relief! Not necessarily satisfaction but definitely relief! Ha I just need to get through these plans etc and then hopefully I can have the relief you talk of. I keep finding things unfortunately and not all at once. Only nit picky things which is good. One thing I want to work out if they can change is I have powder 1 downstairs with a cavity slider. Due to the shower on the left and the cavity sliding on the right, the only place switches can go is across the room on the left side of the vanity. This means you are sliding it all the way open and heading to the right to turn on the light. I've asked if cavity can go on the left so you can then put the light switches straight to the right. It might be a bit of a problem though as the wall on the left is load bearing and probably can't put a cavity slider in there... who knows anyway... See what they say!
