Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13250Feb 01, 2017 7:27 pm Yay sandra 2016! Hubby managed to have a look around our place today. Plumbing nearly complete, garage door is on, water tank to be installed Friday, so looking good for PCI next Wednesday. Looks like our SS has already been through as there are bits of blue tape everywhere! Mainly on the paint job which we are already disappointed with but as I have said to my husband, the more blue tape the better, it means he is picking up on things on top of what we might see! Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13253Feb 01, 2017 7:58 pm Congratulations Rox82 - Baby Hannah is just gorgeous. Fingers crossed the building gets cracking. mrs_jd - Whereabouts/what council are you building in? We are building a dual occupancy (house + fully detached larger granny flat) in Lake Macquarie Council. We considered including the 3 gorgeous skylights shown in the display home of the house we are building (Harmony Elite), but the price of them on top of the raked ceiling was too much. I think we told they'd be around $6000 for the 3 velux skylights ... this was about 18 months ago. Pleased to hear your update Fisher75, but sorry to hear of more issues. Well done Sandra2016 on handover date #countingdownthedays Looking forward to hearing about your PCI NJC. KDR Masterton Harmony Elite + custom granny flat Aug 2015 - Deposit paid Dec 2015 - Contracts signed Feb 2016 - Colours appointments Mar 2016 - DA submitted Jun 2016 - DA approved Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13254Feb 01, 2017 8:16 pm MartinsHarmony we are building in Cumberland Council. Yes, the skylights are crazily overpriced. But just wondering if it will be hard to get the installed post-construction. How long does it take to build a dual occupancy? Sandra2016: congratulations!! That's great news Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 13255Feb 02, 2017 8:23 am Congrats Sandra!! Can i ask roughly how long it took everyone to start build once land was registered?? Our land registered last August - almost 6 months ago and we are still at least 2 months off from starting construction, our neighbours are at least half way through their build and we are still waiting on M to get their s**t together Is this standard M?

Bloody hell what do i do now. Isn't that good? So M hurry up and fix everything? Not good at all when dealing with Masterton. Yes they will do shower screens but they wont install appliances or carpets and who has 50k cash left over after building to pay it myself. Oh well I guess i will say f.... it. Im not stressing this year. The bank and masterton can fight this one out. 4 17229 i imagine you also have another contract with an architect? and yeah, whatever other's said about special conditions and appendices 16 16663 Hi all I am looking to run a water line under my concrete footpath which is directly next to my home, was seeing if this is possible without cutting the entire section… 0 20748 |
