He's been very straight forward which has been refreshing. I'm glad to hear that the standard included selections are good, that's the number one thing I've been panicking about thanks to our previous experience. The only thing we've noticed is a few of the items (such as stone) seem to be quite expensive compared to other builders, though from what we understand a lot of that is to do with the supplier relationship. Do either of you have any photos that you took inside the selection centre? I know they're opening their new one soon but it'd be nice to have a little nosey. - Kayla Kenny & Kayla - Adelaide Follow our build on Instagram First build 2013 - Finished and sold Second build 2018 - Underway Re: Building again in Adelaide - Send help! 38Jul 07, 2017 9:38 am kaykens We are currently dealing with Cahill in Gawler and he's been fantastic, very accommodating.

They didn't have much range at all as they were renovating. But she had brochures for everything so even though we couldn't visually see it, the brochure gave us a good idea. Re: Building again in Adelaide - Send help! 39Jul 07, 2017 9:48 am I've got a fellow of my selections photos on my thread though I didn't take any of the overall area. I'll do a bit of a google for you!
Cahill is fantastic, he was our sales person and was extremely patient (my OH is a very slow decision maker). Also, we found certain elements in their upgrades were priced very differently than other builders - ie: cost for our pivot door or extra tiles or extra doorways etc was strange compared to others. (We've got a massive double shower with shower seat and ceiling mounted rainwater head for under 2k, where I've seen comparisons of double that.) Also if you're thinking solar at all - their quote (and their sole supplier is lovely) came in 3-4k under others we spoke to for a better system, and their air-con came in drastically cheaper for the size we want too. Cahill was fantastic and when we got to gallery selections, the woman there knew already exactly what things we liked from what we'd talked to him about previously!

We asked about the space in the ensuite with the shower and we were told we couldn't do that as that wall is where the toilet roll holder has to go. Otherwise we would've made the ensuite bigger. I would have asked if that small section of wall could be done as a nib wall sticking out for toilet roll but with shower behind it still thus making that wall in the home theater area flat. or just use it for shelving for Movies etc with a curtain or similar over it to hide it - and maybe one on the wall on the opposite side to balance it Hi, Apologies - I know there is plenty out there on this but struggling to put together the puzzle. We're planning our garage/external laundry to master bedroom and… 0 11493 Really tight at the top of the stairs- how to get furniture into those rooms? Study books - does anyone really use them these days? Large storage closet would be more functional. 2 7011 Ask the council if there is a chance of getting build over easement exemption. Sometimes easements are unused and 24cm is not all that much. Good luck. And yes any builder… 2 14519 |
