Initial deposit paid to MJH. We are exploring Casacde & Balinese Resort façade but struggling to make decision. So can anyone share some pics of either of these facades? Thanks in Advance.

Hi, we are building the Miami 31 which is the QLD equivalent. Only just starting the process but will be great to follow on with anyone else building the Miami 😊 We chose the Cascade D facade and increased the height of the portico from 200mm-400 :-D Modified Miami 31- Brighton Homes https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=91265&f=31&p=1789112#p1789112 Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 14330Apr 06, 2018 10:11 am What is the standard variance for door heights from the sub floor/ concrete, ours varies 28 - 40 mm, with carpet we will have a 22mm gap under the door and with flooring a whopping 32mm under our bedroom door, all the doors have different heights which is doing our flooring guys head in. As per usual macjones dont care and say hey its a prehung door? No there are building standards guys but interested to know what everyone else has under the door. Also clean up before handover , is it acceptable to dig a hole or holes and bury the crap like long blue metal beams , and do macjones have to take away the driveway rubble they put down for access , cause we are being told its our problem , thats a good ton or more of rubble to take to a tip ? Thoughts please Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 14331Apr 06, 2018 11:42 am We were left with a lot of rubbish to move not just excess building scrap but a lot of empty food packets, gloves and things the tradies had just threw down. Although with the problems with the house that was the least of our problems. But it does cost to have it removed. Re: McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread 14332Apr 07, 2018 6:44 pm For those who were past their tender expiration and were not able to start building yet, how much did you need to pay extra for an extension? We bought an unregistered land and are already past our price lock. Any suggestions on how to negotiate with MJH on this circumstance?
