Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Rawson Homes The Edge Build problems 3Jun 14, 2019 3:02 pm Yep so true. If it was a 10th of the cost and a car there is such a thing as a lemon law and we would have gotten a full refund! Unfortunately we built more of a swimming pool than a home it seems. Combination of faulty windows, faulty flashings, installation issues with the windows and cladding, faulty bricks, faulty mortar, faulty brickwork. Too much to summarise. Lots of issues over a long period of time. So yeah pretty significant problems. What was really dissapointing was the bigger and longer the problem went on the more we got push back. I was told to "calm down" at one point and that jumping up and down was not going to fix it. I have that in a text! So condascending. I might add this was after our house had been pulled apart for 3 months. When I say pulled apart, gyprock taken off on the whole eastern wall, office carpet, cabinets, everything stripped. We paid all that money to live like that. And that was more than once that was done. To say it has been horrendous is an understatement. I don't know why but I actually thought given that they might actually be co-operative with us given the extent of the problems. But no. The warm and fluffy you get in the sales office doesnt go beyond when you sign the contract. From then on it is push and shove right to the bitter, bitter end. And the more people that contact me the more I'm seeing that. I know there is always "that" build. Well ours was that one. Just wish they would man up, take responsibility and own the fact that they havent fixed it and they can't fix it.
