Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Yarrabank Homes 37Aug 06, 2019 12:24 pm Hi everyone. I am so sorry for what you are going through. We are local builders within the Casey, Cardinia and Baw Baw shires. We are in talks with a few people who are currently building with Yarrabank and looking for a local builder to take over and complete the construction of their home. Please contact me with any queries with respect to the completion of your home or building you a custom home from the conception stage. We would be happy to help in any way we can. Please don't worry too much. A builder can take over your build and complete it for you - your build is insured and it will be completed. I wish you all the very best. Please contact me if I can help in any way. Kind regards, Rebecca, Elite Building Services.

Although yes they were actually quite pleasant to deal with and listened to our issues, we had a few minor things needing rectified post handover and when attempting to contact my rep, building supervisor - anyone I got nothing. Finally got through to Mark the owner and he advised me that the company is going into LIQUIDATION and that nothing will get fixed. I feel for anyone half way through theor build with them. We're worried sick that there will be major issues arise with no assistance from Yarrabank. In saying this, we still have nothing formal re liquidation, it was a verbal notice over the phone but it was from the owner Mark Pierce or Mark Goulding or whatever his name is. Thanks Chad, we were just in the planning stage of a custom design so had invested a lot of time in discussion. Our house plans won’t change as the design is our own but we will need to have them drawn up again with someone else. Whilst you will have problems with warranty at least you have had handover. People who haven’t have an enormously difficult road ahead. Good luck. Hi Bullatagate - have you got your builder sorted now? Re: Yarrabank Homes 39Aug 06, 2019 12:59 pm DUCKY Hope all went well with your build with Yarrabank. We were considering their Waratah 34 (beautiful display in Botanic Ridge) however we heard just this morning that they have closed their doors. Hi Ducky, have you found another builder yet?
