We are looking at building the grange 60sqm. Does anyone have any recent feedback with the grange and/or Masterton in general for the last year? I get the impression that Masterton is quite slow and I should budget for a 2 year timeframe from tender to actual handover? Also, does anyone have a rough idea of how much percentage more I should budget for on top of the ultimate package? Thank you Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 14577Jun 28, 2020 8:06 pm gibson Thanks for sharing your story. Question...which other builders did you consider and what was it about Masterton that made you decide that was the one to go with? Was it the layout, style, customer service, inclusions etc? Just trying to get a feel for the builders as we start out journey in looking for a builder for a KDR. These stories have been great so thanks again Re: Masterton Homes - The next thread 4.0 14580Dec 29, 2022 12:45 pm Hi Everyone, Just wanted your opinion on the situation. I've built with Masterton, recently I had a flood downstairs, because the shower drain got a bit clogged and the water filled up about 15mm. It did not go outside of shower cabin. As the water was going through the drain some of it went under the tiles travelled to the bathtub drain area and went downstairs. Apparently there is a gap between the shower drain pipe and the drain hole, which is according to Masterton "by design", and this allows the water to travel between the floor tiles and the waterproofing. There supposed to be a little barrier around the hole in the floor where the bathtub drain pipe goes through. Apparently it is either not sealed or the water goes above it. Masterton called a waterproofer, who inspected the bathroom and said he will tell Masterton how to fix it. Masterton came back to me later saying this is not their problem, as "the water filled above the angle which allows the water to go where ever. There is not water proofing problem. Need to keep floor waste free of body hair". I asked for a copy water proofer's report, so I have something in writing. Never got it. I refuse to believe that hair in the drain should be causing floods downstairs as long as the water does not leave the tiled floor of the bathroom. What do you think?
