Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 16527Mar 15, 2023 10:29 am Call it what you want, but siloing in domestic housing industry is a result of home owners being down at the bottom of the information/data ladder. LOL, Keep in the dark and fed Bull$!t) here How is this design in terms of liveability Blame the Builders salesman for the way the industry is and clients not paying for professional advice, upfront Heads up your in for a huge $ticker $hock when you raise your ffls/Footings/Slab,etc ... Pity you weren't forewarned and then got 3 builders to quote on the engineering before you signed and handed over a deposit.

I am currently in a 'discussion' with Wisdom re our drive through garage. The back roller door is narrower then the front to the point where I couldn't drive my car through. Granted it was narrower on the plan, but come on! We have only had 19 rows of bricks done, so it's not going to be a costly fix, but so far I have been told NO CHANGES by my site supervisor.

I had issues with the heights which I rectified but I missed the width. On the plan it was very cluttered. Having said that, wtf would you have a different sized door on the front and back? Makes no sense to me Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 16533Mar 16, 2023 1:10 pm diepiggy Yeah, I know. I had issues with the heights which I rectified but I missed the width. On the plan it was very cluttered. Having said that, wtf would you have a different sized door on the front and back? Makes no sense to me because they arent the same door. No doubt you have a sectional panel lift at the front and roller at the back. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 16535Mar 16, 2023 2:49 pm diepiggy So a door which you can't drive through would be standard when someone asks for a 'drive through garage'? The rear space where these doors would fit are typically narrower due to the design of the homes. Most of the homes aren't designed off the plan to have enough space for a drive through garage. Not only that, not all cars are equally wide. You might be able to fit a Barina through but not a standard Commodore or It might fit a Commodore, but you may own an F150. So when you say I want a drive through garage, there's a bit more to ascertain. Seems both you and the builder missed doing the due diligence to make sure that "drive through" meant the same thing ro both of you. Many people get the rear garage door not necesairly to drive a car through, but enable access for small equipment, like dingos and bobcats etc for landscaping etc. So if you said "drive through" to me, my first question would be "what are you driving through?" which would hav had you looking at measurements.
