Richard is our site supervisor. The finish date as per the contract is 7 June, but the kitchen company they were using went into liquidation last month. They have revised our contract to 26th June.

( wasting 6months to wait for constrcution) That's the reason why my kitchen is still imcomplete now, but they didn't tell me about it. The whole building experience with firstyle is very mixed.

Have you escalated with them already? We have escalated a few times, our build progress was bad between brick stage and pre-lining/lining stage (stage 3 and stage 4). We kept escalating and the project is almost on track except the kitchen stuff. Our understanding was Firstyle had onboarded a couple of new kitchen companies and were working with them to deliver projects on time. I am not sure if your build was affected with the kitchen company liquidation or not, best is to check with them. Let me know if you need any other details. Re: Anyone building with Firstyle Homes?

Hey , were you ready with you preliminary plans, contract with tile selections etc before the land registration ? If you were ready with all of these shouldn't take more than 3-4 months before starting construction? I am asking cause I am trying to get into a contract them.

Quick question regarding the internal colour appointment - did you choose your tiles during the appointment? Also, which company provides the tiles? We were wanting to have a look at the options available before our appointment. Thanking you in advance for your reply! 😊 Hi Kaiser85, We are building with Firstyle Homes.
