I take it you've never heard of a 'variance' document? I think you'd find it pretty hard to show me a builder that doesn't allow any variances in thier contracts. Also, you said you might sound like you supported the builder. From what you've said so far you actually sound like a builder yourself (or at least were at some time) .

Matt, I think you should fight for it. How about stopping payment or something?? Our builder AllCastle seems to be a bit more flexible about this. So far we only asked for a few minor changes which doesn't have any impact to $, such as: raise a window higher, move shower taps to other side of the wall, ...etc. But to cover their back, they want us to put all these in writing, which is fair enough. We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 37150 Carlisle use to sneak a water resistant "Performance Solution" into their contracts. Have you checked your contract for same? 4 10246 Hi there! Putting the feelers out there for those who have (or almost) built with Arli homes!
