SS yep havent met him yet, CSC yep writes that we have "weekly construction calls" ahhhhh yes last time we spoke was about 3 months ago All in all from I have been more than a little disappointed - from having to chase up a tile appointment 9 months after the colour appointment and 3 months after contract signing.

Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12345 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74717 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
