I wasnt to bothered in the end as I guess that $5000 we will have back at the end of the build to use ```````````````````````````` WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS Did you get it in writing Block bought 1st RBC X! 2nd Ventrua,Keeper!

Latest pics up 115Apr 08, 2011 7:08 pm kerry-ann Thanks for the info. Wow the contract paperwork is a nightmare to go through Did your compaction test involve another fee or was it included in the soil report test as its mentioned in there that they will inspect it ? We are going to meet them tomorrow to go over some ???,hopefully all will be clear then cheers K.A the compaction test was included in the price of the siteworks My build: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=33640&p=476552#p476552 Prelim signed 23Dec09 Contract signed 18May10 Earthworks Building Licence 13Aug10 Earthworks Started 11Oct10 Building Licence issued 11Nov10 Slab 18Jan11 Bricking Started 16Feb11 Re: Bricking started!!!

Our price has gone up $12,000,so we are tring to go through the extra cost to see whats happening. Still have PS which we are not happy about. They have an extra cost of $500 for compaction test,need to do more reading of all the paperwork. Thanks for your help! Block bought 1st RBC X! 2nd Ventrua,Keeper!

Latest pics up 119Apr 18, 2011 3:21 pm Well question answered by sales guy,because they have to make sure the earthworks are done properly & they are providing the structural guarantee they have the compaction done Also did they give you a seperate price for your services eg power run in,telephone etc or was it included in the house price. We thought it was included as in 10m for this 6m for that,but we now have had some prices come in for them Thanks agian for your help Block bought 1st RBC X! 2nd Ventrua,Keeper!

Latest pics up 120Apr 18, 2011 9:33 pm I wouldnt believe any of those sales guys most of them just make things up to get more $$ I had a compaction certificate that was done by the earthworks company. The earthworks company even forwarded it on to the builder for me and gave me my copy. The council also wanted a copy and it was sent by the earthworks guys. How can your structural waranty be effected if you have a compaction certificate signed by an engineer that the builder will be using anyway? With the services run we had to pay a bit extra because our house is further back than the standard distance. The Earthworks dug out the trenches for that and also filled it in once the plumber and sparky where done. Im not sure when lockup will be they dont seem to tell me anything these days. Our bricks are going to be texturecoat rendered around the whole house so they wont be that colour for much longer.
