Both sides of us are PD homes, so its the one supervisor across all three which I like.

We are currently at wk 26 in our build & building a 42 sq dbl storey! How long for those of you that have built should I expect my house to be finished?

Instead, we have a frame, and are about to raise yet another complaint with PD due to serious build errors. So far we've had a countless number of CSCs, we've been told we are PD's most "difficult" customer ever, and we're totally unsatisfied by the experience. After finding all of the errors in the plans, some of which were significant and greatly held up obtaining a planning permit (we ended up paying several $,000s to a consultant to draw a correctly scaled and contoured Autocad of the block due to "drafting" errors) we've discovered today that the builder did not use the plans we signed off, but instead, they used an old version that had variations we had never requested. How could that possibly happen? We'll sort it out, but it should never come to that. The errors and inconsistencies, poor version control of plans and variations, failure to follow up and so on are really getting my goat. I'm sure PD will be just as glad to see the back of us as we will be of them. Do you have to go through planning? Go Kangas that all sounds terrible! I really hope that you're able to sort it out to have a house you love. When you ask if we have to go through planning, do you mean Council planning? Quote: @JLD: we are dealing with Lifestyle in Williams Landing just because the house we are thinking of is not in the Leopold display range. We did deal with their guys via email during the week but it was a huge going up to WL. If you care to share, where is your land and what house are you thinking of? Pip. Fair enough Pip, we are building the Cayman (Prestige) which isn't on display at Leopold either but the sales guy there can deal with all of the range and can meet us at WL to go through the house when we need to. We're building down on the Bellarine, where are you building?
