Nice of Clarendon yo let us know!!! I hope we get an email from the new one introducing herself (or himself). Otherwise how do we know who to contact? Doesn't surprise me to be honest...we only found out our SS left because of gossip through a personal friendship... Probably have her phone forwarded to the new person... Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 17209May 16, 2017 3:00 pm We chose pgh breaking dawn last time and pgh eclipse this time. Both lovely! I'm in Qld and only have Pgh to choose from. Lots more options in NSW Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 17210May 16, 2017 6:56 pm Did anyone go with the standard stair case and put floor boards on them after handover? If so did you have to change the nose type of the stairs (i think they call it SN-2 where flush step is flush with underside) Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 17211May 16, 2017 8:44 pm jellytot Has anyone selected the standard bricks from either Austral or PGH? If so, what did you choose. Pretty outdated selection to choose from! We didn't have the option of either company, just Austral...ours was Whitsunday Orpheus as standard. Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 17212May 16, 2017 9:57 pm My contract states that Practical completion is within 260 days after commencement and late penalty is $100 a day. Is it reasonable anyone? I'm building a low set home Kiet 25 in QLD.

Pretty outdated selection to choose from! PGH. We went with the Palazzao Sorbetto as that's the only grey-colored bricks that is free (the rest are premium bricks & Australa had a close one which costs $4k to upgrade). Whitsunday Orpheus was a standard brick until recently when they moved that to premium! Was our favourite too.

Is it reasonable anyone? I'm building a low set home Kiet 25 in QLD. Hi tngo! $100 a day is waaayyyy better than what we have which is a measly $15/day! Our build is 4 months over our building contract too. I heard that the builds are super quick in Qld so they are probably confident your build won't go beyond the 260 days Re: Who's building with Clarendon?? 17215May 17, 2017 8:20 am bk84 tngo My contract states that Practical completion is within 260 days after commencement and late penalty is $100 a day.

Our site was cut last November and we only up to the lower roof tile stage. snail pace. Good luck with your walk through!

[/quote] Bk84, what was the 3 months hold up? the stair balustrades? There is nothing special about these and I imagine literally every stair installer will be able to do this. 1 6746 The two 15mm holes are obviously not compliant.
