Our journey with Metricon began back in 2015 and I couldn't be happier to see the back of this company. At least until something breaks down and I need to contact them lol The last few years have been very stressful for us and I've felt like I've had a part time job on top of my day job just keeping up this build. For anyone considering building with Metricon in Sydney my advice is this. YOU will have to be on top of everything. Their staff are hopeless. From the beginning to the end I've dealt with incompetence. All their experienced staff have been poached away from Metricon and they are left with newbies who ( with the exception of a select few - Paul P and Rebekah ) have absolutely zero care factor and zero attention to detail. I am in the process of preparing a scathing review for Product Review online. The compensation I was offered from Andrew M NSW building manager (who coincidentally left Metricon yesterday) was an insulting $700 for all the heartache and stress we encountered throughout our build. This was very upsetting and I was extremely offended by this as I am well aware that Metricon offer compensation other than liquidated damages where appropriate so I am determined to share my story online via my blog and Product Review which I will do in the next week. We told Metricon we don't want their measly $700 and to come back with a better offer by Monday. So let's see how that goes... On the flip side after my big rant the house looks beautiful. Again I stress so many things in the house had to be redone / reinstalled / readjusted/ repaired multiple times. I will also add that Metricon does not get credit for making the house beautiful, it is the selections and upgrades we paid for that made our house beautiful. If I didn't fight and push for things to be done properly during the build the house would have had poor workmanship throughout. The amount of material wastage on our site was insane! As soon as the wet weather clears and our furniture is delivered I will post some photos. And of course here is the obligatory handover photo....

You have finally reached the end of your journey with M! Secondly, I couldn't agree more. Everything you said is exactly what we are continuing to go through! We will be doing the same in terms of reviews after we finish too. With regards to your compensation you should definitely push hard. $700 is ridiculous when you think they'd happily charge $1500 for any post contract variation! Plus the actual cost of whatever it is you are asking for. Why shouldn't it be the same for them? This is the stance we have taken and will continue to take. Would love to hear you get on. Can't wait to see the pictures of all YOUR hard work!
