You can see my entire story on "the adventure begins" but woke up this morning with yet another problem. Water pouring through my daughters ceiling. Turns out after tilers were…

Rawson Homes - The adventure ends.
Thank goodness. Never again and certainly not with Rawson. I have spent the first 4 weeks of my LSL waiting at home every day for…

Just a note now that we have been in for a couple of weeks. Under NO circumstances should you allow any paint to be sprayed. I dont care how good…

We decided to pay the builders mark up (20%) for them to do the vinyl planks so as to make sure it was done right. As for the skirting, they…

Just wondering, did they even get to do a final clean? As that's what our place looks like now and the painters are still painting

Us too.
But its not about being picky, we should not have to be picky. I'm not sure where the problem is in general, but as far as I can see…

I think you will find that, a combination of spraying and rolling will produce very good results, IF DONE RIGHT. I have spoken with a pro painter and he says…

Painting
All good now
Tripple Stacker Doors
All good now

W is the best! and I believe the brickies who kept going AWOL are not getting anymore work from Rawson so you shouldn't have that holdup.
We haven't been game enough…

Na not interested. The driver of the blue Pulsar was a girl. The other car was an old twin cab. I could not get a photo of his number plate…

Yes that was me. Don't mess with the Bigted cops won't do anything so I thought I would. So many people yelled out support while…

Not sure. Looks like we will find out tomorrow as they should be finished. Cornice was delivered though.

Went back out to site at lunch today and the Gyprockers said the sheets are fine. The cornices got dumped as they held the water. But as we are having…

Mr here. I am not sure how the Gyprock/Rawson deal works. It would appear that Boral do the entire job as S/S said…

Yes Jen that brickie is a class act. Like my wife said, if he layed as many bricks as he did swear and complain about everything, they would be bricking…

This build is fast becoming one big joke.
Over three weeks now and still not even half the bricks have been layed. Only one day was there more than 2 brickies…

Jen, "done in a week, give or take". These guys are so so so so so so so so so so slow. Only ever two blokes, the boss and his…

Getting real mad now. The brickies finished at Jens yesterday and still nothing at our site, and not a cloud in the sky. MDJ & Met-con houses are flying up…

Mr Bigted is back, WOW I thought the pre build was slow. We have seen our two neighbours dwellings go up in a flash while ours sits waiting for bricks…

In the middle of moving my parents out of their home of 35 years. Not sure how much of a hurry I am for build to start now as I…

Rawson use Accent Carpets (I think it's the Homebush one?), but you should be able to get an idea from any of the stores even though they are independently owned.

Really only added another double PowerPoint to each room & a few more lights to kitchen & outside, but if you add anything you need to add additional circuits -…

Electrical appointment today & another $2.5k to add to the bill! Just the tiles to go now & then we'll know whether we can afford fences, turf, window coverings, furniture...

Sully,
It is possible to get through colour selections without spending too much. Rawson's standard inclusions are excellent especially if you managed to get the Supplier's Bonus. Even when we did…

Private Certifier in our area.

Sullivan, we are building in Cameron Park so maybe neighbours?
You only need to specify structural changes at tender stage - leave the aesthetics til colours so the experts can help…

I expect settlement will be in about 3 weeks - haven't heard from our solicitor yet to confirm. Council will assess our DA and then sit on it until we…

Quick Friday update. DA is in and being assessed. Land registered on Tuesday - guess we'll have to pay for it now.
As long as something is happening I'm happy!
