I would second this. It would be worth checking if Wisdom are meant to insulate around the garage door as we had about a 1 inch gap and given we…

I installed Ring v1 which has a battery life of 6 months prior to charging and seems to be holding up ok. It is expensive and v2 was twice the…

It sure is. As with any industry there is often an assumption that the customer understands the terminology and process, but you will need to do your research, listen to…

We had some that were done and some that were overlooked (over fridge and buttlers). Just escalated to SS who got them done afterwards but did delay things a little…

Contract may have changed, but ours was in schedule 1, item 6 - "building period" - one of the first pages of the contract

We went with 2740 downstairs and 2590 upstairs (and square set cornice) which i'm very happy with. I think people have gone higher but this was the max we could…

Looks like Wisdom have been going through the end to end process making improvements, so it sounds like maintenance is now where the bottleneck is. Hopefully they get on top…

Yes, it is part of the package so you would think it would be pretty standard for the kitchen company to build the right size cavity. I think they inverted…

Our rear balcony (Ambassador 36) was $18,500 and we have adjustable louvre screens to 2 sides which were $7,200. The third side is brick.
These prices were from 2 years ago…

Fingers crossed. We aren't relying on a bank so I think it will be down to getting the interim occupancy - did the PCI today and was very happy with…

As I understand it the payment schedule is based on “practical completion” and from my experience it means “close enough”. If there are major quality issues with the work that…

My robes are 440 in depth and there is about 480 usable space.

That seems to be the trade off. We got the driveway and side path included as we wanted this done before moving in but are likely paying a premium for…

Take a look at Kvav27 latest photos. They look like the standard mirror if you didn’t specify otherwise. If you have a double vanity you will have 2 of these.

If you like the tiles I would go with the 40x40 (otherwise it is your chance to choose another). We have 30x60 in all our bathrooms and they look good…
