Well, I'm glad you managed to negotiate around it. We knew the expiry date (we made them name the date instead of the fuzzy '150 days from signing' they offer),…

We were never told anything about a tender extension, and were never given one. Just hit with a $9K price rise when it came to the contract as the fixed…

Friends at work built with another company, their SS gave them the lock combination for the front gate so they could walk through any time they wanted. I'm assuming Kurmond…

Will you pay a professional to do an inspection at handover?

HI all, we are chugging along with our build. Up to the framework now. Kurmond were quick to issue us with the slab invoice, got it out while the cement…

My update - our building platform was leveled off and the peiring has been completed. There is piles of stuff on the block, presumably the the mesh and waffle pods…

Good advice nada17.
Mallik, hope you can benefit from our experience and use this info constructively. As nada17 said, keep saying to them you don’t want their delays forcing a…

Mallik, I hear your frustration, we signed the preliminary tender in May 2017 and construction has only just started. Don’t expect them to begin this year, but push hard for…

That's funny. I was just looking at the Kurmond product reviews (easily found via a google search) and saw that the opening paragraphs for 'Jake' and 'Timbo's reviews are identical,…

Yep, I agree nada17 and the dream. Kurmond slow delivery begins in the back room, long before construction commences. It’s now been a year since we signed our preliminary tender,…

Great to hear someone is seeing progress. We were told a month ago they were going to organise our insurance docs (we have not yet seen them), and at some…

We will need to reapply for finance, I think, it’s been such a long wait since we got pre-approval, and we still don’t have the final costing.
They told us they…

Someone must being putting a cracker under them, we had a two month gap between our external colour appointment and the having the DA documents sent for our approval.
We…

Hi Nada, it’s vegiegirl, I put in for a new avatar ages ago, and it came through much later! So colours done (took about 6 months to get through all…

No progress for us, still waiting on a contract.
Nada17 - glad you got your colours finished, finally!
Malik - wow, if they have you ready for DA submission in the next…

That’s no good Nada17. So unprofessional to not respond to you to at least give you an update on what is happening, and whether there are delays.
We recieved our CC…

Nada17, it has been over 9 months since we signed the 90-day fixed price tender. So it expired over 200 days ago. Laughable, really. We did everything we could to…

Nada17 that is shocking and yet so typical! 😣

Hi Nada17, yes I looked at the DA docs, but we wanted to make sure we weren’t missing anything, then have Kurmond tell us it was our fault we didnt…

Nada17 - Glad you’ve got your CC, nice to feel like you’re moving forward.
Malik - glad you’re feeling optimistic! Good luck, and I hope you progress faster than we…

We are another unhappy Kurmond client. We went with Kurmond as they provided a floor plan that met our requirements with very little modification.
We first sat down with them in…

nada17, we asked about upgrading our wall insulation and were informed R2.0 was the highest R-value supplied by Bradford for wall insulation. Bradford's website appears to support this. Your quote…
