I built with Allworth last year. Admin was fine, long and annoying but it’s the same with all builders.
We had one major problem during our build, they missed our additional…

I just noticed the link to my thread wasn’t in my last message, making it rather useless. Here it is.

Yep the ending part happened super fast. It was such an anticlimax too since we got it all done and then left it to the agent to find tenants (not…

Fencing done and dusted!

Vinyl flooring going in this week. It’s not as dark as in the photo, even the walls look a different colour so must be my phone, and covered in dust…

We just had our kitchen finished this weekend and I am in love with it.
Polar White Silk cabinetry
African jet black granite tops and waterfall
We hand picked the exact…

My builder charges $1000 which includes the sink upgrade and stone polishing
I ended up doing my own stone and sink post handover because it was ridiculously overpriced. I think our…

My benchtops are caesarstone brand and I have a crack in each bench top. We paid about $400 to have one fixed and it just stopped it from growing and…

We didn’t bother removing the baton light in the kitchen because when the aircon goes in next weekend I will just get them to put the vent there, that way…

Had handover on Wednesday 10am and I was there till 5:30 raking 300sqm to get all the rocks and building waste out of the yard, then put…

Hubby went down for PCI on Wednesday and everything went well, there was half a dozen very minor things like adjust shower door, clean a few bricks etc...

We had to upgrade the…

Your house is looking great, I really love how it’s all come together, especially your tiles.
I remember we started around the same time and I was upset with all of…

Wow! and not in a good way.
I’d be disgusted with that.
I am sorry I can’t help as my brickwork was perfect, but we aren’t rendering.
I hope someone pops along soon…

After doing this post we also realised they missed the drainage from the butler's pantry too.
To fix the one in the alfresco they had to bring a pipe up next…

We are having an on-site meeting…

SS called hubby yesterday to advise the house will be done by the end of month. The bathrooms are done and painters are due to start next week. They’re just…

We are doing our own vinyl planks after handover. We’ll have the stone done first so it can be laid on the hard surface.

You can do them with a shadow-line joint instead. You’d need the ends to have a 20mm overhang
I just had temporary bench tops with my build and am getting…
