I would check your Schedule of Particulars at item no. 9 (Time to commence/Complete Works). Mine states 220 working days (mon-fri), so I would guess everyone building with FL…

I've even received phone calls from the owner of FL (in Dec) who wanted to apologize personally and told me he would ensure PC by end of January.... But guess…

Just wondering if anyone here building with Freelife has a clause for Liquidated damages in their contract (daily amount payable to client for exceeding construction time) ?
Thanks

I have just discovered that if you google this builders name and click underneath the address where it says '1 google review' it's quite interesting to read. I think I…

When does the 220 days start? Is it from when the slab goes down or before that - when all the shire approvals etc are given?

I read that in the contract as well, but I'm fairly sure it said 220 working days. So I'm wondering if that means only Mon - Fri are counted…

I am sooo over the whole thing! They are totally useless. Nothing to report really except that they installed the blinds... But guess what? Wrong colour!! It's been 49…

PC November 1st..... Yeah right!! That never happened and not a word from anyone to let us know. Sooo frustrating!!!

Oh that's exciting!!! But still having problems?

Have you moved in yet AGJC08?

OMG.... Knock me down with a feather. Just got an email saying PC is scheduled for Nov 1st. Will let you know if that actually happens!
I too hope…

Non productive really... Met with a ''relief" Rep because mine wasn't available. He made a list of our concerns and took them back to the office.... So you can guess…

Still chasing updates on PC and still given no info.... What a surprise!!

Not quite sure my trip to Perth really solved anything. The building Rep was over half an hour late and then I found out he was only covering for…

I sooo feel your frustration! It is totally ridiculous... Not to mention incredibly rude and unprofessional they way this lot behave. I NEVER get any of my phone calls…

That's great - hopefully they have learnt a few lessons so far and your build will be much smoother.

Thanks, that would be great

Hi Casellmai
It would be very interesting to read that Building Commission clause you mentioned in a earlier post (saying a builder can increase their price) Any idea if it…

Yeah your right - I really should send them the bill for my flight!
OMG - is there really 60 items they need to finish (fix) ? And they said…

So glad to hear you won that battle - they must think everyone is stupid and will just accept what they say.
I am so over these clowns!! - I live…

It's really not fair what they are doing to you - you are really caught between a rock and a hard place.
If u can get the original price…

Sounds to me like its 'tough bickies' for them if they can't get their costs right.... It's like buying something off the shelf at a supermarket then getting to the…

I just re-read my Prelim Contract... And you are absolutely right. It clearly states (at section 5 iii) that the prices in the contract are fixed for 180 days.…

That's great AGJC01 - sounds like there could be light at the end of the tunnel
Our roller door went on last week but with only…

That is sooo frustrating for you! Is that the garden out the front or the back?
When I spoke to the builders today about the back landscaping (because they hadn't…

Hi AGJC08 - I just got word (by calling them myself ...lol) that practical completion has been rescheduled for the 20th Sept.
Thats only 9 days away so I…

My pre start was mid march too

Yep.... Put in the "too hard" basket!!!
