Yep, exactly our experience. The smart wastes are also a concern as they (Tile Direct) kept insisting they were stainless steel coz we didn't want chrome plated but Clarendon told…

Hi TVN03,
Not sure I can share as we only have a few small samples ourselves so there isn't really much to go by at this stage.
Experience wise with…

Hey Paul, could just be delays due to the number of people buying. I heard there was increased demand a few months back so they had to delay some things…

Good to hear the tender appointment went well! It's a long gap until you're contract appointment. Any idea why?
Yeah, finally we're almost there. Clarendon have fixed all the Colour selections…

You select from scratch but there are base colours included in the price and upgrade colours that are extra.
In the colour studio, they have the colour palettes for all…

still in the process of reviewing the final colour selections sheet. Clarendon just keep making errors in it even after we point out the errors and what needs to be…

Hi,
We're building a Sheridan 36 at Box Hill. Just finalising colours now so hopefully construction is not too far away.
We picked the 36 because we liked the layout of…

Kitchens do take long because they wait for paperwork from Clarendon containing finalised colour selections before finalising their plan. We're still waiting for our final kitchen plans.
Some of the…

We're not far behind you wingzee. Just waiting on Clarendon to update the final consolidated colour selections then should move to construction I'm guessing. I'm hoping things don't get more…

There are problems all along the way! I'm not at construction stage yet but even going from Sales to Tender, nothing was passed over and we had to re-explain all…

Not at construction stage yet but it's the lack of attention to detail with completing paperwork after colour selections are done.

Hey Mrs RS, what kind of frame mistakes did they do?

Received colour selections documents today to finalise all that before moving to the next step.
There are errors but I'm honestly surprised by some of them. One example is our…

Hi Paul,
Bit of advice for your tender appointment but don't take what they tell you with a grain of salt. We asked a lot of questions and we're given…

I disagree with the above post that says you don't have a choice in floor plan. We're building via a h&l and we're able to swap the default house the…

Hey Paul,
Our inclusions are mostly the same. We didn't have the tender extension or cornices called out. Beyond that, all the same.
We just received a pcv last week to…

Hi Paul,
Can I ask what you're doing with Bed 5 in the Sheridan? Did you leave it as a normal room or put cavity sliding doors similar to the display…

Finally heard back yesterday! Apparently they've got a large backlog to get through now. Regardless, we've been waiting since Feb. With only one person assigned to do all Highgrove properties,…

If the land isn't registered yet, is it part of a larger new estate? If so, they'll need to arrange estate building works (building roads, installing street lights, etc) and…

We're building with Clarendon too and no you can't get your deposit back.

Up near the park, lucky you! We're back on Crux St. Was there many blocks left up there to choose from? Are the blocks level up there? Down our way,…

we're actually in Stage 1 of Highgrove too. We may be neighbors!!
Going through the color selections wasn't too bad but I was pretty surprised around how poor the attention to…

Hey Paul,
Which estate will you be in at Box Hill? A lot of work going on out there.
Hope all goes smoothly with your pre-construction journey. We've had a little…

Hey All,
New to the forum so hello world! 😁
We're in the process of building a Sheridan 36 (48 after upgrades) and are going through colour selections now. Thankfully, they're…
