Hi rajat, do you mind if asking a question about the storage room under the staircase. The site manage claimed that it's Metricon's practice to leave the bottom of the…

Thanks for the detailed comments! Metricon's pre-site and construction teams have been disappointing. They did well in marketing; no wonder the guy from marketing visited Metricon quite a few times…

Thansk rajat; I have contacted Houspect about this issue.

Thanks! It is a good idea to build the case for maintenance extension. What does it mean by "lucky if you have <50% effective glue cover over the complete tile....…

Will metricon do this?

We are building Vantage 48 with Metricon, which was "imported" to Sydney area. My wife and I really like the floor plan of V48, and the sales team made it…

Building Liberty 40 with provincial facade

What a massive land! I really like the idea of mud room and big pantry. Hope the project is not affected by the pandemic.

Hebel Powerfloor insulation

I don't think additional insulation is necessary. There are gyprock boards below the hebel, and carpet or timber floors above the hebel. Certainly, you may add insulation to have even…

Building the Metricon Doulton

I won't call it that way. People have different constraints and information available when making decisions.
Our Vantage will have the Hebel powerfloor and 2.7m to both floors so that the…

KDR Vantage Mode facade modified

Thanks, Renman. We do get the Hebel power floors as I couldn't image the floor upon some particle boards.

KDR Vantage Mode facade modified

Thanks mate. Yes, I have chosen the Hebel subfloor, tiles to ceiling for all bathrooms, brick external walls, and 2.7m ceiling height for both floors, etc..., which bring the total…

KDR Vantage Mode facade modified

Thanks, Macher. Hope M will sort this out for you. Other than the subfloor, the creaking may come from joists sa well. That's why I am a little bit concerned…

Looks good, at least some progress. We are also going to build a Vantage with Metricon, currently in contract stage. Do you have Hebel powerfloor (as the subfloor)? Metricon says…

Vantage 42 (S-Series) by Metricon in Victoria

In the context of recent news about building quality issues, I fully agree that independent inspection should be a mandatory part of building process, not just for project buildings, but…
