Making sure you actually get the trade certificates as and when the work is done is probably more important than this special condition.

Well have a more detailed look at the obligations being passed onto you then. Sometimes it's not just about your house, but what's happening around your house that's being undertaken…

No point wasting your time. Vendor won't agree. Your solicitor probably hasn't seen enough of these.
Focus on other things like building timeframe / constraints would be time better spent.

Thanks for the insight. Pretty surprised that anyone would do this to a regular customer. They are probably in a comfort zone with you for too long.
Good of…

Would you mind elaborating why the last one is no longer a fit for the business? PM if you prefer. Much appreciated.
Interior design + full furnishing with furniture…

Interested in getting either the Polytec Boston Oak or Palace Peak for kitchen cabinets.
Looking at the Boston Oak ones, it appears that the colour varies significantly between different projects:

In fairness nobody gave a crap about the ACCC and the gag clauses continued in the pro forma templates of a few other builders after the ACCC took on Wisdom,…

Yeah, identifiable only for those who already know the logo, lol

I thought this is a logo/sticker of some sort?

Slightly off the usual topics...but this truck carrying a brick elevator was involved in a hit and run this morning at around 9.20AM at the cross section of Pennant Hills…

The ACCC has had a few go's on the volume builders on the standard form HIA contracts under the UCT regime and have not found many of the special conditions…

the stair balustrades? There is nothing special about these and I imagine literally every stair installer will be able to do this.

Perhaps have a look at your contract first and see what the construction period and the liquidated damages for delay are, and take it from there.

I wouldn't play the ACCC cards.
Everyone knows how the building contracts are one-sided favouring the builder but the ACCC has had virtually no bones to pick from those standard…

Wasn't Elderton Homes gone late 2022, and since Millbrook was just a high end spin off, this is hardly a surprise.

gross floor area has the same meaning as it has in the Standard Instrument. However, in Part 3, 3B, 3C or 3D it means the sum of the floor area…

Any builder that starts with 45% interest rate and $5 per day LD should be an immediate write-off in my books.
But I guess you found that out way…

These sliding doors are fairly common in Japan but are not always featured in Australian homes.
The first one is sliding glass door and instead of sliding behind another glass frame,…

Are you getting the horizontal line in the stair wall patched up and painted? For me it kind of destroys the cleanliness of the 4 vertical LED strips.

Looks good. What construction method / extra waterproofing, if any, was applied for the parapet walls?

I wouldn't do either if I were you:
1. Are you intending to do a survey before you put in the new fence? If not, your land survey for the…

What's the 10k for? seems quite high.

Narrow lot and zero boundary, it's very likely that your house, perhaps other than the master suite, won't get much sunlight during the day, if at all.

Thank you. Yes, might ditch the bricks for hebel for the first floor for the final design, if it brings cost savings.
