Nice I like those bricks

Yep short of tradies i think and the fact last week it rained everyday. But it's just frustrating. Our frames have been up for 2 weeks now.
There are now…

I'm so happy for you chris they look awesome. What bricks did you get? Hope I haven't already asked you that.
We got a call today,despite having bricks and sand…

How come blogs are now invite only ??

I don't know it was always a fixed price even at quote confirmation when we paid the deposit.

We have H1 class which I'm not worried about the extra piering but the sewer connection which was a fixed cost.

We were told 80 would be plenty and we didn't have the option to fix I don't think.

They had allowed 80 lm and we ended up with 98.8. So they have charged us $65 per extra lm as well as extra for the concrete.

They are **. It just didn't make sense. Thank Ann I will call them tomorrow. I can't believe they would try it when you are already spending so much plus…

We received a letter from allworth today advising the additional cost of our piering.
They also advised we were getting a credit back on storm water drainage connection. Yay

Awesome news chris! It's good having someone else building the same home as us at the same time.

I've been too busy.

I sure hope so Cameron.

No progress. Just windows in and bricks delivered. It rained down here everyday last week

Awesome news Nat.

K after selecting the bricks you wanted and paying for them I wouldn't want to just bag n paint over the problem either. As a customer why should you have…

It would have been too wet for tradies today.

We got ours through accent blinds and we got a pretty good deal.
Definitely get quotes because that's his we got our deal and got them to come down in…

I love the look of plantation shutters - so streamline. We have ordered ours already subject to final measure.

I know I was shocked too.

We have had bricks delivered in today!

I was there on Saturday and I don't believe they had.
