When can I discuss anything to do with my dream home with my Builder?

We are available by phone during normal business hours (Monday – Friday 8.30 am to 5.30 pm), or by mobile if there is an emergency after these hours. We ask that you respect our private time which we prefer to devote to our personal and family matters.

When do I arrange my own house and contents insurance?

You should arrange applicable cover for your house and contents from the day you take occupancy of your new dream home.

Who arranges connection of Electricity, Gas and Telephone?

Generally, it is the owner’s responsibility to arrange these items. Keep in touch with your builder to find out the correct time to arrange these connections.

Can I keep any leftover building materials? What is the procedure?

Sometimes you may be able to keep excess materials (eg. bricks) but you must not do so unless you have written permission from the builder.

When can my builder give me an approximate completion date of my dream home?

The completion of your new home is dependent upon Council requirements, weather, availability of materials, variations to the contract, etc. We can, however, give an approximate date of completion once we reach the fix out stage.
