Bear in mind, before signed the contract, more specific and more details about the conditions should be defined or added into your contract. Otherwise things can be done in anyways: do you understand what I mean?

You're right. We didn't specify "clear finish" for staircases and windows, end up with Simonds just sanding the staircases and windows: we have . When we asked why they did do coating? We were told that's the clear finish! They will find "HOLE" from your contract to save money. We didn't have experience. Now I hope everyone to learn from our experience.

You need to ask at least three coating when finish the staircases and windows, otherwise, don't sign the contract. You can paint yourself, bu need to sand them again.

If you have any questions, please ask here. I'll try my best to answer you based on my experience in past year!

If you didn't have previous experience, it's hard to know when or what conditions to be added into your contract.

To avoid future suffering, a lot of things are really important for you to get your builder to add them into your contract. Now I am an experienced person as my house just been completed. I have spent a lot of time to chase people to commissioning my compliance and fix the problems. I just realized if I added these things into my contract: the builder should complete a lot of things before the settlement, and how much time and money I would save?

If you have any questions before signing your contract, talk to me here.
