I contacted Geotech Built for a quote, out of apparently good reviews. However the experience was…read moreso bad that I decide to take the unusal step to white this review. On Tuesday I contacted John and he said there would be $360 for the come out and ininital inspection. The invoice was not received on Wednesday so I called him on Thursday to chase up. He eventually sent the invoice at the end of the day and I paid for it. I am serious about the inspection and I am not after free lunch. I also double confirmed with him that he would come between 12 and 2pm as I have other schedule afterwards. On Friday 12:40 he texted me saying stuck with work and 1 hr away, asking if still ok. I called back and found out it was impossible for him to make it even I waited till 2:30pm. He offered to come "first thing tomorrow". I agreed. On Saturday, instead of 9am he promised, he texted at 8:50 saying 10am. Yet at 10:15 still no sign of him. I rang him and literally asked where he was. To my surprise he took a huge deal of if and blamed me to be rude. I pointed out that it was even more rude and unacceptable to be late for the appointment, twice in a row, and when the customer paid $360 for it. He then became defensive and used excuses such as family issue, "we are not machine" blah blah blah. He clearly doesn't care that the customer also has family, and has wasted time simply because he didn't show up. If a business constantly doesn't keep their time promise is bad enough to avoid dealing with, then combined with a terrible attitude is worth alerting others.

My husband and I are new to the whole renovation process. Friends of ours had used Power Flooring…read morefor their place in Freshwater on the Northern Beaches. We were advised Michael, the Project Manager, was helpful and gave them a competitive quote for the flooring and installation. We had seen the finished product at their apartment and were keen to find out more. I looked up the website and was impressed by the many positive reviews from happy customers. A woman from Mascot couldn't be happier with her floors; a man from West Ryde said the Bamboo floors he got were fantastic; and a woman from Turramurra said they went above and beyond! I emailed Michael asking if he would be available to come out and check our apartment to get a quote (I note that you can make contact through the website too). After receiving a prompt reply we settled on a time and date that suited us both. Michael made the trip out to our apartment measuring up the floors to see how much flooring we would need. We decided to make the trip to Strathfield to pick the flooring in person. To keep prices low their showroom is really just the front of their warehouse. There is so much flooring to choose from. Keep in mind the colour, style, width, timber type.. you would like. We settled on Natural Oak Laminate. A detailed quote was then emailed to us which included the flooring, installation and removal and disposal of the existing old carpet. This morning the floors were finished and we couldn't be happier. We are thrilled with the finish and how good they look and feel underfoot. Highly recommend Power Floors for all your flooring needs. No fuss just friendly and helpful service with a great product to boot.

They did a pretty shoddy job on a number of levels - weeks later we realised they had managed to spray the varnish onto paintwork on walls which we now have to repaint less than a year after doing them. We had an iphone in a drawer that magically disappeared while they were here alone (we couldn't be in the house as there was no furniture). He broke a light switch, butchered an almost new bed, and didn't want to claim on his insurance so offered a tiny amount of compensation which goes nowhere near what we have ended up out of pocket on all this. Absolutely not recommended

After handover they do not want to take responsibility to correct all the defects. They do not have any site supervisor who actively checks on all the things happening.

Cornerstone is just the sales agents For Bramwell homes and will tell you whatever you want to hear, dont believe a word they say. We signed for the fixed house and land package in August/September '21 and told with out any hesitation we would be complete and have tenants in buy end of January '22. When we asked Effie and Cameron directly, clearly and without any room for misinterpretation what happens if the site needs piering, hit rock, needs cut or file due to the lay of the land etc what happens, without any hesitation we were told and i quote "it's the builders' problem not yours, it's a fixed price house and land package" this was confirmed at least twice. They told us Bramwell build in the area, Tamworth, and know the land and would only purchase land they know they can build on without problems. Awesome sounds great, they offered to do our taxes, manage our finances, have our main house and the investment paid off in 8 years, signed contracts and never heard from Effie or Cameron again, zero follow up, zero contact whatsoever. Chasing Effie and Cameron about the build from about November as we had heard zero about start date, or council application etc, got ignored, then when finally contact another member of cornerstone got given Bramwells Client Manager, Tricia. Chased Tricia up from then on, ask simple direct questions via email, e.g. has the building application been put into council, only to be given generic run around answers. after 6 or 7 emails with the same generic response and zero actual answers, Tricia never got on the phone once or even had the balls to answer my calls leaving the reception to make excuses. then get a call from another member of Bramwell, James who is the new client relations manager, this is in late December. Still zero application filed with council, and we were promised a finish date by end Jan '22. James offered a generic apology, made excuses that we were never going to be complete by end Jan '22 and blamed Cornerstone for saying that, Remember Cornerstone is Bramwells sales agents, and they work all together in the same office so they know what each other is doing. Again still chasing 6 months later to be finally told the block is in bushfire zone, but they are are playing with the design to make it work, ok why not tell us this 8 months ago seeing you claim to know the land and the build, zero response just generic blame game. Finally get Bramwells managing director, as well as Effie and 2 others on the phone in June '22. Clearly asked what the hold up is and why we have been told nothing, to get a generic apology as per usual. Ask what the story is as we were supposed to be complete 6 months ago at this stage and yet the building application hasnt even been put to council, to be finally be given the actual answer. The block not only is in a fire zone -- rating unknown, the block now is at a bad gradient which now requires the slab being piered, the duplex design now to be split level, more surverying needs to be done etc etc, and it will take another 18 months ooh yeah and another minimum of $350k!!!!. Remember this is a block Bramwell/Cornerstone knew and sold for the house and land package, and it's fixed price dont forget. Effie from cornerstone, when ask straight out, this is a fixed priced package you sold us, how is this our problem? didnt even answer the question just blatantly ignored it and talking about something else and gave excuses ask to why she never contacted us again even after numerous emails. If a builder puts this in their building contract, do not go anywhere near them, and i quote from the last page "The owners shall not make, in any shape, form or manner, an announcement, blog, public statement or article for publication in relation to or connected with the builder or the work under this contract without the builder's prior written consent" Lucky for me Bramwell void the contract so i can post the truth. contact me if this has happened to you bramwellcase @ gmail. com

Nearing completion, the installers realised they were missing some door trimming and would return tomorrow to complete it off, however, my daughter was holding an event tomorrow and the owner had promised me to have it completed by today. I spoke to him over the phone and he was quite clear he did not have the resources to complete it. An hour later, he called me and informed me he would be coming after work to fix it personally. Around 6pm, he arrived to glue down the trim and completed the installation himself. I was delighted by the customer service he has provided and I would definitely recommend FloorVenue for any flooring installations. They provided the lowest quote and followed through with great customer service. Cheers!

These guys were competent in that they could work on-site unsupervised during the entire job, and the work was excellent. Not only were all 200 piles dead-plumb vertical, they finished inside the scheduled period of works.

Finally, they were responsive to the unforeseen challenges that arose during the project, co-developing solutions with the engineer. We have used them several times since, and they have never failed to impress. I have no hesitation in recommending LC Civil for any hand-piling, shoring and underpinning jobs.

One was a red…read moreink stain which had been made worse in my attempt to repair; and the other where it appears water had come in and rotted the carpet down to the bare fabric. Mr Budget suggested I use carpet from the inbuilt wardrobes, and went about his work. I have to confess I did not think that both areas could be repaired. The first one was the rotten carpet - quite a large section. You can not see the repair! It is quite amazing. The second one which I agreed on due to the success of the first, has made the carpet look almost new. I am absolutely delighted (and no I am not related in any way to the owner of this business). I have also written an email to the owner of the business and would be happy to talk to any prospective customers who may have the same concerns as I did going into the repairs. Recommended!
