Completion
The finishing touches are put in place to complete your home. From the cabinetry, bathroom products, tap wear, tiling, flooring, appliances, driveway and landscaping, we ensure your home is ready for you to move in.
We then organise a time for you to walk through your home for a final inspection. Any issues are resolved and within two weeks your home is ready for handover.

Eighteen month maintenance period
It takes a while for a home to fully settle into a new site. Our eighteen month extended maintenance period ensures that you’re covered and receive our full support if any issues arise.
After the first three months of living in your new home, you have the opportunity to submit a list of defects to our maintenance team. We then organise a suitable time to inspect and repair any defects without delay.
We will visit you at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 18 months to make sure you are as happy as the day you moved in.
