Hi my name is Lee, my husband and I are in our 70 and 80, we are thinking of building a Blueprinthomes.com.au and we would like to know if anyone has had a bad experience with them, ie very long delays and extended build time or price blow outs.?

Hi, we are currently in the market to build a new home like half of Perth and we will have our land secured hopefully by tomorrow. Just wanted to hear from people who have built with Blueprint and if you were happy with the workmanship and quality of the fit out of your home? Has your house stood the test of time? We have never built before so we don't really know what to look for in a great builder vs a not so great builder. I should mention we had a 3 hour meeting with Lee from Blueprint yesterday and he was great with giving us a full scope of extra costs, what is included standard etc. great first impression. Thanks in advance

You will be in good hands. We moved into our new home the end of October and we are very happy with everything. This is the fourth time I’ve built in Perth. The house before this on was with a high end builder. Blue Print build a well constructed home and their customer service is excellent. We had a dream build. They keep you informed every step of the way. The quality of a lot of their standard fittings are really good. You will be tempted to overspend as there are so many nice things you will want to put in your home. Keep a close eye on your budget. There are lots of things to do after the house is complete that you will need money for. Letterbox,washing line and house painting rear garden and maybe security doors. They give you a form to fill out for any faults to be corrected. I really struggled to find anything to put on that form. I recommend you go with Blue Print. You really can’t go wrong with Blue Print.

Thanks for your feed back Terry. Seeing as you've built four times you would know what to look for in a good build vs an average build. I plan on speaking to Redink and seeing how they compare because they seem to be similar in pricing, Thanks again!

Hi all, I built with BluePrint Homes 3 years ago. Just recently my garage door cables gave way and the garage door slammed shut. Luckily no one was nearby. One of the cable ends had split. Do any of you know if there is warranty on garage doors? I can't seem to see it documented anywhere on my BluePrint Homes documents? Thanks.

Krish
Krish  

Hi John I Think you will find the Century contact details on Garage Door, i remember that it will have 10 years warranty but there is a clause we should have annual maintenance check with the Century Doors , please be in touch with them for more details. either reach Blueprint maintenance team.

Blueprint Homes
Blueprint Homes   DM   

Hi John, We write to confirm there is a builder’s warranty with Centurion Garage Doors for 15 months from the date of handover. From that time forward our clients can contact Centurion directly for any queries/issues with the door on 9302 7500. Centurion does recommend that the springs and cables be re-tensioned every 12-18 months, as well as the door to annually have a full service (as per the Home Owners Garage Door Manual). Kind regards, Blueprint Homes.

Our Blueprint Home build was completed in 2010 and now has issues with cracking to ensuite bulkhead and wall above door in laundry. I can't find anything definitive in the paperwork in my Blueprint Home documents stating the warranty period. Contacted Blueprint office who say warranty was only for 6 years - which seems short for such a high cost item. On this forum 2 years ago I see that another Blueprint Home buyer 'Trish' had an issue with their 10 year old property, and Blueprint sorted it for them. I am hoping that this might be the case for us as well. Is this a possibility? Thanks

Blueprint Homes

Hi John, Thank you for your enquiry. As long as your block is in the Perth metro area, we will be happy to show you what we can build on it. In terms of the cost, our designs start from less than $150k and go up to as much as you want to spend, but typically most of our clients would spend $180-200k on a really nice home, finished to a very high standard.

Does anyone know the warranty for structural defects from builds back in 2011? The homes not looking so good now with serious cracks forming along the bulkhead in several rooms. I can see internal brickwork it’s that bad.

Can you please advice how many years of structural warranty blueprint provided those who signed the contract before 2016. I guess it was 25 years structural warranty. I am looking for proof. After building completion this year 2016 april, they are saying 7 years warranty only provide. But i do remember Home group WA provide only 7 years. Redink transferable 25 years. suddenly blueprint changed the warranty terms. Would like to investigate and put forward the case to HIA and relevant authority .

Your sales ref already talked to your management. Answer was negative. I am happy to discuss directly with upper management and hope i dont have to go further to legal steps . your job reference no: 14451b

We understand that any defects usually noticeable with 12 months period ( settlement period) , but 25 years warranty give us peace of mind , that's why we declined other builder who was giving us 7 years warranty offer during contract signing stage.

Moreover our third party inspection report ( jims building inspection) shows minor indication of long hair line cracks on slab (At this stage not a major issue, but easily noticeable ). that's another reason i need to get 25 years structural compliance warranty certs.

When we browsed during builder selection- Celebration homes, Redink, Blueprint were giving 25 years warranty whereas Home Group WA was 7 years (min warranty requirements from HIA) . Why Blueprint drop there quality assurance standards from 25 years to 7 years recently.

When i signed the contract, it was 25 years and thats what i expect to get to be covered.

BE AWARE

Blueprint provide 7 yrs structural warranty only recently whereas other few builder provide 25 yrs structural warranty , which will give peace of mind

I have recently built with Blueprint homes . I do remember sales rep told me that they are giving 25 years structural warranty . after completion they now telling me that i have to show them the proof. they seems now giving me 7 years only. I am considering this as serious mismatch, if management not agree further , i have no further option other than challenge via court and will request to do formal investigate including request court to reimburse full compensation for my personal loss for my time and money spend from blueprint.

Hi! I'm currently into the 10 days to fix the defects from pre-hand over inspection. Just wondering what my options are because they are already not confirming and dates for the next inspection or handover and I doubt they will have fixed them after 10 days. I have informed them I will not make final payment till the defects are fixed but what sort of penalties do they go into for not completing them in the ten days and can I charge them for every re-inspection it takes till it is done? Can I withhold final payment and do handover to move in then they fix the remaining defects?

Thank you in advance. The building contract is a joke, only mentions things the owner can be penalized for.

Windy
Windy  

Hi Jos! In truth, I am not in a position to answer your question. My experience of building is somewhat limited - just the one house. I think if I was in your position I'd actually put a review down on this website of your experience so far and mention that there are things outstanding. This might make them more 'sensitive' to getting things fixed up for you if they know any progress is going to be documented in the public eye. My experience with Blueprint was that they were keen to resolve issues. Good luck with it. Windy

Hi all, has anyone built with Blueprint recently? There aren't many reviews on here for them and of those that there are, many are old.

Two questions...

1. Is it possible to put a clause in the contract to delay price increases if land titles are late? I know the building industry has slowed so surely they would be willing if it means guaranteed business?

2. How long did it take from signing the contract until the slab went down?

rene
rene  

Hi Bec, we signed our initial contract in September 2013, but our land title was only settled in June 2014. Whatever the price that was signed in September 2013 was locked and not changed. Our Prestart Meeting was end of August 2014. Construction of slab commenced end of October 2014. We got our keys in June 2015. Hope that's answer your query.

Bec
Bec  

thank you!

One other question. They've told us we're getting a "management discount" from the salesperson and designer. Have you heard of this? Is it a genuine discount?
