Carlisle Homes Questions & Answers

Hi,

I would just like to ask if you build on a sloping block?
Ours has a fall of 2.0m.

How much need deposit for house and package?

Hi
we bought our house which was 8 months old built by Carlisle homes. After 1 year, cracks start to emerge. Carlisle homes fixed few cracks initially. After few months, new cracks start to merge and today its nearly after 1.5 years those cracks are getting bigger and worse. They give 7 year structural warranty so the inspector took 1 year to take level samples on every corner of the house and asked me to do concrete around the house ( which is ended up doing it ) and gave me list of things to be done outside the house to stop the movement. It looks like the inspector does not want to do fix the cracks and is making issues on the landscaping and other things and refuse to fix the cracks until the issues are not fixed by me. I have already spend $11,000 fixing the issues that they ask me. But still not he refuse to do the job.

Is it true that the owner has to wait outside while the 3 three months inspection after moving in is done. Why I ask is the easing of Covid Restrictions is now allowed not tightens. This is just a one to one inspection with masks on...

Hi,

I made product review for Carlisle Homes on the 4th of November. As a reward, you will be given a $100 E-gift Card. I never received this and reported it to my sale support many times. She said I should have received this the same week it was posted but only got an email notification 2 days later that Carlisle Management replied to my review. I have checked junk mails and deleted mails. How do I get this?

hi
we did virtual color selection during covid lockdown and when restrictions lift we went to showroom and did few changes in color selection. My consultant said that she will raised post variation contract document in which she can include the changes. I am worried that if that's right before signing contract. And is there any additional cost for that??

Hello, we are building a double story house and the electrical consultant didn’t allow us to put light point (purpose for feature light in the future) saying Carlisle doesn’t do it. Why can’t you put can you please explain it in detail? And we put 2 down light on the corner of the eaves in first floor but later on they removed it. Please explain it why please.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
We were browsing through Carlisle website and loved Dorchester 39 plan, but no display home available anywhere . Can you suggest a display home similar to Dorchester 39 or can we expect any new display for Dorchester soon?

Carlisle homes provide foam for complete first floor on exterior walls of T range homes but cant provide bricks veneer even at place with no articulation joint and even though preferred by a customer who are willing to pay extra money. On enquiry they say foam is good lighter than brick and better insulation. I agreed 100%. But If foam is such a good product compare to brick veneer then why it is not used in affinity homes in first floor exterior walls completely like it is used in T range. Henley provides foam at places where there is an articulation joint otherwise they use same material as used in ground floor as per the building standards.

Hi, we are considering Carlisle but are a little confused about the style systems. Can we buy a house that is in the ‘Easy living’ and upgrade elements to ‘Affinity’, for example? Clarity would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I have got a qoute for Sorrento grand retreat. The quote includes a "fixed site cost" of $20,000. Will this site cost cover evrything after soil test and engineering drawing is done, or additional cost will be added due to variations in soil classification and engineering drawing.
Waiting for your answer at the earliest convenience.

Thank you

Hi There, we are currently at contracts stage. Do you allow clients to leave multiple reviews throughout their engagement with Carlisle (i.e. sales, selection, build)? or is it just a single review per client?

Can the entry to the Theatre room in Canterbury Grand 47 be widened to 3.0 or 3.5 meters like similar to what is in Kensington house design for its Rumpus?

Just wondering what is the difference between canterbury 44 and canterbury grand 43?

Thanks

Can Carlisle do soil test for other owners titled land when there is even NO contract or NO payment made to land?

And that's totally wrong and proves that to grab 2000$, they are making use of it. The land itself doesnt belongs to me, they can even check the records , NO contract also signed and even the pictures CLE sent shows the land is still on sale with the real estate agent. I have informed to SC during paperwork also that the Lot is not yet settled and it will change as well. Even he confirmed that soil test will normally happen 2 weeks before colour appointment and so he told us that Lot changes are to be informed before 2 weeks of color appointment. Even I had followed that and informed well in advance on Aug 6th itself.

The paperwork itself not done on 17th July but Carlisle sent soil report showing 17th July. Who gave you rights to do survey and soil test for other owners land. I should report it to authorities immediately if I dont get my deposit.

There is not even a single contract signed so far between the land and myself. So there is no way , its not acceptable to do soil test for other owner's land and holding my 2000 deposit.

Hi Carlisle,

Thinking of building Cottesloe 34 with the Esprit (Hebel) facade, however when i checked the facade details at https://carlislehomes.com.au/home-designs/facades/#ranges:TRange/storeys:2/ and viewed the details of Esprit Hebel one of the features list item is "Single entry door" even though Cottesloe 34 can have double doors.

So my question is, is this facade restricted to single door only (independent of the house design), or is it whatever the house design allows?

Regards,
C

I need to know if I have a block small land for 300 m2, Can I build 2 small unit or townhouse side by side or there are other factors thanks

I'm interested in a compact, 4 bedroom house with an 8 star rating. Thermal efficiency is very important - warm in winter, cool in summer, with minimal energy required - just good design. Can Carlisle make any of its smaller single storey 4 bedroom designs to an 8 Star rating? How much extra would it cost?

Do you know what tiles are included in Category 5 at carlisle homes?

Can we organise finances threw your company
