Very bad. Once you buy land and pay, they don't care anymore.
Acting like pross when it comes to telling you what to do with the facade, and declining it for no reason. But when it comes to what they do as builders, they don't care about surroundings, they can do whatever they like. Never again would make business with them.

My build design was sent to DFC for approval in late January 2021. They were nitpicking about the smallest irrelevant things, mostly about windows.
Anyway, I just want to start building my home so I ended up agreeing to all the nitpicking and then sat waiting for approval. Two months past with no communication, I emailed and called and emailed and called again. Finally they got back to me and asked me to put a huge extra window in the ensuite by the toilet and so big that I would have to cut part of the vanity mirrors.
Again, I reached for a comprise and asked if I could make the window just
