Hi there has anyone built with Golden Homes in Christchurch and have noise issues with the steel framing? It’s been over 3 years and we are still battling to get the terrible popping/banging noises sorted out in the roof cavity that can be heard all throughout our home 🙁

Hi Andrew – I did build a steel framed home with Golden Homes but I don’t have any noise issues so can’t help you there. However just wanted to say good luck with GH because I ended up suing them for another matter – in my opinion they are total asshats and the general manager is (again in my personal opinion) a nasty piece of work who is not interested in compromising or managing conflicts in any helpful way, shape or form, just wants a fight every single time. I’m guessing you will probably end up having to go down the legal route too. 🙁

Hi Sarah, I’m curious which Golden Home franchise you’re dealing with? We’re using golden homes but are still early in the process and already have some concerns. Hoping it’s not the same area.

We are planning to build with Golden Homes (S. Akl) and would be keen to know more about your early concerns and anything we should look out for.
