Hi Lisa, Well unless you mean you excluded all comments other than specifically on the ChCh franchise you’ve missed quite a few. (The locations in the blog show up as yellow lines on the scroll bar) At least 2 from the end of 2019, both negative. Of course I realise that the performance of different franchises in different areas may not all be the same, and that with different management a franchise may have improved since the last comments. But I did have some pre-build dealings with a SW franchise a few years ago, and found at that time that their contract (which I understood applied to branches) was not just bad from a client’s point of view, but so poorly written that they didn’t seem to even understand it themselves. And they were totally unwilling to even discuss changing it. So as the saying goes ‘caveat emptor’. To quote the wise words of Mark G above: If you’re are looking to build or renovate, do yourself a favour and get some understanding of what you’re about to undertake. Building a house is a very expensive and highly complex project – way more than you think if you’ve never done it before. There are great builders and suppliers out there, but there are rip-off merchants, too. Go to the Building Guide and Design Guide websites and get some insights into what you’re about to do. Getting it right will make your life fantastic, but getting it wrong could destroy you financially, so prepare!
