After signing the contract mid January, followed by excuses, additional charges (resulting from their mistakes) and contractor issues we are finally in the going into the pre-plaster phase. Today the PB came out to make sure we were ready to request the pre plaster inspection, then walked me through the final steps of construction. When we got to the plaster he said "Is there anything I can do to talk you out of using quartz and going with quartz fusion instead? You wont be happy with the quartz, it's well worth the cost to up grade to quartz fusion" etc.. This is after the salesman told me I'd be happier with the quartz and the cost to upgrade to the fusion wasn't worth it. I should have done my research ahead of time but didn't. They offered to do the fusion at a drastically reduced price but I don't know if this just another unnecessary upgrade they are trying to sell me. Prior to this we have had escalate to district management in order to have them remove a total of over $10,000 in charges. Charges that management admitted would not have been necessary had they done their job correctly. I'm so beyond done with this whole process.
That said, I have a few questions for those building or that have recently built in North Texas.
1. Approximately how long from contract to swimming did your construction take?
2. did you encounter any additional charges during the build?
3. Any problems with contractors not showing up, then rescheduling?
For the Pros:
Is it worth the upgrade from quartz to quartz fusion(micro pebble)?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.
