Metricon – 18-Week Build Guarantee
Terms and Conditions
Following the signing of your new home contract, Metricon will confirm to you in writing if the guaranteed construction timeframe applies to your home based on the final requirements for your home and whether your home meets the conditions set out below. If you do not receive such notification, your home is not eligible for the guarantee and the usual contractual obligations regarding timeframes for home completion apply.

An 18-week build time guarantee is offered by Metricon on single storey homes under 30 sqr’s in Victoria that meet the following conditions.
Conditions

This build time guarantee is also subject to any extension of time clause and suspension of work clause in the New Home Contract. These timeframes will automatically be extended by 5 weeks, should the applicable construction period occur during the industry shutdown period commencing on or about 22nd December of each year.
