Well not a lot happening on this building site We had a meeting with the construction manager and SS three weeks ago to try to sort out some issues being the back wall is not correct the stacker doors have an overhang from the face brick of 40/50 mm's Jason doors have said they should be 20mm maximum overhang, the doors somehow bow upwards in the middle of the stackers so when the cornice is on it looks bowed. It also shows that the stackers have been put in crooked. The brick work over the laundry door inside is not square it leans backwards so they have to pack the cornice so it sits square. The bricklayers on our bottom floor were nothing short of terrible, our SS told us that he is not using them anymore unfortunately that does not help us. In that 3 weeks not one thing has been addressed we were told that we would have keys well within 6 weeks, that leaves 3 to go I doubt whether that is going to happen. It is extremely frustrating that we see our home sitting there with no one giving her any love. There is so many things need fixing , our splashback still has not been installed, i'm fairly certain that was forgotten as the electricians did ask me about 5 weeks ago when am I going to have the backsplash installed WHAT!!! we were told your installing it after handover. I needed to get rid of some frustration and would I recommend Switch homes NOT ON YOUR LIFE!! Re: Switch Homes. 318May 02, 2016 10:54 pm Oh Petad.... I'm so sorry.

I hope everything comes good for you in the end. Fingers crossed. Any electricians here please help. 1) Will the Fan need separate switch to ON/OFF/Speed eventhough it comes with Remote 2) how about… 0 1210 Ask for references and speak to them.
