I have never felt so emotionally drained in my life! Like some of you guys have mentioned, my other half has had to step up in the last few weeks with regards to dealing with Wisdom and getting quotes for other things. Only the other day I think he finally realised how over it all I was and apologised for not doing more sooner! I'm sure once our tiling is complete and we can move, all of it will wash away. Such a shame that one person can really dull the sparkle on it all! I'm certainly not pumped about seeing him tomorrow! Building Wisdom Homes Serenity 31 Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4757Mar 22, 2017 12:14 pm Oh no I'm so sorry to hear kirst10!!! I'm glad you are getting the keys tomorrow and just take a few deep breaths and enjoy the fact the stress will be gone soon. Last time I built i had a horrible run, my partner (of 5 years) and I split 6 weeks before handover due to the stress of it all and I took it over myself. I hated the house for it, but eventually loved it and all the new memories that were made it in. (And bawled excessively the day I moved it when I sold it!!) Don't let someone else ruin such an exciting time for you guys. It'll feel like a drop in the ocean in a few months. I promise!!!!! Can't wait to see some pics- good luck with tiling and moving xxxx Building Majestic 40 - wisdom homes[/quote] Oh wow mrsllamas, that's would have been terrible. Hubby and I have never bickered as much as we have been lately. Living with mum doesn't help! I'm sure you're right and it will be completely irrelevant in a few weeks time! Will keep you guys all posted xxx Building Wisdom Homes Serenity 31 Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 4758Mar 22, 2017 12:44 pm Kirst10 Hi guys, ive been off here for a few weeks - and what an emotional few weeks we've had. We had PCI on the 9th. There was only minor things to do - some more paint touch ups, one room didnt have the carpet done and some bricks needed a better clean. We got a call from SS on the Friday after to tell us that after waiting nealy 4mths to get our garage door installed, someone has damaged it. I could have died. I told hubby he needs to deal with SS now as im going to have nervous breakdown! SS told hubby to call last week to see where things were at as he wasnt able to set handover. Wednesday came around and we got told that Di Lorenzo have run out of our carpet and wont be in stock till end of month and we cant handover till then! I was devo'd. One room without carpet and they cant handover. I said that i didnt mind moving in without that room done as it's one of our spares, but no (apparently he'd called the boss and that was the answer). Friday came round and he was not answering our calls and msgs. He finally called me back and raised his voice at me through the phone. I was hysterical. Called hubby who called HO who gave him the bosses number. Boss said he knows nothing about our house and certainly doesn't see a reason why we couldn't move in without one room carpeted! He said leave it with him and he'll make some calls. Within 2 hours, they were getting the carpet from another supplier and we have handover Thursday 23rd - tomorrow. SS was trying to call me but I wasn't answering after the way he had spoken to me. Finally answered and . I'll admit i was quite short with him. But we are finally handing over tomorrow. Phew. What a week. Im glad it's over to be honest. I'll be sure to post some pics tomorrow once we have the keys in our hot little hands lol. I hate to say it, but im not even excited. The last week has really taken the shine off it all and I just want it to be done. We have our tiler booked in to start on Friday as we have that to do and he'll probably take over a week so we'll be moving on the 8th/9th. Right before I have the family over for Easter!!! Sorry for the Novel - just new you guys would be able to understand. I know our issue pale in comparison to some of you guys. Just keep your chin up and it will all be over eventually! I'm so sorry to hear you had so much heartache so close to the end. I'm sure the excitement will return when you get in there and it's finally yours.

Hi Kirst10, Sorry to hear that the last little bit turned sour for you.
