Re: Sezza's Perth Build 347Feb 22, 2011 3:51 pm I heard that the sealer is pretty potent - DH is going to get some special masks from his work and we will do the job in stages and isolate the areas until the smell is gone... what choice do we have?

The problem in my house was that the painters closed all the windows after they put the sealer.

Re: Sezza's Perth Build 349Feb 22, 2011 8:26 pm partner was thinking of paying a painter to do the sealer. but wonder how fussy they would be with the initial prep work???? def need to air the house out when paiting.. let all the fumes out!!!! not bad idea.. getting some sort of mask to stop breathing all those fumes!!! or even one of those space man suits!!!!! you always seem to get covered in paint even tho you try to be soo careful!!!!

Bunnings sells it in those bottles like for pest control so you just pump it up and it sprays.

"dear house build diary!!!" today we had a walk through of the house. I guess you could call it the PCI before PCI!!! not alot to worry about that we noticed.... only things that we picked up were: 1 of the linean doors on the inside wasnt painted. on the driveway and at the path near the front door our darker boarder pavers, 1 of them is chipped and another has a defect in it. like a marble effect with limestone!!! there was a hole in one of the bedroom walls, but ths has already been patched up ceilings where they were cracked have also been fixed up. hmmmmmmm. thats all i can really think of at the moment. lights work, taps work, loos flush, garage door works. what else should i look out for?!?!?!?!

That is quite 'generous' of your builder to have a pre-PCI inspection! Makes sense though. Take a look here for some good PCI checklists: http://www.anewhouse.com.au/?page_id=235 Built with Sw1tch H0mes >Build thread< House status 15/12: Gates and A/C finally installed!
