Thanks! I'll see if it's possible to re-stain them when I get sick of this present one

Hi D, is it inspection today? Let us know how it went!

Hi E,

Yup just finished our PCI. Was pretty breezy, nothing really majorly wrong.
Biggest ticket item was un-even concrete slab along the rebated stacker doors. My tiler told me about this or I wouldn't have even picked it up, so I raised it with my SM. SM is gonna have a floor grinder come to even it all up =D

Apart from that, just all minor paint touch ups, silicone here and there nothing worth noting.

10 Business days from today he'll have everything fixed, then hand over SM reckons.
Who says building a house is hard... lol

Woohoo congrats! Sounds like a walk in the park

Have you decided when you're moving in?

Dulie

Can you bring ur SM and builders down to Melb to build my house please?

The quality of the build depends on the involvement of the SM. I'm grateful we have a good SM who is always on top of things, and quite regular with his updates too. From the visits i have had so far, i am hoping to have a To-Do list similar to Dulie. Fingers crossed.

Congrats Dulie. You wont need to do much more snooping around once you get the keys. Like me, you'd suddenly miss that part of it. LOL!

The day after!!!! lol

Yeah a good SM is worth is weight in gold! I swear the misses and I didn't really pick up anything during PCI, while the SM actually picked up all the imperfections. We just walked along chatting about random stuff lol.

And yup no problems, i'll put him in express post to your address in 10 business days.

Yeah definitely, I couldn't be happier with the effort our SM has put into getting our place just right. Like I said earlier, the SM has picked and fixed 10 times the amount of things that we weren't happy with.

Feels like the guys up here in QLD really take pride in their work and do a great job. Very lucky to have experience such an enjoyable experience during this build. Will definitely miss using my ninja skillz to access the house lol.

Congrats Dulie

Glad to hear it all went well! You have certainly created a beautiful house.

Funny you mentioned about the slab not being even. Ours isn't either and the tiles in some areas are above the stacker and below in others and the SS said it was within tolerances so nothing is being done!

Thanks JM.
Yeah I'm so glad I invited my tiler over to scope out the house, he said it's a very common problem that most don't pick up till it's too late. Cause you don't see it till after the tiles are laid. Unlucky that your SM refuses to do anything about it. I've read up on tolerances and it's 10mm's which is crazy!!!

Plus I feel as if I would have gotten a similar response from the SM if we didn't pick it up before the tiles were laid.

That's great Dulie, make sure you still keep posting after PCI Would love to see the other work you are doing to the house including landscaping and stuff.

I'll take him after you're done because that's probably when I'll end up starting my build

Yep I haven't even demolished so you're waaay ahead.

Just got emailed the list of outstanding items picked up from PCI.
Seems pretty straight forward.
