Met with a landscaper today to get a quote for the backyard. Looking forward to getting the quote and locking something in so my dog can move in asap.
Gotta keep them on their toes especially when you have paid to upgrade it.
Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 241May 09, 2018 9:05 pm J278 They confirmed today that they’ll replace the tap and have carpet call install the correct underlay. It might be a coincidence but my sisters carpet underlay was wrong in her build a few years ago and they never found out until they had a leak and the carpet was pulled up to replace after they moved in. The carpet companies do the install so it would be worth going and checking to make sure you get what you pay for. We wouldn’t have known but we walked past the skip bin and saw the off cuts of overlay in it. Met with a landscaper today to get a quote for the backyard.

Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 242May 09, 2018 9:18 pm Good to hear they are sorting everything for you. I might have to get my brother to go past and make sure they are installing the correct underlay for mine! Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 246May 10, 2018 9:53 pm I think it is a thing haha I was worried that my Dalmatian will be lonely so we decided to get a pup while we are on leave for 3 weeks in June Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 247May 10, 2018 11:54 pm Very cute bundle of trouble, you might want to postpone the rear landscaping for 3 months and just DYI some grass due to unwanted digging and pruning 🤣🤣🤣 Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 249May 14, 2018 7:30 pm I hope they don't delay your PCI especially being so close now. Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 250May 15, 2018 10:42 am Choosy I hope they don't delay your PCI especially being so close now. Me too! We’ve booked the day off but haven’t received a confirmation whether the date is changed or not. It’s pretty much done they should let us walk through it and do the tap and garage door afterwards if they need to. Then we can do the second pci.

I agree its too late to postpone now especially with items that can easily be rectified during the pre handover period.

Manual roller door is in and they’ve changed the taps over. They have also levelled the front and back yard. Landscaping quote for the back yard came in at $6600 and that includes the dig out, retic, soil prep, sir walter grass and paving. Also put down our window covering deposit with ABC Blinds. Going with their quote on vertisheers, plantation shutters and aluminium blinds. They will come and measure once we’ve got keys and install them as each set is ready. Also picked our paint colours today. Going with Dulux Winter Terrace and Dulux Olive Leaf throughout. Quite the productive day. Now if only I could have a PCI date please Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 253May 15, 2018 9:03 pm Great that everything looks good for PCI Friday, how frustrating that they have not responded to your email and confirmed. Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 254May 15, 2018 9:12 pm Looks fabulous. Fingers crossed PCI will still be friday! Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 256May 16, 2018 9:35 pm J278 My CL told me today that QCI is booked for Monday 21st and she will let me know by COB Tuesday when we will have our PCI. The wait is hard I think that the closer it is to getting done the harder it is getting. I am feeling a bit over it at the moment. What is QCI?

It’s the Quality Control Inspection that the ss does prior to PCI. He’s supposed to fix all of his findings prior to PCI. Re: Hilbert HGWA Build 258May 16, 2018 10:34 pm Can't believe they took so long to get back to you, roll onTuesday. Hilbert HGWA Build 259May 21, 2018 7:24 pm PCI is booked for 8am Thursday I can’t believe we’re almost at the end. Thank god. Haha. Had to stop by this afternoon to keep my excitement going and I’m so happy with how it’s turned out. House is a bit of a stickery mess but looks like mostly weak mortar on the exterior. What a difference a clean of the tiles make too.
