Theres also a big chip in the front of the door (just above the bottom window pane) that i knew about and was expecting them to "rectify" somehow prior to staining, however this has not happened. I'll be speaking to my SS about this tommorrow as if it cannot be fixed i'll be asking for a new door - at $700.00 a pop it should be perfect i've also noticed that one of the downpipes has started leaking around the base, so will be asking about this aswell i'm really tired 2014 - Prepping to build the Soho 4 with Plantation homes, industrial style 2009 - Built the Brampton with Coral Homes viewtopic.php?f=31&t=15399&start=280 Re: building my coral brampton - HANDOVER NOW 04/12/09!!!! 1126Nov 30, 2009 1:45 pm Change of plans everyone - handover is now going to be this Friday 04/12/09 at 2pm!!!

Re: building my coral brampton - HANDOVER NOW 04/12/09!!!! 1128Nov 30, 2009 1:59 pm SS said the painter should have filled the chip before he started staining - we'll see how it looks mid week and if it's not good enough I'll have another whinge 2014 - Prepping to build the Soho 4 with Plantation homes, industrial style 2009 - Built the Brampton with Coral Homes viewtopic.php?f=31&t=15399&start=280 Re: building my coral brampton - HANDOVER NOW 04/12/09!!!! 1129Nov 30, 2009 2:49 pm Hooray Jess!

Hope the door gets sorted out to your satisfaction. It can be exhausting finding things like that at this stage. You just want to get in and don't want anything to hold you up. I'm sure they'll look after you. Re: building my coral brampton - HANDOVER NOW 04/12/09!!!! 1131Nov 30, 2009 6:17 pm Wow - that came up quick! One thing i have learnt - don't be afraid to complain - you will be looking at that chip EVERYTIME you go to open your door anyways - winging is good for them (tradies) - mine seem to take every chance to gasbag about their dramas so I guess I (and you) can too progress viewtopic.php?f=31&t=20401 sculptures viewtopic.php?f=36&t=26607 pole trouble viewtopic.php?f=3&t=25988 Re: building my coral brampton - HANDOVER NOW 04/12/09!!!! 1133Nov 30, 2009 7:51 pm That is so exciting - how is your packing going?
