Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 261Oct 02, 2009 1:57 pm Wow guys! Your house looks AWESOME! The colours are so warm and inviting! Have I already asked which company you used for the blinds? I think we should probably start getting some quotes soon! How long did yours take to get made? Fantastic that you could get them installed today. No newspaper and old sheets for you! Building a Wisdom Homes Impression 33 MkII http://lilypadintheponds.blogspot.com/ We have the keys!

Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 263Oct 02, 2009 10:48 pm Wow, your carpet looks nice! Love the colour... Can I ask why the driveway is half stencilled and half not? MKTodd Well I took a stack of photos for you all, there on the blog. Turned up this morning and had to call SS who had forgotten so didn't have walk through, will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday next week. Meant to be finishing air con today and painters back for touch ups on Tuesday.. he said MAYBE hand over next Friday depending when final invoice comes through.. But we got our blinds in which was good! Waiting for 2010 Land registration.... Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 264Oct 02, 2009 11:19 pm aya99 Wow, your carpet looks nice! Love the colour...

Your house looks AWESOME! The colours are so warm and inviting! Have I already asked which company you used for the blinds? I think we should probably start getting some quotes soon! How long did yours take to get made? Fantastic that you could get them installed today. No newspaper and old sheets for you! We went through Wynstan for the blinds, found them the cheapest. Gosh from memory think it was only 3-4 weeks to get made. Yeah glad they were put up early, didn't really want to be moving in with sheets when every surrounding ppty currently has a group of tradies working on it! Hoping to get a call today to confirm the walk through tomorrow- fingers crossed. Got our invoice through at 4pm Friday so ran it up to the bank, hoping they don't take too long. There was a guy working on the weekend just putting silicone around the place and fixing a few odds and ends. We've been through the house and have our list of repairs & touchups ready for tomorrow! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the Aspiration 35MKII with Wisdom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://pondsaspiration.blogspot.com/ Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 268Oct 06, 2009 9:08 am It's disappointing to say that we've been let down again by Wisdom. I feel like having a massive rant but know it won't get us anywhere.. Walk through not till next week, keys heaven knows.. few weeks maybe?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the Aspiration 35MKII with Wisdom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://pondsaspiration.blogspot.com/ Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 269Oct 06, 2009 9:20 am Sorry to hear that guys...it is surprising as you would think now that everything is practically done they should be able to get you in pronto....obviously not though. Stay positive...you will be in soon. Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 270Oct 08, 2009 1:17 pm Well not too much has been happening this week.. Monday the painters were back and they fixed up parts they forgotten and touched up some areas (unfortunately can't get in to see).. Seemed like nothing happened there on Wednesday. Still havent been rung by SS to confirm a time and date for walk through... think were getting a lesson in patience! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the Aspiration 35MKII with Wisdom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://pondsaspiration.blogspot.com/ Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 271Oct 08, 2009 1:18 pm Am so happy to say that we have our walk through tomorrow morning!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the Aspiration 35MKII with Wisdom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://pondsaspiration.blogspot.com/ Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 273Oct 08, 2009 1:52 pm CONGRATULATIONS Told you it would be soon and I love how your last two posts were only seperated by 1 minute Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 274Oct 08, 2009 2:28 pm Sanderling37 CONGRATULATIONS Told you it would be soon and I love how your last two posts were only seperated by 1 minute Not too sure how they happened as one was posted this morning! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Building the Aspiration 35MKII with Wisdom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://pondsaspiration.blogspot.com/ Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 275Oct 08, 2009 2:36 pm MKTodd Sanderling37 CONGRATULATIONS Told you it would be soon and I love how your last two posts were only seperated by 1 minute Not too sure how they happened as one was posted this morning! weird oh well the main thing is you are having your walkthrough tomorrow Re: Wisdom Aspiration 35 @ The Ponds 277Oct 09, 2009 7:00 am congratz, MKTodd!! hmm... does that make the walk-through today????
