Rusty your house looks great. About the Derby. My DH and FIL tried it out for me while I was at work and my FIL said it is really quiet unlike his new Actron while rattles a bit. Although I can't yet comment on it's heating and cooling ability. Well we got handover today . There are soooooo many keys! I think each window must have 3 sets! lol. There are still a few things that need fixing and installing but apart from that the house looks great. The alarm was installed this morning, although we haven't tried it yet as they must have forgotten to leave our instruction booklet. We also booked the alarm people to come back and install a coloured video intercom and to add the alarm to the garage remote to operate both. The paint job has been fixed and looks great. Still to come are another tv bracket as one was wrongly installed in our bedroom, the missing robe shelves and the straightening of another shelf, also a bedroom window has a small crack in it that needs replacing. We came back this arvo to find our missing door handles that our SS had come back to install through the day and a gift basket and our house name 'Colonial View'. Just lovely. The kicker was when we came back tonight to check the alarm system we also tried out the cavity sliding door between our kitchen and study. Last week a piece of gyprock was stuck. Well it was obviously still stuck as it has created a small hole in our WIR wall the size of a 50c piece. Lucky it is on the handover certificate paperwork. So we will be following that one up next week. Overall we are extremely happy with our new house and particularly want to thank our super efficicent SS for his hard work since taking over the job a couple of months ago. We also would like to mention our customer service officer as she was fantastic and always answered any questions big or small. It really did make the building process less stressful.
