Re: Porter Davis homes 15549Oct 10, 2017 11:59 am Silestone question for anyone who may be able to shed some light on costings before I go to WOS next week. Does anyone know the rough costing for increasing from the standard 20mm thickness to the 40mm thickness? And I know waterfall edges are expensive but no idea what "expensive" means.

On the specification it says double glazed. On the construction drawings it says double glazed. Do you think they didnt check the window and any stage before they put it in against some drawing or do you think they will thought I just wouldn't notice and it done it anyway? see more at hoffmangoldwithporterdavis.wordpress.com I'd be hopeful that it wasn't deliberate, it's more likely that there are about 100 different things that get ordered and even though we think it flows through automatically from whatever system they use for presenting to us to sign to being purchased from the supplier a lot of it is probably actually manual and someone keys in the wrong thing every once in a while, potentially at both the PD end and the supplier end. Or whoever is loading up the truck doesn't pick up the right window accidentally, all sorts of reasons for things to get stuffed up without it being deliberate by PD. Then when it arrives on site the tradie just puts in the window where it is supposed to go and doesn't bother checking because they figure they're just there to install it, not check the spec.

Just one more invoice to go before we are IN! Last time I've seen the house was 3 weeks ago since I flew to Israel, now I'm back and will see the progress this Friday. Can't wait!!! I think all the tiles are in~~ Can't believe the difference from before starting the build you curse the day you decided to build your own house but now that the building started I'm just happy every day thinking about the house. To those of you not yet building, just hang in there, it gets better!
