Porter Davis homes

Thanks Cat, I have my fingers crossed that your settlement goes smoothly.

Welcome monkeypantz ! Your blog looks amazing already- we have similar taste in regards to laminate selections I look forward to following your build!

The most annoying things we missed were things you wouldn't expect to need to look for ... check the tiles in the bathroom for overspray by running your hands over them .. we didn't see ours. Check under the shower door that it's been done properly .. ours was a mess of grout and silicone and had to be fixed after we moved in, check that the silicone has been done in a tidy fashion - ours was a mess and had to be redone. The left hand side of the family room window isn't straight so there is a gap between the archiitrave and the window sill ... too hard to fix so we have accepted it and we had problems with the gutters at the front. Good luck on Monday - hope you don't find much wrong!!

Don’t take the keys until all the issues fixed by PD...They don’t respond to phones or mails once we get the keys...We were in hurry to move into our new house during Easter break hence got the keys on April -5th with few outstanding Issues and also we found few more major issues after we moved in...Our SS suggested that he will get all of them fixed in next couple of weeks...But it’s more than 2 weeks and no one turned back to fix anything....we are keep on sending mails to BC and SS with most urgent issues but no one responding...there are so many minor issues but we asked below 10 as most priority and get it fixed immediately...

we are living in our new house but not with 100% satisfaction and never ever expect this from PD....very frustrating

1. Leakage in garage just on top of ducted vacuuming unit
2. Range hood cover extension is not still installed and it looks very ugly to see aluminium foil – waiting for it from last 3 weeks
3. We have done pre wiring for down lights. But in Rumpus room, they have done wiring just under beam and unable to fix down lights – it’s very strange how could they do that when we asked for down lights pre wiring
4. Front render – did wrong colour combination and waiting for the renderer to change it from last 3 weeks
5. Lock is broken from garage to house access door and we feel this is more unsecured issue
6. Dead lock is not working for Laundry door
7. Rubber came out from bi fold door and wind \ dust coming from the gaps
8. Upstairs Toilet is over flowing with water
9. The Games floors outside the door of Bed 2 and 3 squeaks when walked upon as do the floors within these bedrooms and it’s very very irritating
10. The finished ground level down the left hand side of this home has not been finished to fall away from the edges of the slab

Hi monkeypantz, we built the drysdale too, we have been in our home for 5 weeks.
