The lack of cleaning alone is enough to set me off, let alone all the other poor finishes. Keep hastling, it really is not good enough. PS. I love the one shelf for him, the rest for her in the shoe cupboard Building Stroud 30 in Lake Macquarie Re: Our Benham 33 journey 3153May 24, 2013 2:05 pm Your shoe rack tarsha it reminds me of my shoe collection before I had kids. Now it is a bit pathetic, and the heels aren't as plentiful. Apart from the things that need to be fixed - I can now see why you say your paint work is crap - as just those photos show its pretty poor. It is not a spraying issue, it is a lazy issue and they need to be fixed. You my dear have a STUNNING house - I can totally see why everyone that you know loves it.

As that's what our place looks like now and the painters are still painting I agree bigted - pathetic effort. MelC was your clean like this?

I don't know if you agree but I have found moving in a bitter sweet experience. Whilst I love our new house, I feel upset that we don't have everything complete (especially the dishwasher!) & I asked them over a week ago for window keys & still no response. I consider this to be important as all the windows are locked & maybe we would like to open them! I don't have bins as no one knows where the occupation certificate is and my power was nearly disconnected yesterday as someone @ R chose who our power supplier would be with & the bill was not sent to our rental address & a disconnection notice came yesterday saying if we didn't pay it by the 23rd May (the day it came) it would be disconnected. I called & sorted it straight away. Lucky they built our letterbox (its still not rendered of course!) so we got our mail yesterday. Our SS said that when you start building your CSO is supposed to ask you who your power supplier is and your account number so it's all under our names. This did not happen with us & they would have known about it if the power was discontinued yesterday!! Was anyone else given the decision to choose their own power supplier or even know they have to pay for the power during the build? Anyway that's enough of my ranting lol & Jen my house was not as bad as Tarshas but not much better. I have not stopped cleaning this week & my biggest complaint is that the tradies used our toilets & they didn't even have the cleaners clean them before we moved in!!! Besides all of that I still love our new home & we were fortunate to have a really good SS Re: Our Benham 33 journey 3157May 25, 2013 7:08 am Hi Tarsha, I'm so sorry to hear about your issues with Rawson. It is extremely unprofessional of them. I agree with Glacier that you need to take it further with someone higher up as I really think they should know about this. I'm sure they would want to know too. It puts such a downer on what is supposed to be a very exciting time. You shouldn't have to be on site all the time to make sure they are doing the right thing, unthought that's what the SS was for?? On a positive note, you have an awesome shoe rack, I'm very jealous!!! Genious idea from you!!! Your house does look gorgeous and I love your bed!!! Just keep hassling until you get it all sorted. I know you shouldn't have to but keep at it. I hope everything is resolved ASAP : ) Re: Our Benham 33 journey 3158May 25, 2013 7:58 am Mel my CSO who I have been told no longer works for Rawson, told me as soon as we had a SS that she no longer dealt with us and I have never heard from her again. We received a letter a couple of weeks ago from e energy Australia confirming our electrical connection with them, but that is it. We have not had the opportunity to choose our supplier. I will speak to our SS about the cleaning next week, as I want it clean when I move in.
