PCI Booked!! 226Aug 25, 2013 10:14 am Congrats! Love the couch. We officially have internet & TV now, SO good. Had our maintenance fix up and everything is now good as new! Gonna get a quote for the rear deck soon. Or consider DIY with others that know what they're doing. You must be excited! Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. PCI Booked!! 229Aug 25, 2013 7:28 pm The driveway looks great now, glad it worked out. When is your PCI? We just had ours. Best advice i had was to check the doorways to the carpeted areas for nails that stick up, we found 2. Good luck with PCI.

Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. PCI Booked!! 230Aug 25, 2013 7:46 pm PCI is this Friday 30th. Thanks for the tip, I will actually be asking then to redo our carpets as you can see the joins quite bad and it looks like it's just not tight enough (lots of bubbling) Our independant inspector will be there at thr same time too. Oh well fingers crossed not too many other problems Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. PCI Booked!! 231Aug 25, 2013 8:50 pm We had our independent inspector there at the same time too. Went well not too many things to be fixed up. Hope yours goes well too.

Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. PCI Booked!! 232Aug 26, 2013 10:18 am nickvee PCI is this Friday 30th. That's excellent. So jealous! Ours keeps getting further and further away. Two weeks now with nothing done at all. Explanation given that the SS is focusing on a number of display homes. Trades also being put on those. You'd think a paying customer would take precedence over a marketing exercise. Completed a knock down and rebuild in northern Melbourne. Handover completed 27/09/2013 and now moved in. Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. PCI Booked!! 233Aug 26, 2013 10:28 am That really is a poor excuse, but, i suppose it depends on what the expected completion date in your contract is. It really sucks though, i would be complaining by now! Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Lara VIC. Handover Booked 12/9/ 234Aug 30, 2013 4:58 pm Had PCI today!! Handover is booked for 12/9 - two weeks!! Everything went well only a few minor paint issues, one chipped tile in the laundry, two missing powerpoints , a couple of outstanding items from the pre-plaster inspection also - and some insulation in the roof needs to be tidied up. Sometime in the last few days someone damaged three bricks on the front façade so need to get the brickies back to fix, hopefully not too much of a pain.

Both our supervisor and independent inspector said it was normal and that the joins will fade completely over time. I am not sure i 100% agree, but, i don't know much about carpet so i guess we kind of have to take their word for it. Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Handover Booked 12/9/13 238Aug 31, 2013 1:19 pm Great to hear you have a date! Loving this weather, finally got some weeding done. Good time of the year for you all moving in, perfect for landscaping. That bbq can't be far away! Re: Our Burbank Lukin 2800 - Handover Booked 12/9/13 240Sep 04, 2013 7:50 pm I'm glad you posted those pics about your driveway. Ours was poured at the start of the week and now looks awful. I know the seal is being done at the end of the week and the driveway is meant to be the same colour as yours - so if I hadn't seen how yours was done and ended up I'd be fuming today and they'd have been getting an annoyed phone call! lol Completed a knock down and rebuild in northern Melbourne.
