Building with Wisdom Homes

Thanks for the feedback all.

We have decided to just leave it. We do however need to sort out the square set height. Wisdom usually line the square set up with the top of the door frame heights. As our ceiling is 3.2 meters this means the square set will drop down about 750mm which is quite big.

Wisdom have asked what we want it at..  Like  ⋅  Add a comment  ⋅  Pin to Ideaboard  ⋅  Share

Anyone else have experience with square sets on super high ceilings? You can see how far they come down (the black marks)

Hi Kvav27, We were also quite overwhelmed as not knowing the unknown as what will be the process from PCI to handover.
We completed our handover today, and are very delighted!! and plan to move within next 2 weeks!
I found process fairly simple - it was basically dependent on 2 things:
- Final inspection by private certifier (SBAC)
- Final settlement of account

First one was done within couple of days of PCI, and we did account settlement today for handover (there was nothing else that I am aware of)!
We had our PCI scheduled last Tuesday and got handover today.
Since ours was a KDRB, I figured also did not need an Interim Occupancy Cert, as it is generally required for council if they need to provide new bins (for e.g. in case of new developments).

Hope that helps.[/quote]Wow only a week from PCI to handover. That's awesome. I wish mine would be that quick. I don't like my chances as the final parts of my build and trades to get me to PCI were really slow so I'm wondering if it'll be the same to fix defects from PCI. Hope my SS can pick up the pace as he's expecting a baby so hope house is done before the arrival. The clock really starts now for when my pci starts because they gave me the keys to tile my house and I advised them today I completed it so trades can now be booked in.

Sediment control after demolition:

My CSR has advised that we need to sort out our own sediment control after demolition. Demo starts on Monday and is projected to take 2 weeks. Then it will be Xmas so I doubt our site checks etc will be done before Jan 2019.

Our tender has this clause, does thus mean WH will do sediment control? (Will post in next comment as I can’t seem to attach using my phone)

Becks81, dont remember doing anything ourselves for sediment control for our KDRB, probably was all done by W.

Our knock down started today. Site Demos are charging us $400-500 for sediment control. Our slab won't go down for at least another 2-3months. We thought we had to pay for sediment control until Wisdom took over.. hmm

So did they replace the shower screen before handover of are they completing some works post handover?

We requested W for an early handover, and then continue with works post handover.
For e.g., Driveway is yet to go in, and shower screen to be replaced

singalg . Thanks for the details. One more question, For Final settlement of account, when did Wisdom gave you invoice? and how long did bank took to release payment?

TIA

Kvav27, we did not have any bank involved. We actually had received a variation from W (credit note) that I had to sign and send back, the final statement was issued the same day too. so it was all done within a couple of days of PCI.
