Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Fowler homes - santorini 101Sep 12, 2016 11:41 pm That's awesome thanks. Yep just wanted a rough idea. $200? $10,000? Had no idea. Cheers Re: Fowler homes - santorini 102Oct 04, 2016 12:17 pm Quick update. Last week: Fixed the wardrobe fit outs Tiled laundry splash back and fixed tap plumbing in wall Started drive way excav Just spoke to SS, this week: Painting should be done Wednesday Driveway pouring hopefully Friday Power connection either this week or next. With 2 big weeks we could get to handover by contact date 15/10 !! Re: Fowler homes - santorini 104Oct 15, 2016 8:46 pm Update. Driveway complete Painting complete Pci this coming Tuesday Just a few things left: Swapping tapware to correct style Monday Ducted getting connected Monday Splash backs Tuesday Cleaners Tuesdays Can only see a few small things to fix up at the moment. Could be looking at keys this weekend but more likely next weekend 😆😆 Re: Fowler homes - santorini 107Oct 15, 2016 9:34 pm scottbradly86 Update.

It's not bout just getting the keys. My settlementwas friday, didnt happen way too many things im not happy with. I can be labelled as being fussy, annoying having ocd whatever! I dont like it im paying good money for it FIX IT!! Hopefully yours isnt too bad though Re: Fowler homes - santorini 108Oct 16, 2016 5:40 am Yep very true. Luckily because I've been in pretty much every afternoon since we started i have picked up on alot and got it sorted already. Is still a few things though and will give it a good look on Tuesday. See what else o can find. Re: Fowler homes - santorini 109Oct 19, 2016 9:25 pm So I'm confused as to whether yesterday was "PCI" to the letter on the law as we haven't received written notice etc. But in any case, did a walk through and pointed out everything we could see. Taking a builder mate of mine through on Saturday to get a better eye on it. They said everything should be fixed and sorted by end of next week and letting us get our carpet installed. They were good about everything, no arguments about anything we pointed out as an issue. Just have to wait and see how next week goes.

Re: Fowler homes - santorini 112Oct 20, 2016 8:54 pm BL35ED What were your issues mate?? I had a list somewhere, cant find it at the moment. Off the top of my head:
There were some other things but i cant remember at the moment. Will update that list later when i find what i wrote down. Nothing major really, just touch up stuff. Taking a mate of mine that is a builder there on Saturday so see if he can find anything, Fowler Santorini 35 Tender - Oct 14 Dirt turned - Apr 16 Slab - Apr 16 Frames/Truss - Apr 16 Roof tiles - May 16 Sheeting - June 16 Lockup -June 16 http://bradlysantorini.blogspot.com.au/ Re: Fowler homes - santorini 113Oct 25, 2016 9:14 am Few more pics and update at the end.

Air con went in yesterday. Jar missing the slim line rectangle ones. Painters coming back to touch up today. Cleaners coming through tomorrow. Site clean this week i think. Could be in track for completion this week... Just confused about how the contract end and handover goes. Like when we get occupancy cert, bank evaluation etc. Looking good at the moment though. Re: Fowler homes - santorini 117Oct 27, 2016 10:16 am Yeah the color has come up really good. In fact petty much all the colors look really good together (phew). Inside clean yesterday came up pretty good, just a bit of paint on tiles and some stuff to spot clean here and there. Appliances getting delivered today and installed tomorrow. I think at this point we are just going to proceed with handover asap and fix up some things later. I think there is a 13 week defect maintenance period. Bit risky but we need to be out of the house we sold in just over a week. Re: Fowler homes - santorini 118Oct 30, 2016 8:18 am Carpet installed yesterday Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Bit darker than we remember but once furniture goes it hoping it will break it up a bit. Tomorrow air con getting finished (didn't bring the slim line vents before) And site clean i think and fencing down. Tuesday pantry shelving. Annnnd that's it i think. Handover booked for Thursday! Just need the final invoice so we can book a valuation with the bank and get the occupancy certificate. Re: Fowler homes - santorini 120Oct 30, 2016 9:55 pm Mate im happy for you i just cant believe you started 18 March this year and are actually getting handover.
