We have had all of our appointments only electrical to go. Council approved we are just waiting to sell our home so we can start. Has anyone gone over their contract? Re: Coral Homes general build thread 11315Nov 27, 2018 3:39 pm MrsJM Emily_2477 We have our PCI walk through next week and we were going to get a third party inspector to come with us and inspect the property and write their report. However, we are concerned that this delay handover and we have the driveway, landscaping and fencing booked for completion prior to Xmas. We are confident we have rectified majority of the errors throughout the build (there were a few) so we don't think there will be a lot to fix before handover. Looking for some advice from people who have had the third party inspections and if anything out of ordinary was picked up? Or if we should be looking for anything in particular? Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Emily I would absolutely recommend an inspector. I’m two year post hanDover and still fighting with them on rectifying issues. Our house was never cleaned prior to handover and we did PCI the day before handover. Because everything was filthy when inspected, we couldn’t see scratches in benches and cupboards. Also, we were rushed by the supervisor (had to drive 2 hours to go and shell out for a door lock and handle as coral lost ours!) and he did tell us we could send through a list when we had the chance to go over everything properly... nightmare. It is definitely worth the money. Thank you!!! The inspector is booked and going through on Thursday morning ready for PCI on Friday afternoon!!

Downlight has died... had to lodge a claim with Clipsal which is going to take them 1-2 weeks to assess then they book in an electrician to come out, inspect and replace the downlight! If we move it from it’s location ourselves we void the warranty. It’s an ordinary bloody light switch that just plugs into the ceiling!! So a whole day off work and weeks and weeks to wait to have one light globe changed. Not worth it.

I know you will need downlight+bridge ($69+35+installation) , but you get from cool white to warm in a single light. But you get a bit more piece of mind and more modern solution there...
