Ray seems reasonable and I will definitely mention you again tomorrow =) Unfortunately, we did not have a very good experience with our Metricon build and had 87 defects raised during PCI! Some were addressed before handover but there are some still outstanding. Just happy we have the keys now and we can finally move on from this ordeal. We just hope Metricon does the right thing and fix all the defects. When we settle in and I have a bit more time I will update the blog with the details.

Thanks Syd Sorry to hear about the experience. 87 defects is huge! Wonder on average, what is acceptable? Our SM has been pretty good now - and not like initially - may be he has warmed up to us; we don't even get updates these days - but I am ok as long as things move along. But we are nearly 'home' anyway. Looking forward to your pics and blog update Good to see you you will be having Xmas in your new home Metricon Glendale 38 - viewtopic.php?f=31&t=75696&p=1298363#p1298363 Selections: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=75696&start=60 Tiles - p25 Re: KDRB Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney) - Fixing stage 1267Dec 08, 2015 9:21 pm The garage looks great Mona!!

Tiles have been delivered for weeks - when painting started. 2 weeks till M break for Xmas - so wonder if there is enough time for them to tile?! :/ don't want a rush job!

Have they stored it somewhere securely? Perhaps being paranoid but don't want ours to sit on the tile during shut down. In case some starts liking it a bit too much! I'd be the same, I'd rather they take time and do a proper job with the tiles viewtopic.php?t=78985 Re: KDRB Metricon Glendale 38 (Sydney) - Fixing stage 1270Dec 08, 2015 9:33 pm Franky40 Oh that's right I forgot your tiles were delivered sometime ago.

Had a voicemail from the SM today with an update. Wardrobe shelving has gone in (which wasn't a lot - and we need to revisit once we have moved in). Not sure when the tiler will be able to come - but the fact tiles are there, it is a 'good sign'. SM said they are trying to do as much as they can. Mum drove past, and apparently electricians were on site today. I have asked if we can see the place on 21st pre Xmas shut down - will be a nice birthday present. SM is back from leave on 11th January - this will really test my patience but we are nearly 'home'.
