Happy for you both and hoping your list gets cleared toot-sweet I don't feel sorry for tradies who thieve, take no pride in their work and basically don't care whether your house falls down because of their crappy workmanship.

In on Tuesday. Appliances on Friday. Lots of issues but I will tell more latter. Been hectic to say the least. Re: Simonds Homes- Hudson (Aurora Wollert build thread) 226Feb 14, 2016 7:08 am pwu so how did you notice the evp's enviroseal was not isntalled? how did you check it? goody I looked at the cooling tower on roof, you have to take out a panel and look through the fan area with a torch. The seal is the size of the throat of tower and is aluminium and has two huge flaps that closes off throat when unit is not operating. If you see the bottom of the large shaft where the duct works run off you don't have the seal fitted. The seal allows the unit to be BAL 12.5 compliant. You can't miss seeing the enviroseal.

Building Simonds Hudson viewtopic.php?f=31&t=80646 Re: Simonds Homes- Hudson (Aurora Wollert build thread) 235Mar 22, 2016 8:12 pm Halcyon How's it going goody, dare I ask? Are Simonds following up on all the things needing to be fixed? I have been busier than a one legged man in an *ss kicking contest and apologise to all about not getting back on to Homeone Forum for updates. Things are going well. There was a few construction issues that continued even after handover. Some have been attended to. I have two left. One was opaque glass replacement that should occur this week. The last one is 8 floor tiles are to be replaced. That should happen within next 2 weeks. Sorry Tomcat. I have taken some photos and need to get them into my photobucket and onto a thread soon. I will keep trying to get this done. Re: Simonds Homes- Hudson (Aurora Wollert build thread) 236Mar 22, 2016 10:25 pm I also want Mrs Goody to take a photo of you in that contest - upload that one too GREAT to hear from you and good that it's almost done Re: Simonds Homes- Hudson (Aurora Wollert build thread) 237Apr 19, 2016 12:54 pm Heeeyyyy goody, just here for my monthly check in how's it going? Surely everything is right as rain now?

Surely everything is right as rain now? All good. I am at the 3 month mark so time to submit maintenance issues. I have one in mind, a restricted air flow in heating duct for our bedroom but that is about it. I have looked in ceiling and there is nothing obvious why airflow restricted as there is no kinks in the short run duct work. I will leave it to Simonds to investigate, I suspect some obstruction in the duct itself like that white insulation material in duct lining. I have taken care of the other items that I could have left and added to maintenance list. I have a week off next week so I will paint and attach my skirting I had left off to place my own vinyl floor planks. My electrical is all but one extra bathroom exhaust all complete now. The lighting had come up a treat. There was about 50 or so lights placed in the last week. Re: Simonds Homes- Hudson (Aurora Wollert build thread) 240May 30, 2016 8:35 pm Hi Goody, how was your overall quality of the build? I'm also building with Simonds but I feel like it's all bad reviews on them ??? i - First Time Building - Aurora Stage 24b - Simonds - Hi, Apologies - I know there is plenty out there on this but struggling to put together the puzzle. We're planning our garage/external laundry to master bedroom and… 0 11143 Thank you so much everyone. This all makes a lot of sense. I guess when you talk to a builder who butters up everything to look very polished, you get to start believing… 7 17711 3 48556 |
