The FIRST MEETING with the SS at Site: Hi are you Dean the SS. "Yes I am". Ok we can't stand here at the front as the workers are putting up tiles. So let's go to the back side" Me: OK. Going to the back side of house . After one min of silence. Me : so can you tell me how things are progressing? SS: the frame is nearly finished and today we are installing roof tiles.... Silence... Me: So can you show me around the progress of the framing. SS: "you can't go upstairs as they are tiling. So you can look around the ground floor... Me: OK. Going around the house. Noticed many pieces are not joined together. Some with 2 cm gaps in between hanging on nails. Me : Looks like these are not joined properly. SS: YEAH it looks like it. Silence.. Me: so are you going to fix it or what is the plan?? SS: See I have not inspected the frame yet. Anyway it gets assessed and they will assess if the house is structurally sound. If they pass it it means house is structurally compliant. Me : you told you haven't inspected the house. How often do you check how things are progressing according to the plan. SS: the frame needs compliance certificate so they will assess and you have involved Darbecca. So let them asses it and we will see.. Me notices a broken piece due to nailing. : what about these ones. SS: what about it. Me : Looks like it's broken... SS: YEAH the nail has gone through the jolt on the wood. That's why it's broken. Me: is it going to get replaced. SS: it's not holding anything on its top. So.. Shrugs shoulders like whatever.... Me : what about those frame that is curvy. SS : YEAH looks like it's bent. Let them inspect the house and we will see from there. --------/ I don't know it looks like being approachable is not in his books... And I am worried about how it is going to be...

Henley also needs to rectify things from Darbecca's final report since they installed my gas meter at wrong location + many undone business inside the house. From my experience, you need to make a visit appointment with Henley Office, even not direct to your SS. After Henley officer confirmed giving you a date. A record will be noted in their system for Insurance purpose (check it in your contract). Once you have a date, then tell your Private Inspector to give them a call "just 1 day before" as introduce themselves to Henley.. lol Check terms & condition in your HIA Contract & Next Generation Specification Contract - Sec 1.6 (Henley usually tell us to ignored reading this one) .. lol Cheers Hi, If you give a set of criteria as to what means 'good' to you, it'll give others prompts to respond. We considered Henley early on but there were two factors that… 1 10441 Thanks for your reply. I will just wait and see I guess. Trying to get some more information from our builder. 9 30235 |
