In my opinion, it was a combo of a few things: - Power utility indecisive about the "preferred location" for the power dome - Water utility taking a long time to move the meter and pipe (lots of backward and forward about what was actually required) - Power contractor originally assigned to our job going bust in September, leading to a backlog of jobs for the other contractor taking over our job - Gas utility installing the new gas main on an incorrect alignment, despite drawing a "Dial Before You Dig" style plan on the inside of the new meter box showing it 1.0m from the fence, it was actually ~0.5m from the fence (????!!!) - Contracts admin at my builder not chasing up and pushing the issue effectively. Soooooooooo frustrating! Re: New Home - Summit Homes 'The Orchard' - Perth SOR 77Nov 20, 2017 7:50 pm Glad we have got most of this done ourselves without much delay. We had to supply the WP contractor a cadastral survey and then still had to get them back out to shift the dome closer to the fence. Hopefully handover is not far away now.
