No CL we've since found out our ceiling in family room is not to plan & we aren't happy to leave it as is as it looks strange (glad I mentioned to our CSO who asked the head drafter while on ph) I think our SS thinks we are ready to handover but IT hub not fixed and SS was suppose to discuss a suitable solution with us but has just proceeded on his own WT? Plus we have a pool of wTer at front of house resting on slab where a pipes been broken since slab pour & just covered by plumber so now it's filled with debris and mud as well as broken We are at the end of our contract at the end of this month & pretty sure HO wants us finished so they don't have to pay anything - no inspection for certifier has been org either for IOC & I doubt it would pass at present anyhow Re: BL- Coral - Grange 26 - Week 21 - its like a lottery 423Apr 05, 2018 9:37 am "No CL we've since found out our ceiling in family room is not to plan & we aren't happy to leave it as is as it looks strange (glad I mentioned to our CSO who asked the head drafter while on ph)" Can you describe the problem with the family room ceiling so I can make sure we do not have the same issue. Is it related to the square set?

As that’s wrong too Yep that's wrong. Should be a square set (300 Deep) as on your plans. We have the same square set in our family room, at entrance to media room and across the hallway leading into the family room. We have replaced the IT Hub with the laundry.

They are idiots though for not being able to decipher basic plans.

Yes we did think of putting downlights there but it would actually be a bit of a cobweb hangout I think & may put potential buyers off in future ?!?

Im sure its easier to 'square set' that part than what they've done there! I know doesn’t really give you much faith does it? ...

Fingers crossed it speeds up for you yes Admin was crazy slow our original start date was May ended up being end of Sept Re: BL- Coral - Grange 26 - Week 21 - its like a lottery 433Apr 06, 2018 9:32 am BrownDog77 mpricecs We hope to have a start in May as early as the frustratingly slow admin process will possibly allow. Fingers crossed it speeds up for you yes Admin was crazy slow our original start date was May ended up being end of Sept We had a good run through admin. We originally signed with Coral in May 2017 but nothing could really happen until November 2017 when the land registered. By that time, I am pretty sure I knew the specifications inside out and had seen just about every display on the north side of Brisbane twice. We had enough time to make a million changes to our plans and soil testing was done 9 November and had results back 14 November. However, supervisor couldn't get onsite until 23 November due to estate temporary fencing still up. So, we were expecting to get our tender just before Xmas closedown but we got delayed to 13 January. We made a few changes and then got our contracts on 27 January. We did our tile appointment mid February and electrical and colours on 7 March 2018 (that was our choice as had too much on). We have a start date of next week - 12 April 2018. From the outset (and I mean just our own personal timeline), we hoped to start building in March 2018, so only a couple of weeks behind. We are thrilled.

Glad you've had a good run & everything crossed it continues our land registered In March 2017 & we had done everything prior to this happening except colours & tiles etc but they were done straight away so we could start in May, unfortunately that's where C let us down as there were endless errors we picked up from them in our colour variations & final plan sign off that weren't there prev & other stuff too but all on them we just had to lump it for 6mths. Our build was awesome until after Christmas and although we were well ahead of our 216day build (which we were told would never happen or C would be out of business) it's been very slow the last 3mths. We still can't complain compared to others but I def won't be signing PCI until everything is 100% & we have same private inspector as Ryan who I'm sure will pick up things too, I don't think they have even used some things that are required for our BAL which we paid for & is a council requirement so it will be interesting to see if this is the case or not Re: BL- Coral - Grange 26 - Week 21 - its like a lottery 435Apr 06, 2018 9:46 am BrownDog77 mpricecs We hope to have a start in May as early as the frustratingly slow admin process will possibly allow.

Fingers crossed. I hope yours finishes soon and then you can move in. We would be happy if ours is finished by mid September (which gives them 5 months or 150 days) as we both work at schools and have holidays at end of September.
