However I still dont really like it as the battens colour. I wish they were monument so that it really contrasted against the white. The window hood is also going to be white, again I think it might look better as monument but we will see how it looks and maybe paint it later. Thanks for all the compliments and assuring words guys! Fingers crossed we get an update on PCI soon. Re: CABINETS/TILES Valeco Homes - Polished Concrete + Monoch 415Mar 20, 2018 5:16 pm I think monument would look more striking but they grey looks nice too and ties in well. Defs can't be long now! Re: CABINETS/TILES Valeco Homes - Polished Concrete + Monoch 416Mar 20, 2018 8:52 pm Just got a response, our window hood just hasn't been put on yet so that's a relief. They will rectify the alfresco asap. No update on the battens yet. But we should hopefully have PCI in a couple of weeks! Yay!!

Naww, thanks for checking in! Unfortunately we still have not had an update. We emailed them yesterday for an update, so hopefully soon we'll have some solid dates for PCI and handover. Re: ALMOST PCI Valeco Homes - Polished Concrete + Monochrome 419Apr 05, 2018 6:44 pm Drove past the house again this afternoon because we haven't had any updates for 2 weeks (2 weeks ago they said PCI would be in roughly 2 weeks). We emailed them on Tuesday for updates and they still hadn't replied today, so I figured I may as well look myself. The alfresco is still looking exactly the same: so they haven't even begun removing it to then start redoing it properly. The gaps in the floor still haven't been fixed. Window hood still not on yet. I noticed we have a clothesline and a letterbox though, and floors were uncovered (but still dirty.. I will wait until they are cleaned and we can get inside before I take any photos). I'm expecting the above alfresco and floor gaps issues to take a while to be completed so I'm not holding my breathe for a PCI date yet. Re: ALMOST PCI Valeco Homes - Polished Concrete + Monochrome 420Apr 09, 2018 5:09 pm how annoying staceyrussell - especially when its so close of being completed. Hopefully you'll get action this week. We've had very little progress over Easter, and apparently a lot of materials were stolen from our site which again has slowed things. If there was more action on site, im sure things wouldn't go missing. Where is that window hood?! To my understanding early saw cuts are to control shrinkage cracks, so doing them now would be pointless. Control joints may reduce ugly cracking during periods of soil… 3 9830 Hi all I need a guidance on how far I need to space expansion joints in the concrete driveway and its type (keyway/foam.) Contraction joints are at 3m max for a 125 slab. Thanks 0 10926 |
