Browse Forums Building A New House 1 May 13, 2018 7:25 am Hi, We are getting close to our finish date and our house has had a bit of a clean up, we had a chance to get a look at it today now the dirt has been cleaned off, and I was quite shocked at the scrapes on the aluminium window frames, what are people’s thought on these, should we push to get these fixed/ replaced, as l am not happy about these. We also found several damaged floor tiles, plus a serious leak around a big window which has caused the sill to swell. ( first decent rain we have had since our build started) Attached a few images, l am interested in people’s thoughts.
