Only minor defects should need to be fixed after PCI. If there are significant defects yet to be fixed you should not agree to conduct the PCI or sign anything until they are fixed. How will you use your kitchen if they remove your bench, for example. Once PCI is complete they can issue your final invoice for payment at handover. Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 312Mar 11, 2020 8:44 pm Quick question. Presentation is there a set amount of time for the handover? I'll be going overseas soon and won't be back till just after Easter. Would that be a problem? Presentation is pushed till Monday btw Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 313Mar 11, 2020 8:53 pm Freak_Zombie Quick question. Presentation is there a set amount of time for the handover? I'll be going overseas soon and won't be back till just after Easter. Would that be a problem? Presentation is pushed till Monday btw No set time. Depends on what needs to be fixed, availability of trades etc. it was 8 weeks for me. It is usually 4 weeks or more with Metricon in Vic Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 314Mar 14, 2020 10:52 am Thanks so much for the info Shokel. Had another walk around today. Another walk around today. Another potential costly mistake? They should not have installed the door handle. I did not pay for it either. I was going to install my smart door. I'm guessing they will remove it and then they'll just cover it up with putty and paint over? Would be so ugly. Paid so much for that door 😭 Also is it normal for the rain pipes to sit away from the house?

All of ours are centred. The only reason I can think is that you have a beam running through there and they had to put them to one side. I would be following that one up! Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 318Mar 14, 2020 11:56 am Just a quick one, was that Downpipe supposed to be there in the front of the entrance door ? Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 319Mar 14, 2020 12:15 pm Freak_Zombie The down pipe should not be a feature of your entrance. This needs to be moved to a more unobtrusive location. Re: Metricon Sentosa 52 Modified 320Mar 14, 2020 3:46 pm Ozshaz Just a quick one, was that Downpipe supposed to be there in the front of the entrance door ? Yup it is meant to run down that side. It's even there at all the display homes and there was another instagrammer who had the sentosa build who was not happy with it but it had to be there. It should be painted as well so hopefully it will look better. Hi, First of all, thank you to this community for sharing your thoughts and opinions.
