Browse Forums Building A New House Re: KDR - Rawson Balmoral (Modified) Sydney NSW 98Jul 20, 2021 9:06 pm Week 54 The builder has started working through the list from the PCI walk through....
Also, after the formwork was stripped from the driveway crossover a 6" to 8" wide by 4" to 6" deep trench remained either side of the new concrete. As landscaping is not in the contract scope the builder just removed the formwork and left it. It's quite a trip hazard out on the public nature strip so I'm a bit surprised they're not more concerned about it, after all they're still in control of the site so if any one gets hurt it's on their insurance. Anyway, we got some rolls of turf and leveled it all out to make sure no one could get hurt. The NSW government has now shut down construction for 2 weeks to get on top of the latest COVID outbreak so handover is on hold until construction works are allowed.

Reminds me of the wisecrack Josh Frydenberg made this week... "the hardest thing about the one-week lockdowns in Victoria is getting through the third and the fourth week"... and it appears we're no different here in Sydney, these lockdowns seem to be going on forever. Fortunately the construction bans have been relaxed (subject to a bunch of vaccination requirements) and the builder has restarted working through the list from the PCI walk through...
Also, the project arborist completed his final inspection and certified that all the trees have been suitably protected as per the conditions of the DA.... this is just the first of a long list of things we need to supply to the Certifier.

Also, the Tesla gateway cabinet has a decorative glass cover which smashed into about a thousand pieces when the door was left poorly secured by one of the contractors and flapped around during some high winds. I guess it's better that we learned this lesson before we had handover.
