A bit disappointing but these things do happen and a call to the office got things resolved quickly. So excited to see things really coming together now!

Celebrations do a "lock up meeting", other builders might call it a tiler's meeting or something else. It's actually the first time we've had an on site meeting - I know others do a few along the way, so it's really up to how the company operates. They have 10 working days after PCI for fixing any issues and then we get keys. If there's very few issues though it could be sooner than that!
