Our WRONG kitchen tap which we're STILL waiting for the correct one to come literally just exploded on us tonight. Turned it on and the top off literally just fell off laving water EVERYWHERE and all over our ceiling. The tap literally could have hit someone in the face and now we're concerned that our ceiling is damaged. I have no idea what trades Porter Davis are hiring but so far with our experience it sounds like they are cutting costs and using cheap trades. I'd say it again, what a joke.

Re: Porter Davis homes 7838Aug 13, 2013 7:47 pm hocm Thanks for the response guys. No good service to report of here unfortunately. We got called a week ago saying your appointment will be in a weeks time. There are no other time slots. Want another one? It will be a month away. BC was lacking in information and mentioned that more information will come through in the post. When I raised up the point that we have only a week for “more” information via the post to arrive, I was assured that they use express mail which takes a day to arrive hence information will be with me tomorrow. This was a week ago. Our tender appointment is now tomorrow and we have no information except for chicken scratchings I did while on the phone a week ago. Brilliant… Hi hocm, Could you please PM me with your proposed build and contact details and I will ensure that the relevant managers are made aware of this situation prior to your tender appt tomorrow?

We had the intention on the day of paying but ended up not. It was a bit of a disaster to be honest. That said, it lasted about a week and everything was back on track. I will say everything has gone pretty much to plan since then. Although we are only just about to start frames tomorrow. Clairemumto5 - how is your build going now? Any news on your slab pour? Mummadj - how is your place going? Re: Porter Davis homes 7840Aug 13, 2013 10:13 pm Hi ajd Feels a little slow at the moment. There has been quite a bit of plaster patching to do which has held up the painters a little. However painters are on site preparing lots of things. Plasterers hopefully back later in the week to tidy up all the bits - there is a lot of pencil on the walls detailing all the bits that need fixing or slight dents that need filling etc. The garage has been plastered inside fully with ceiling and walls and cornices. Also the Alfresco ceiling has been done. Pretty much for the next 2 weeks will be the painters inside, plus the inside of garage, garage and alfresco eaves and ceiling. Thank goodness I don't have to paint all that! A few other bits and bobs being fixed along the way. So I am still working on all my post handover quotes - fencing, driveway, pool fencing! Nearly there!!! Good luck with the framing - it is great to walk around in the rooms and get a feel for your floorplan.
