Any other major issues? 1. Kitchen island bench may need a panel replaced due to scratching/scuffing/dints that occurred during the build. 2. Brick work needs further treating to remove green & orange spots, as well as ensuring the mortar stain is true off-white 3. Some lights not working, switches missing 4. WIR fit out not installed at all (in fact SS thought we had deleted it) 5. External antenna not installed 6. Did I mention the paintwork is rubbish? 7. some funny stain that has appeared on two of our stone bench tops in the kitchen. 8. Windows need re-adjusting 9. Alfresco doors need adjusting 10. fence needs a clean off (still got excess mortar spray) 11. Some plaster missing above door frame in bathroom (dunno how this was missed!) 12. Various dints and bumps throughout the entire house (which is to be expected) The fact that the paint work was so poor forced us to check everything with a fine tooth comb today. Very disappointed that we had NHP today when these errors were glaring, and should have been sorted out before we attended. Further to it, we've had access to the house consistently, and over the last week or so, it appears next to nothing had been done. Fuming!!!

What's the plan now? Will they have to fix it all in the next week?

Just feels like a complete lack of care lately. Our SS has promised to have the place fixed this week and we have scheduled now to meet Monday morning for settlement. I will be visiting the place a few more times this week to ensure we are not going to be delayed any further. But to be honest, we don't have a lot of time left. We need to be out of our rental by next Thursday, so things could be cut a little fine. We've had a great experience with our SS up until this point, so we are confident that he will have the issues fixed. We are really crossing our fingers now.

Up until this point we've relied on a family member who is a chippie to help guide our process, and up until this moment, all has been ok. We had a rather robust discussion with our SS today about the quality of the paint, referring to the fact that we're using MainVue, not Henley, which is expected to be the higher standard. We've given our expectations, and will not settle/hand over cheque until all of these issues are rectified. How goes your settlement? Has everything gone well for you? Oh I thought you had inspector, must be someone else. Seer learn for me tomorrow, moving Wed. But bank issues so will believe it when I get a cheque in my hand I take it you mean settlement tomorrow? How frustrating have the holidays been on all things bank related! OMG, what a massive pain in the you know what! Good luck tomorrow, Megan. We'll be thinking of you. Look forward to hearing how your settlement goes.

Depends on the style you want. Do you want… 1 639 Soak wells and electrical run in happening this week! Summit has told me they will relocate the laundry plumbing after the walls are completed.
