Re: Building Custom Design with Fairmont Homes - Lewiston SA 57May 23, 2016 10:20 pm Oh, and I wanted to ask - upthread a bit you mentioned you had delays with electricity being connected. When I spoke to the SS the other week he told me that there had been delays with our electricity being connected and it would not be connected until late June. Did the lack of electricity hold any trades up or did they just keep working? Re: Building Custom Design with Fairmont Homes - Lewiston SA 58May 24, 2016 9:54 am Bobbin Oh, and I wanted to ask - upthread a bit you mentioned you had delays with electricity being connected. When I spoke to the SS the other week he told me that there had been delays with our electricity being connected and it would not be connected until late June. Did the lack of electricity hold any trades up or did they just keep working? We still have no power and were advised yesterday by the electrician that it wouldn't be happening until Friday. I have no idea why there are delays with this as the Metricon build next door has had power since they started building. At this stage the only thing it has delayed is the completion of the extra electrical work we are getting done as they need the power to test what they have done. The other trades have just worked around it. I know that the tiler wasn't happy about it though as he likes to work longer hours and couldn't because he had no lights so he probably took an extra couple of days than planned. The thing that concerns me at the moment is that hubby has just driven past and seen that the carpet is being installed, so now I'm worried that when the electricians go in they're going to muddy up the carpets!

Or maybe the SS can put the sticky plastic down so that the carpet doesn't get trashed. I feel for you! Building a custom Sterling home in Adelaide.
