Hope it's going well today Stilettos & Bricks -our Building Journey Blog https://stilettosbricks.com viewtopic.php?f=31&t=85183&hilit=secret+harbour SLIGHTLY WARPED Southport HGWA Madora Bay WA 847Oct 03, 2016 4:10 pm Got to PCI about 10 minutes early, after grabbing a much needed coffee. Ron, our SS, was already there, and had opened our home up. We spoke briefly about his holiday, and that while he was gone, not a lot had happened. A clean hadn't been done of the home (booked in for tomorrow!!) and Ron queried that the PCI had been booked too early, as there were many small things that needed fixing. We decided to go ahead with it, as we had been keeping a list of items that required attention. My Wifey's awesome list. Attention to detail. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ We went through our list, with Ron agreeing to everything. He was quite happy with the Wife's list. So much so, that he wrote on the PCI, to go by our list. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Throughout the build, we were checking items such as: Cornice White set Brickwork Tiling Glass Window frames As we hadn't been in the home for some time, we double checked everything, but concentrated on: 1)Powerpoints working (91 individual points checked with iPhone chargers!!) 2)Doors open/close (one hard to close) 3)Hot/cold running water (took bucket to check washing machine taps and fridge tap) 4) carpet (had ripple in our bedroom) 5) lights (two weren't working) 6) all other electrical (range hood, exhaust fans, aircon [it actually tripped the fuse when we went from cold to hot]) We are currently writing out the revised PCI, before emailing to our CLO, and a hard copy to Ron. Overall, we were very happy with our home. My stunning Wifey having fun.

Good idea it's a pain having things fixed while your trying to move in. There was a couple of things we missed and didn't find until after we moved in but they were very quick to fix them. Your house is looking amazing. All in all I thing we had good builds. Congratulations. I bet you can't wait to move in. Re: SLIGHTLY WARPED Southport HGWA Madora Bay WA 849Oct 03, 2016 6:29 pm Yay!!!

Re: SLIGHTLY WARPED Southport HGWA Madora Bay WA 854Oct 04, 2016 7:57 pm Congrats spuddles! Nearly there... Don't do what I (idiot) did with those great temp blinds and stuck them to the plaster rather than the aluminium frames... :// Re: SLIGHTLY WARPED Southport HGWA Madora Bay WA 855Oct 04, 2016 7:59 pm Those temp blinds are great - i had them on my previous build. Bought mine from bunnings (haven't seen them since). The ones i had peeled off easily from the window frames after 4 years View thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=83776&start=80 Building SOR with Dreamstart Homes Customised Dream Dior/Summer Sensation https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=83776 Re: SLIGHTLY WARPED Southport HGWA Madora Bay WA 856Oct 04, 2016 8:01 pm Congrats on successful pci.
