For example corners and walls? @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Yes they have Orph. Got phonecall today asking if we wanted to delay PCI as painters didn't turn up to do external painting, under stairs to one side and new architraves around stacker door (as they had left it uncovered til height was correct) and stain stairs/door, blinds not in as painters didn't turn up and renderers didn't get back to finish top of piers. We decided to still go ahead with PCI otherwise we'd be waiting another 2 weeks to book inspector in! I figure there shouldn't be too many issues with the things left (I hope anyway) and I'll ask to che k them when they are done so they can be fixed up before handover too if need be! Yeah if it's just painting then should be fine for PCI. Ours have more structural & fixtures (taps, carpets, cupboards, lights, pergola etc) which are not done yet so no way it will pass M QA inspectors by Friday so we delayed to mid next week. @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2408Mar 17, 2017 12:51 pm Orpheus kylz4 Yeah ours is very minimal. Have you got a closer pic? Could they not put a little slope under the carpet so there was no straight up step?? Just this one. I've seen it in all M display homes. However this is not the case with other display homes in NSW.

I prefer same height. The reason why it's a step up is because the tilers have to do screeding to adjust the floor level so it slopes towards the drainage hole. @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2410Mar 17, 2017 4:58 pm Kylz how did PCI go? @Orph Build thread: viewtopic.php?t=78328 Home Furniture: viewtopic.php?t=80551 Technology Hub: viewtopic.php?t=83663 Landscape Design: viewtopic.php?t=80645 Orpheus Building the Metricon Glendale 38|Sydney Re: Building Metricon Glendale 42 Limited Edition in Geelong 2412Mar 17, 2017 6:13 pm Thanks for asking Orph and Emmz, but.... Pffft, have to do it again in a few weeks as there was too much not finished off! We thought it was just external painting, render to front piers and blinds to go so went ahead with it but inspector found A LOT more issues and had a go at site manager!! Think he will get in a bit of trouble when report goes through!! Hoping they will push through issues and have re inspection in a few weeks and then there should barely be any defects and handover should be quite quick! ???
