Well that's one battle I won't bother with. It's very white! I assumed it was the "jg king white" they used on the ceilings. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1009Sep 08, 2017 5:27 pm Oh dear. I'm glad he is committing to fix things, but its so frustrating they don't just do it as it goes!! I have found a few cracks, I wish I had been more vigilant at PCI, but my builder was very good at distracting me. Maybe you need a few weeks away from the house (Although if your like me youll just imagine problems then). Oh no, your sick too? It must be going around, I feel awful (probably scrubbing the house didn't help, but I feel so much more relaxed now). Retail therapy for the win!! I think I will be doing some of that this weekend too. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1010Sep 08, 2017 5:51 pm aloenyx Oh dear.

I think I will be doing some of that this weekend too. I've had a sore throat all week, pretty nasty one but my head has stayed surprisingly clear (until last night anyway) so I'm not too bad (not the flu or anything), but my nose blocked up last night so I couldn't sleep, that put me in a great mood today for my run in with the SS . Now it feels like it's going to my chest . Weird thing is the rest of the fam is fine! I'm usually the healthy one! I'm blaming the bloody house stress. I'm looking forward to the tiles so fingers crossed that goes well and I can focus on that for a while. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1011Sep 08, 2017 5:59 pm Hah... I'm the same, I'm usually the healthy one. Mine started with a cough, and then chills, night sweats, sneezing, headaches. I think I do have a flu But I'll be right. I can't wait to see your tiles either. They will be amazing! My bricks, tiles and lighting are the only things about my house that I like. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1012Sep 08, 2017 9:46 pm bank emts Just to top out the day, we had our walk through today and I specifically asked about the color of the eves. and he said same thing as yours it is all now a set color (think he called it mystic) Thanks. Well that's one battle I won't bother with. It's very white! I assumed it was the "jg king white" they used on the ceilings. if you had not brought it up first i would prob have commented further to him. (maybe they read this and it's a conspiracy..) he said it was the outdoor version of our indoor ceiling colour. that also said, we were looking at colours prior to his arrival, and had both decided we did not like surfmist with the other colours. so anything else is a plus. so the only thing left surfmist is the downpipes near the render. I am going to ask if we can do these in the same colour as the render and ditch it completely.

Judging by the large piece of aquachek in the skip I think the plumber has moved the basin taps! Not entirely sure why they need to remove so much, I guess now we have to wait for a plasterer before waterproofing. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1016Sep 12, 2017 2:28 pm Electricians have been and cut holes today. Unfortunately not without issue, sadly I have come to expect that now. Hopefully they had just gone offsite for lunch because they have left the door unlocked, missed a few, and put a few in the wrong spots. The down lights in the dining and family have been cut in completely different spots to where they were roughed in so our ridiculously large insulation holes are not even where the lights will be . Contrary to the plans and the rough in they have put them along the edge of the room this time. Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1017Sep 12, 2017 2:43 pm is this where I start auctioning off my Supervisor? that said looks like we will be one of the last he will hand over in our area, they have too many contracts so splitting it up and he is hiring a lackey to cover our area.

Should have unlatched a back door while I had the chance but hubby wouldn't let me. It looked like they had been back and moved the fridge point higher. We requested this at rough-in both directly and via the SS but they just ignored both of us. No. 4 said he has some mates at the electricians and if we got someone he knew he could probably get it moved, if not they likely wouldn't budge. I guess he remembered! I'm wishing hubby had mentioned the other 2 requests now, none of them were changes from the plans just height instructions that the electrical girl refused to put on the plans . From what we can see there are still several holes missing and some mistakes (e.g. Down light hole cut where there should be a batten for a future pendant), so I thought they we be back this morning, but no! I guess we've had our 2 days of trades for the week . It almost seems like they didn't bring the plans again (this happened at rough in) and they were relying solely on the floor marks, so anywhere that was covered by the plaster stacks, is now covered by cabinets, or chipped away with the changes in the bathroom, hasn't been done. We were really hoping to get in and further investigate the pile of insulation that we can see in the ensuite shower, really hoping they haven't left it out of the wall when they moved the taps 🤦♀️. Still no screeding or kitchen fixes. https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_ ... are_type=t Re: JG King modified Heywood - Rectification work 1020Sep 13, 2017 1:53 pm That's frustrating bank...
