Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 91Oct 17, 2017 7:10 pm This is beyond a joke. I was saying today no doubt they’re enjoying the weather and have made more excuses as to why the couldn’t work. And disappointing to that I emailed David saying the contractor refuses to return phone calls and I want to know what Moremac will be doing this week to ensure work will be completed. NO REPLY Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 94Oct 17, 2017 7:30 pm Just put in a complaint to the contractor head office so I’m really hoping I get a response. I mean how long can you drag out what they have listed in their timeline as 2-3days work Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 95Oct 17, 2017 7:42 pm There might be something wrong between moremac and the contractor. When they don't communicate the reason of delay with moremac, there might be a controversial situation . They should've changed the contractor much earlier Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 96Oct 17, 2017 9:31 pm Alysha Just put in a complaint to the contractor head office so I’m really hoping I get a response. I mean how long can you drag out what they have listed in their timeline as 2-3days work Hi Alyshia, please give us the contact details so that we can write to the head office as well. Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 98Oct 18, 2017 2:24 pm Ok just remember DO NOT SHOOT THE MESSENGER! The project has fairly well stopped. I have spoke to the director of universal concrete contractors. The asphalt isn’t actually the issue, the soil was tested and still showed too much moisture for asphalt to be laid over so they will be retesting tomorrow or Friday. Here’s the bad news, the contractors don’t have a sub station to install. Without this nothing gets finished. According to the owner of the company the configuration of sub station our estate requires are in short supply large demand. He has told me the supplier has informed him and his company the earliest they will have a sub station to him will be mid November but most likely late November. This will now push completion back till end of November. Which if it means anything should still allow builds to start January/February. He is going to try and email me through some further details on the sub station and has promised to keep me informed Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 99Oct 18, 2017 2:37 pm Hi Alysha, Even if they finish it by late Nov, which I am doubtful about. it will take another 4 weeks for title and it means that it will go after Christmas holidays. So maybe in late January the land is getting titled. So ... Re: Anyone building in Plenty Gorge Views estate, South Mor 100Oct 18, 2017 2:50 pm I know it’s absolutely ridiculous, it’s also going to be a pain as I’m guessing most of us are going to have to resubmit finance docs. I’m not sure about title offices and such but apparently some builders head offices are still open over the Christmas period and would still be organising if it can get titles before Christmas. From what we were told by Metricon even if it had settled by mid November building wouldnt have started until early February so I’m just hoping this won’t change by much. And I mean, at the end of the end I just keep telling myself, it will get finished in the end three more weeks isn’t gonna kill me (maybe) and no one would have started building prior to Christmas.
