Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Porter Davis homes 16510Feb 27, 2018 7:05 am Dani_J Waldorf_Grange_Build Here’s the update from my SS re our defects: “Yes the cut was disappointing to say the least. I am meeting the plumbers Tuesday so they can complete the dig out and complete the Aggie drains as per my original request. They went to site last week and did not follow my instructions. Leave that with me. The Renderers have completed the re-coat Friday. They have two more items to complete from our inpections but are well on the way. The week ahead will see the front completed as best we can, Plasterers sanding the repairs Tuesday, Painters wed/Thurs, cabinet replacements in Monday, a few other minor cleaning items also will be complete. I would like to catch up with you on Friday to go through the items and tick off on completed. I am hoping we will be able to tick all of and arrange settlement times from there.” Have you seen the new render WGB? Are you happy with it? Hope so I haven’t seen it yet. We are in the process of preparing our old house to go to auction. The real estate agents taking photos this Thursday. So much to do we haven’t been able to afford the 40 min drive out to the new house. Eek. Meeting the site supervisor there Friday and fingers crossed. Also it gives it time to dry so we can analyse the colour. Re: Porter Davis homes 16512Feb 27, 2018 12:21 pm Just got a text message from AGL saying we have a gas bill to pay, who is meant to pay that? We haven’t had handover yet. I’ve emailed PD but they’ve ignored it. My husband usually deals with them but is too busy at work this week and it’s such a minor issue I want to sort it out myself. Thanks.

Thanks. Interested to see what they say. They are supposed to pay it. We got a water bill for our block, the usage was only around $11 so we just paid it. Since then there has been a leek from the tap at the front that’s been constant ( we have turned it off at the mains several times) I’ll be interested to see what the usage is on the next one as I won’t be paying it this time. I assume we are still liable to pay for the services and it’s just the usage they pay??

You’d think if they render all day long then they would know how batch and die lots work. Unbelievable. I hope they will redo the lot.

We haven’t paid gas or electricity during the build but now that we are close to handover it will be switched into our name.

Thanks. We haven’t paid gas or electricity during the build but now that we are close to handover it will be switched into our name. I thought we were supposed to be paying the first $50 per month of any bills for water, gas and electricity but after that PD had to cover the cost? I can't seem to find that in my documents though.

Now I will be the one delayed with my post handover work because of PDs contractors arrogance. Im sure the SS hasnt even seen it yet. Im also sure he will try to argue its ok.... see more at hoffmangoldwithporterdavis.wordpress.com Re: Porter Davis homes 16520Feb 27, 2018 5:30 pm Ok I’ll call them tomorrow. I feel so thankful my husband has been dealing with them as I can’t even get a simple email answered. Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 13346 Ask for references and speak to them.
