Our contract says 30 weeks and obviously all the * star points for rain etc.
I saw last week nothing happening on site, even with good weather and everything.( I know sometimes tradies resources pay key role)
I have a feeling that by November end we may be very near completion but not at it. And because December brings holidays, we would be delayed till Feb.
How to put this across to SS that a few decisions on his end could save us big troubles and long waiting.
Also any idea normally what does Wisdom pays back for delay?
You are on schedule for completion within your contract date. Our bricks were completed 11 weeks after the slab was poured, and PCI at 29 weeks, so we didn’t need to account for weather delays. If you do go over contract it would have to be by 2 or 3 months at least before you start getting paid liquidated damages (because of what W can claim for adverse weather). I’d be very surprised if your build continued beyond Xmas but you never know.
If you don’t know what W pays it means you didn’t negotiate this clause in your contract, so it will be $15 per day.
Are you building a double storey? If so last week they may have been fiddling around with scaffolding, we had a few weeks where that was the only thing that happened, and/or brick cleaning.
We are in week 19 from Contract (site excavation in week of 19th March, slab on 28th March). Ours is a 30 week contract, which takes us to mid October. Despite that, SS advised a target PCI date of Second week of December.
I also noticed several weeks of no action, but there were some days when I saw quite a bit of movement. Yes, I still agree it is slow, but as MandM+4 said, adjusting of scaffolding and bricks cleaning in itself is a very slow process. I am really hoping that things will be faster once they start with internals, and we can get PCI in Oct end/Early November.
