I thought I posted earlier but I think it may have timed out and my post is now missing. We have had our fence and portaloo go on site on Saturday and the site appears to be excavated/scraped. I presume next step is piering, any idea how long it usually takes for this to take place? ASJ1981 We seem so close together in our smtimeframe, the forecast doesn’t look good for mid week so I’m assuming not until next week? We haven’t filled in the paperwork for the external inspector yet but they want to know when the slab will be poured, should I just say TBA? I’m assuming nobody can actually tell me a date yet. Depends on the SS as to when they contact you. There is usually a handover/briefing between CSR and SS first and that may not happen until slab is poured. Depends how quick it happens. Mine called me before excavation. Weather isn’t looking too flash this week. My site has been empty the last 3 weeks waiting on bricklayers. They are meant to start tomorrow so hoping the rain is just afternoon showers In regards to slab just say TBA. I didn’t have to give any notice when slab and frames were done. I emailed them and they booked the inspections in very quickly Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14194Feb 18, 2019 10:25 pm Manhattan52 becks81 I’m confused, my CSR said that WH are in charge until the slab is poured, then they will allocate an SS from that point forward.

If there are issues, like levels or even anything more substantial, will it be a major job to correct?

They will organise Any issues your slab can be fixed. After slub is external plumbing and services like electricity, gas etc Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14197Feb 19, 2019 6:22 am ASJ1981 Is Piering and Wafflepods done on the same day? No I’m not aware that they are The concrete in the piers need to dry Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14198Feb 19, 2019 6:27 am Manhattan52 ASJ1981 Is Piering and Wafflepods done on the same day? No I’m not aware that they are The concrete in the piers need to dry Thank you! Our Piering is scheduled for tomorrow (Wednesday) as per SS phone call yesterday. There is afternoon storms the following day (Thursday). So I'm guessing wafflepods won't be done till early/mid next week. Which means slab around the last week of Feb or first week of March. I shouldn't get too impatient I guess, haha! Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14199Feb 19, 2019 12:19 pm ASJ1981 Manhattan52 ASJ1981 Is Piering and Wafflepods done on the same day?

I think you will have a slab late next week Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14200Feb 19, 2019 12:46 pm Manhattan52 The waffle pods should only take 2 days I think. Depends on size and then pour the slab day after. I think you will have a slab late next week Thank you manhattan52. I really do hope so! I was a little off when SS called yesterday and all i really heard was piering this Wednesday, wafflepods a few days later then slab after that. It's abit of a trip from our current place to the land so sometimes it's been a waste of petrol going there and then see no progress. Excavation was almost 2 weeks ago. Wonder what's happening to the online portal that Wisdom was going to release? Can someone please offer some advice? Im DESPERATE. Because I'm completely and utterly exhausted.
