Re: windows out of plumb by 5mm 10Jul 15, 2020 12:56 pm ECOECO How do you know they are out of plumb? Do sashes and panels operate freely? hi ECOECO, we measured them. we did that from the outside and inside window sills. so we measured right and left corners and middle, then we worked out the differences. at this stage, we don't have a chance to close and open all windows, but we noticed that the track sills for the panels to open and close is pretty dirty. so I think I will have to check them at my PCI walk after they cleaned the windows. Re: windows out of plumb by 5mm 11Jul 15, 2020 1:04 pm Inspection should be well before PCI. If major defects are found you can dispute practical completion has been reached. Any defects identified at PCI should just be cosmetic items like paint blemishes and can be fixed quickly later before handover. Things you can see for yourself. I used Houspect. Their report was detailed. I accompanied them on the inspection and ensured as much as possible was checked. I learnt from the inspector and the NSDFT guide, then spent time onsite later carefully inspecting everything. Missed one small window not square, however!

Probably still worthwhile asking for a transfer later to assist others who later search the Windows & Doors sub forum looking for a topic of importance to them.
