Re: How often do u talk to your SS (site supervisor) & for what? 12Sep 24, 2009 12:12 pm did someone say SS?? what SS ? who SS? We dont know who our SS is , although we are at plate-high. The builder we r building with has a policy of not giving SS number or any contact details. The only time We MAY (have to get appointment) see him is prior to lock-up.... So .....

I'll probably pay $$ directly to those guys since they'll be there with their equipment ... its usual practice really! --- I don't have a signature - just this sentence saying that I don't have one - that'll do! Re: How often do u talk to your SS (site supervisor) & for what? 14Sep 24, 2009 9:00 pm We met our SS on site on the day of site scrape... that was 2 weeks ago today... Said he would call every Wednesday to touch base.. and thus far he has. Hes made it very clear we should call him if we have any questions or concerns... even if we think they are stupid questions Other than that.. we still get follow up calls from our sales guy every week as well just to check we are ok - PJB seem to be very on the ball with communication! One of my favourite points about them. Other half met with sparky today.. organised to do data cabling, extra power points etc etc. Was provided his details by our SS - was no dramas. SS also put us in touch with an air con guy to get our split systems installed. Seemed all pretty standard for him lol We dont have a CS - dont seem to need one with the smaller builders I guess. Re: How often do u talk to your SS (site supervisor) & for what? 15Sep 24, 2009 9:05 pm We get a call from our SS once a week on the same day. We save all questions until then and if they can't wait we contact our CS. They are both great. www.themaxbuild.blogspot.com forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=20717&start=300 www.leahspaperpassion.blogspot.com Re: How often do u talk to your SS (site supervisor) & for what? 16Sep 24, 2009 9:14 pm Once a week or fortnight or so...

However, I've rang him twice to query some bad brickwork and misplaced powerpoints. He abruptly told me (in very colourful language) that I was not a builder and perhaps I should leave it to the experts to work out what's right and what's not right. Then he told me never to ring him on a Saturday again because it's his day off. So I'm never ringing him again Re: How often do u talk to your SS (site supervisor) & for what? 18Sep 25, 2009 7:35 am pharley I've been building for about 4.5 months, and I've never received a phone call from my SS.

As a business owner I know how stressful it can be for customers to expect you to be working 24 hours, 7 days a week.

As a business owner I know how stressful it can be for customers to expect you to be working 24 hours, 7 days a week. Yeah, that's a good point. I rang him on a Saturday because I'd left a few messages on his Voicemail during the week and didn't hear back. If I need to call him again, I'll try to do it only on weekdays so I don't upset him further. It's just so frustrating when they don't return calls 9 26041 In Victoria you cannot put a caveat on arising from a domestic building contract. 65 113416 Elvis has left the building...
