What are the issues? Would be great to know what actually is wrong? Mel Re: Porter Davis homes 2498Jun 23, 2011 11:57 pm I've posted a number of things in this thread, in one of the other PD threads and in various threads I have started. I just don't have it in me to type it all out again or go looking so that I can link the posts, but the forum might have a search function whereby you can view all of my posts directly, rather than trawling through the forums for them. I just can't do it now I'm sorry, I'm down to my last single shred of patience and can't face it right now Re: Porter Davis homes 2499Jun 24, 2011 12:21 am Jewelbaby, I understand what you are going through. We also felt like this and really disapointed with our PD experience. We were moved in believing all faults had been rectified only to find more and more faults every day. We have our 3 mths inspection tomorrow and I have pages of lists. Will report back and let you all know how its going Re: Porter Davis homes 2500Jun 24, 2011 2:26 pm Sorry, it's builder bashing time.....(Though I would call it CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM)...............Come on PD GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER . Reading a couple of posts (Jewelbaby's and Lunchtime's) and I know there are many more. It's not acceptable. If it wasn't for people choosing to build with you, PD would not exist as a company. People have paid good money to build their homes with PD and they expect higher standards in building and customer service than what they're getting. Remember, they've hired you to build for them so you actually work for them. People are building HOMES not a HOUSE. For some it's been a great process with minimal complaints, but for others you are destroying their hopes and dreams. All this comes from the top (Management). If the workers can get away with it and cut corners, they will and PD the company will be the ones getting the bad name in the long term. Hence people will stop building with you and you'll be out of business. For me to date PD have been good and looked after us but we haven't began building as yet. Is this where the nightmare begins; after you sign the contract. PD's words from their blog: Four times Australia’s Most Professional BuilderPorter Davis - May 13, 2011 We’re excited to announce that today we were awarded the building industry’s peak national award for professional building by the Housing Industry Association (HIA). It’s not the first time we’ve won the title of Australia’s Most Professional Builder, in fact we’ve managed to win the title four times now and eight consecutive years in Victoria! The benefit to you is that you know how absolutely committed we are to building the best quality homes matched with award winning service.
