The reason I say this is the Gas service provider owns the meters, and they are the only ones that can install it. No one will buy this off anyone - unless the guys plans to hook up the meter on the sly - he would have to be in the industry to make that happen.

It seems to mostly be a mixture of tradies (stealing) or kids (vandalizing) and both are pathetic scum. Reading about how upset people are from having things Stolen from their new house, or even while they are building, I don’t know how people can be so heartless. Vandals are just as bad, the other day in an estate that my parents live in, I saw a new looking, but smashed concrete letter box sitting in the middle of a round about. No doubt kids on school holidays out late and found that funny, and even in our estate, I noticed a couple had driven down to visit a block I assume they had just bought (as I noticed a new ‘Sold’ sign on it) but the sign was covered in graffiti. Not a big deal really, but if I had just bought my first house/block of land, and went down to visit, take pictures etc and found the sign covered in crude graffiti I think it would leave me feeling a little sad and disappointed. I really hope karma does exist out there for these people. /end rant Re: Porter Davis homes 4460Feb 02, 2012 2:38 pm Will do Sammyjane31. Yes it sucks and I can't understand why they would want a gas meter, hot water unit I can understand, but a gas meter. Floorboard were finished being laid yesterday and carpet will go in tomorrow. I will take pics of house when carpets are done. NB: we decided to do flooring after handover as we found carpet that we liked that PD didn't have it at Hopetoun as a choice and in regards to the floorboards, we used the exact same type as Hopetoun (Unique Timber Floors) and we got it for $5K less than what PD were going to charge us. Pays to do your homework. Hope things are going well with you.
