Can't wait to see pictures of your beautiful new home and garden next weel How long did it take between fixing and PCI?? Thanks It's a bit hard to say because we had the christmas break thrown in. I got my fixing invoice on 11/12/11. So probably 5-6 weeks? Seems to be more the administrative side of things (inspections etc.) that make it feel like it takes a long time. But either way, the time still flies! Re: Porter Davis homes 4612Feb 20, 2012 9:20 pm cattycatcat Just received my Fixing invoice! Congrats CC, received mine today too... They're totally flying now... Bring on the key ceremony in a few weeks... Mikey Porter Davis homes 4613Feb 20, 2012 10:39 pm Congrats Mikey! Now I'm just waiting for a call for either my SS or my BC to let me know... They used to call before I received a bill :O lol.

We saved nearly $800 today, garden edging and front yard retaining bricks we were quoted nearly $1000 for them, we got them delivered for $192. Exactly the same product. Thanks for the suggestion Humble! It might be worthwhile to add that last year we signed Melbourne Brick to our customer club, PD Rewards. Melbourne Brick provides pavers and retaining walls at a discounted price to PD customers. You can order pavers and retaining walls online at http://www.melbournebrick.com.au and by being a PD customer you receive 10% off and free delivery Cheers, Ebony. Porter Davis Homes Questions?

It was a pretty cruisy affair really, only had some minor issues, all of which we already knew about and all of which we are assured will be fixed Our SS has been wonderful! Handover next monday!!! And then it all happens, i've organised floors and blinds to go in that week so we will be moving the week after into a pretty much finished home! We're told our driveway is being done this week, with landscaping to be done next week after handover, couldn't be happier with the fact that I'll have a fully landscaped front yard prior to actually moving in! Our PD experience has been a very happy one for the most part, except for a few administrative flaws, we're very happy to have made the decision to build PD! Good luck to everyone else's build! Hi trudyx, That's fantastic news! So glad to hear that you're happy with your decision to build with PD and excited that your house is one step closer to being a home Cheers, Ebony.

Bricks are almost done, just little bits under the windows and doors left to do now. Roof done, doors in, windows in, electrical, plumbing, data, heating and cooling in. Plaster and cornices in. I was impressed to see the plasterers working Saturday and Sunday to get it done! Not bad for week 7! I'd expect lockup invoice to arrive soon, the last bits of the bricking has taken a while compared to the rest of the work, but I'm not complaining! I'm off to Sydney for a week for work, so I'll miss my daily visits, but hopefully I'll come back to some big changes! Re: Porter Davis homes 4617Feb 21, 2012 10:48 pm We had our PCI on Friday arvo and there's a long list of defects with a couple of a big ones - PCI Issues The annoying bit is that the SS was supposed to call me on Monday to organise a time for meeting and signing off the list of issues, but he hasn't called me yet. Today I got a email response from him that he'll call me today and that he's got everything booked in. But to my surprise he didn't call.. And how can he fix issues without even a sign-off or agreeing on a fix ! Re: Porter Davis homes 4618Feb 22, 2012 8:02 am Has anyone added caesarstone to the laundry benches after handover? Any recommendations for doing this? Re: Porter Davis homes 4619Feb 22, 2012 10:25 am Wateman Update on our build.. Bricks are almost done, just little bits under the windows and doors left to do now.

I’m sure that there will be quite a few good changes when you return from Sydney. Keep the updates coming Cheers, Ebony. Porter Davis Homes Questions?
