I think cat 4 would be around 10k. Thanks Rups...this I'm assuming is for "Traditional Cat 4" roof tiles. I have been asking these questions as we have a new BC, who is yet to contact us, Its more than 3 weeks and no call as yet, I might have to introduce myself. Hi J & C, I’m sorry to hear your new BC hasn’t been in contact with you yet, or hasn't been able to answer these questions for you. If you would like me to follow this up on your behalf please send me a private message with your full name, lot address and contact number. Regards, Ebony Thanks Ebony, we 2-3 weeks before our titles are in, I will send you our the details if she does not get in touch with us by then. Our BC informed us that she is new to the organisation so might need some time to get acclimatised. Re: Porter Davis homes 4954Mar 27, 2012 12:22 pm Wateman What would be the average length of time to get to PCI once fixing is complete? I know most of you are building/have built big houses, and ours is only small, but I was just curious. Ours seems to be flying along so far, we will be at week 9 next Wednesday and fixing was complete last Wednesday (29th). I have a similar question about the fixing stage. How long did it take for most peoples fixing stage to be complete. (i.e. from Lockup to fixing) My build was at Lockup in week 14. It is now week 30 and my fixing stage is still not complete. So that is 14 weeks to Lockup and 16 weeks in fixing stage and still the fixing stage is not complete. The fixing stage has gone for longer than all previous stages combined. From this I can only ascertain 1 to 3 things (one or all 3 must be true) 1. My Lockup invoice was given out to early. 2. There is something badly wrong with my build that is holding up fixing that I have not been told about. 3. PD no longer cares about my build. (4. Somehow my house has been confused with someone who is building on the moon and not in the SE suburbs of Melbourne - ah-la the lack of tradesmen working on my build) Re: Porter Davis homes 4955Mar 27, 2012 12:33 pm Zinner Wateman What would be the average length of time to get to PCI once fixing is complete?

They said they would contact us to meet them on site to verify they are the correct tiles and to go voer any specific deisgns we want with our tiles- i.e strip in shower and behind the sinks. We are hoping to be in our place in 4 weeks....
