Cheers, Ebony Hi Ebony, Any chance you could help me (hopefully) one last time? We have a couple of outstanding issues and are no longer getting any help from my BC or SS. The lock on our rear garage door does not fit our key at all. The lock is completely different to the rest of the house. My SS has known about this for a couple of weeks now but I havent heard one word of response about it. Also the phone set up in our smart wiring box is not comparable for our estate, so while we have Internet, our phone plugs are useless. Our SS has known about this for a month now. I have tried being patient and polite but with no real responses helping in any way I am beginning to get very frustrated!

Good Luck City West water issued me a new bill.. they 'guessed' didnt read the metre, guess what they did.. put the last bills usage on.. so now I have a $1000 water bill, and still no cheque from PD to pay the first one. If your building with PD, MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS DONE BEFORE YOU HAND OVER Re: Porter Davis homes 5536Jun 05, 2012 10:52 am Nicole1983 Which one is structurally more superior than another,Bulkhead above the kitchen cupboards is MDF or Plaster boards (frame) ? Hi Nicole1983, This is a great question, if you don’t get any answers from the community here on the forum, please be sure to touch base with your BC or SS, I’m sure they’ll be happy to help you.

I’m sorry to hear of your communications issues and getting in contact with your SS and BC about your repairs and can see how this would be frustrating for you. I have sent this onto the PD office to be followed up and I appreciate your patience during this time. Regards, Ebony Porter Davis Homes Questions?

Has anyone else encountered a similar issue, what action did the SS take to rectify it. There is also a lot of water clogged beside the slab due to the absence of drainage, Can this have an impact on the slab in the long term. Re: Porter Davis homes 5539Jun 05, 2012 11:49 am Humble, r they including the service charges in your accounts or just water? They used to send our service charges to us when we were building. They never charged us for water or sewerage on these accounts. But when we moved in they read the meter then. So we paid for the water from the start of build. I just got my account out and the first account we got after living in the house for two months as well as the build. Total water usage ninty one dollars!!!!! we have four living in our house lots of showers and I do at least eighteen loads of washing a week. Our latest account including all charges was $313.00!!!! something is wrong at your meter for sure. Re: Porter Davis homes 5540Jun 05, 2012 12:07 pm I know u said the Ombudsman cant help with water theft but they can help with a dispute over charges like that. There is obviously something wrong with the meter. Mayb it was faulty to begin with. Can they proove it was on zero when it was put in? U have a case because if it was based on "similar readings" for builds ect.... yours is way out. The water company will need to be able to say "that is an average reading for a build" I cant imagine water theft to that extent, unless a pool was filled. And now u have another account that also seems high. Go back to the ombudsman and say your disputing the charges. Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12320 Ask for references and speak to them. If they are defensive or try to avoid the request, walk. 1 74688 I would never build with Fowler homes. I built with them in 2021 and till date maintenance issues are pending.
