Just wanted to ask a question regarding cavity for a fridge. Does anyone have these measurements: 960mm wide plaster to plaster and 700mm deep? If so, what fridge where you able to put there? Thanks Re: Porter Davis homes 5899Aug 15, 2012 3:42 pm Doreen_Kallara33 hi all. Just wanted to ask a question regarding cavity for a fridge. Does anyone have these measurements: 960mm wide plaster to plaster and 700mm deep? If so, what fridge where you able to put there? Thanks There should be quite a few, especially if height is not an issue (we got a complimentary overhead cupboard that we didn't even think about until the fridge didn't fit! lol my first true handy-man job was to move the cupboard up slightly). http://www.appliancesonline.com.au/side-by-side-fridges/filter/-943593658/ is very helpful sorting through fridges that will fit that link should take you directly to a page that only has fridges in that size range Re: Porter Davis homes 5900Aug 15, 2012 7:26 pm Our fixing stage has started, not sure who at PD is deciding to fit what they want without our consultation.
1. We asked for a single pane fixed window, paid for it but they have fixed a split pane fixed window, spoke to the BC after sending number of emails to the SS. The SS only say we will fix everything prior to handover (have been hearing this line all the time from day one) 2. I have also noticed that someone at PD has decided to choose our ensuite basins and no one has informed us of this change. 3. Many electrical points missing...do we get a credit for this or should we get them to put the points. 4. Water gets logged on besides our slab, sent photo's to the SS said he would fix the drains, I don't think this has been fixed as yet as water is still getting logged...This I believe is serious as I learned that this can cause the slab to heave. 5. Wrong heating unit (SS said he will ensure we get the upgraded model we paid for) 6. Cracks on bricks. 7. Garage and laundry doors painted wrong colour. 8. Floor tiles look different from the sample we bought...were offered the "different batch excuse" There are many more issues...has anyone else encountered similar issues (Zinner your issues are far bigger than ours). When we first selected PD we expected nothing less than quality but its far from what we are getting. I am only hoping at handover they walk the talk. 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.
