Anyone who has had handover recently or will be having handover. Are the data points projector pre-wire & intercom pre-wire connections done before handover what about heating and cooling was it connected before handover? Window looks great Tinker! Good luck for Monday. Thanks backpocket I love it. Can't wait to see yours.

Anyone who has had handover recently or will be having handover. Are the data points projector pre-wire & intercom pre-wire connections done before handover what about heating and cooling was it connected before handover? Hi Tinker Just checked out your blog, it is all looking amazing. The tiling looks fabulous, a great job. Re what happens at handover - we were contacted by the heating/cooling people for them to come on the day of handover, they gave a 3 hour window. As I had to head to PD office to collect keys, I didn't know what time I would be back, so I actually got them to come the next business day. I found this better as then I was definitely home and they could show me how it all works. The Hot water service, dishwasher and stove were all installed whilst we were doing final walk through. We don't have projector pre-wire or intercom, we only had the TV on the wall points - these were all done before handover. Good luck for Monday, am sure there will be some action at your house over the weekend. Great to see your driveway also. Thanks mummaDJ . Do you the hot water service etc were installed on the day of the handover? Love the recess TV points we just have normal plug points although we did requested ones for wall mount. checked with our SS he said to check with the guys who come to set up the intercom they will do it. Let's see. Ya hopes so. The stain in the front door doesn't match the frame as they are two kinds of wood. Not happy about it. Wonder wether its normal. Re: Porter Davis homes 8638Nov 30, 2013 12:37 am Has anyone selected chestnut as the garage door colour? If so would love to see pictures. Our garage door looks much darker than the sample we were shown at colour appointment. Might have to drop in to check. Phase anyone had any issue with the front entry door stain colour not matching the front entry frame. We are told its cause the different timber stains differently. I was hoping the door and frame would look the same. Re: Porter Davis homes 8639Nov 30, 2013 7:52 am tinker MummaDJ tinker Backpocket I have updated the blog with picture of the window check it out.

Hi Tinker Yes, hot water service etc is all installed on handover day. This is so no one steals them with a builders key. They should be installed first thing in the morning so you can see them. The recess TV points for wall mount TV is how they came - it is listed on our Electrical Selection list as: "Wall mounted TV pre-wiring ($367) - Pre-wire only for future wall mounted TV (inc HDMI, RG6 coaxial link, flush mount wall box inc GPO) cables to run from nominated TV location to nominated home theatre system equipment location (max 3m of cable)." So suggest you check your electrical proposal from Argus that you signed and check what it says. Re: Porter Davis homes 8640Nov 30, 2013 9:46 am Back Pocket No I am not telling you that. I am telling you standard depends a lot on the colour of brickies sand they use and "standard" means they use whatever colour sand is delivered. "Standard" is not a colour of itself. BTW I am not attacking you, just trying to assist with an explanation. I understand what your saying and explaining however your explanation tends to get PD of the hook scott free without any care or concern for the customer. point 1 - you say "standard" is not a colour.. I do understand that point however at hopetaun its PD that depict "standard" as a colour. It is clearly marked Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ Mortar Finish: Ironed "colour" natural - "standard" Sample Brick: Boral - Brushwood My contract states "standard" which I picked from the board above. If PD are depicting the above colour as "standard" and customers are picking "standard" based on what PD are depicting as "standard" then this is the "standard" colour that should be used not "grey" Three options 1 Ask the liquidator 2 Find another PD customer and ask the source of their report 3 Pay for new report 3 12181 Ask for references and speak to them.
