Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 25 - PCI in 3 days 468Feb 09, 2016 12:59 pm I'll just cut and paste what I wrote in the Facebook group but I'll put a more detailed reply once I get the report back 'Ok folks - PCI results! It's not good!!! Michael from Henley was actually great. Agreed with all the things we pointed out and pointed out more, he noted everything we said. Chris our Darbecca guy was great too. Looked at everything and was super thorough. Now for the bad. A lot of things to be fixed. Even Michael said this won't be done in the two weeks. Lots of re bricking to do. Under all the windows. Both sides of the garage front. It's bowed under the ensuite window. Our main long hallway has to be totally re plastered and painted. It can be packed out to make it square but the rooms on the other side will still be out which are bedrooms and bathroom. Which won't be too noticeable as they are carpet and tiles. He said the hall way is shocking and not even close to acceptable. A concreter needs to come in with a laser level and do all our floors. The slab is out all over with highs and lows. All our bench tops are not level and the kitchen is badly leveled due to the floor. The ensuite shower is bowed and the wall in our master bed is out. The ceiling needs to be re plastered level as its out. And this is just the stuff we spoke about. The report will come through later today or tomorrow. And they don't have the certificate of occupancy as the termite treatment is not finished. Amongst other things. At the end of the day we left happy as Michel is pretty confident it will all get fixed. It will just take a while' Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 25 - PCI in 3 days 469Feb 09, 2016 8:51 pm Inspection report came through. 32 pages. No end in sight for this build Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 25 - PCI in 3 days 470Feb 09, 2016 8:54 pm Oh man I feel horroble for you. I hope this Michael fella wasnt just telling you what you wanted to hear. All the best and good luck I hope you get your place soon Our build - MainVue Amalfi 428 - https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=75482 Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 471Feb 09, 2016 9:30 pm Oh Jessica , this has all been so unfair for you..... I hope your happy ending is not too far away. Was the 32 page report Henleys or Darbeccas? Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 472Feb 09, 2016 9:32 pm And very odd that later today we got the COO??? Even though termite treatment Isn't complete and other things. Not sure how this got approved. I'll be sending the report to SS tomorrow Not expecting a reply though as in 26 weeks we are still struggling in the communication department with SS Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 473Feb 09, 2016 9:58 pm What a disaster! I hope they can rectify things for you. How can the SS & Henley let such poor workmanship happen? KDR Under the Flight Path - Dennis Family Homes (Hawkesdale) Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 474Feb 10, 2016 10:49 am That's a very good question. If Henley do an inspection before the invoice is generated I would Like to know who thought the slab level and framing was acceptable?? They kept telling us we didn't need our own inspector as Henely have their own. Obviously we do need our own as theirs don't pick anything up. If this was picked up at framing stage all this could have been avoided now. Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 475Feb 10, 2016 11:22 am Such an incompetent SS it is outrageous. I really hope he is stood down because this isnt fair to you and everyone else he builds for. Does the customer excellence girl from call you after each stage? What do you say?

I would be so upset - I really hope they pull their fingers out and work their asses off until it is all fixed. I can't believe how much has gone wrong for you. My husband was skeptical about getting independent inspections on each stage. Having read so many stories on Home One, I have put my foot down and told him how many problems I have read about, and your story has made my so glad that we are doing this. Again, I hope that they get it fixed asap for you. My blog: tashandpaul.wordpress.com Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 477Feb 10, 2016 12:01 pm Yes I wish we got an inspection at every stage now. I havnt had my feedback call from customer service girl yet. The last one was about 16 weeks ago. I can't wait to get it! Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 478Feb 10, 2016 1:14 pm So the person who came out for PCI was from Henley? But not your SS? Is Darbecca an independent inspector? Re: H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 479Feb 10, 2016 1:28 pm Sorry for jumping into your thread Jessica, but I'm wondering if anyone out there knows if Henley and MainVue use the same site supervisors??? H3nl3y KDR Mont3r3y belle q2 week 26 - PCI done 480Feb 10, 2016 2:06 pm Yes they do. There is a Facebook group and someone building with mainvue has the same ss as me. The people at our PCI were the Henley handover supervisor and our independent inspector from Darbecca. Now I believe it goes back to our SS to 'fix' it all. We were lucky in that our old house was so small (86 square metres) compared to the new house, they were able to take enough readings around the old backyard house before… 8 36901 The biggest challenge will be if you take out a loan and then run out of money - you'll have an incomplete security and lenders do not like this so you can get stuck.… 2 18894 Hi, I am looking into doing a KDR in Melbourne and am contemplating using Kialla Homes. I am looking for feedback on them from others who have built with them. 0 13301 |
