We were well past our contract period by the time we got to PCI, then out of the blue we received weeks of claimed delays. They might claim delays for this brick problem as being a 'supplier issue' even though it's their own incompetence with supervision that lets it get to this stage. Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 724Nov 22, 2016 10:31 am That sucks Doc. From what he has said as soon as we hit the 14th of Dec we go into damages.

Next tuesday our garage doors will come down and next weekend our bricks will be pulled down. Monday/tuesday the 5/6th the new bricks will be delivered and than bricking will start and be finished pre-christmas. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 728Nov 27, 2016 1:51 pm I'm pleased to hear that they will redo the bricks - hopefully a better solution than band-aiding the mortar. It's a shame that it won't be handed over until next year though. Yeah Kings have previously put in delay claims for our build (which we knocked back). Our manager said that he could have claimed 5 months of delays for the bricks, but he said that he won't. Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 729Nov 28, 2016 6:31 pm Yeah thats silly if they claimed for not having brickies organised. That's not a real problem just poor scheduling. The outsidelights and fiber have been disconnected so the pull apart has begun. Its strange to be happy to see things being pulled apart. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 731Nov 29, 2016 5:42 pm Garage doors and down pipe off today, now don't think much will change until the weekend when the bricks come down. Not sure about the eaves and window in fills. Our Build Thread - JG king Memphis Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 732Nov 30, 2016 12:11 pm Do you know how they will get the bricks down? Is it one by one or do they cut out big segments and carry it out? And do you get new bricks? Re: Our second home-JG King take 3 733Nov 30, 2016 1:29 pm Not sure how they pull the bricks down but am interested to see. Yes we get new bricks.

I'm surprised bu how little damage they did to the wrap.

Oh my gosh, your bricks, what a nightmare! I`m so shocked that they pulled them off and our going to re do them. Other than that everything else looks amazing! Love your crisp white kitchen with your floating floors. We are having floating floors too. Are you otherwise happy with everything else apart from the crumpets in the mortor?
