We've finally won another battle!

Hi All,

For those who have been following our build since day 1 you would remember this post. Click here.

We have been in discussions with the builder since slab stage where we believed a retaining wall and AGI was required to the front RHS of the house due to them dropping the house level by 200 mm from our contract to construction drawings without our written authorisation or any notice for that matter.

After multiple emails, on-site meetings and with the required muscle from our independent we finally managed to get the builder to install a retaining wall to the front of the house with an AGI drain behind it.

Originally, the wall was only planned to go on the boundary but for some reason they installed it to the front of the block too. To be honest, we couldn't be happier with the result. Even though we really didn't want a retaining wall to the front of the house, we're just glad it's done.

Some photos I took today of the install. AGI pipes still not connected though.
