PCI Completed - Hand over delayed...

Today was our scheduled PCI date. We got up nice and early for an 8 AM start and went in with some Croissants :)

Getting on-site we were surprised to see that Darren from Darbecca and our SS were already on-site ready to go!

In general, all went quite smoothly. The SS was quite open to any issues we had and touch-ups that we wanted marked. He pretty much let us go nuts with the stickers... Don't ask how many we used!

Comments from our independent included: Great brick work, one of the best roof insulation jobs he has seen and unfortunately... a very average paint job. I agree with him on all points.

Pretty much 90% of our door and window architraves are showing the nails used to fix them and are so obvious in any light. Fortunately, PD have agreed to sand them all back and re-paint. 

Out of respect for our SS and PD I will not share the more serious items (only 2) raised by our independent. They have agreed to rectify them of course.

Finally, we only managed to snap up a few photos for family more than anything but will share below. The red dots are ours.

PCI getting close...Final touches

Hi all,

Our PCI is still going ahead on Tuesday and it's good to see that final works/touch ups are being completed.

Shower screens have been installed and remaining tiling/grouting items we're being completed as I was there.

Also, one of our neighbours at the back has a put a fence up. This was a bit of shock considering they signed the agreement for us to install it. We're not really fussed as the outcome will be the same and it's great to see how much backyard we actually have left.

Lastly, our Certificate of Occupancy (COO) inspection is booked in for today. Fingers crossed all goes well.

Cheers!

Sneak peek!

I decided to go have a quick look today over lunch. I was happy to see that all the external painting and front door staining was completed. As I was trying to look through the windows our Site Supervisor turned up and kindly let me walk through the house for a 'sneak peek' before our PCI. He spent some time with me discussing a few questions I had which I really appreciated. 

Happy to report that the bath tub issue is being rectified as we speak. Very impressed with our SS's reaction time to this. Didn't even get a chance to raise it as an issue. 

I didn't really get to go through room by room but in general I am pretty impressed with the quality of the house as it stands. PCI should be a breeze! I hope... 

Lastly, our temp fence is now gone so I managed to take some proper photos of the house. It's looking really good :)
