The day we've been waiting for!

After almost 8 months of waiting. 20 April 2011. We are the proud owners of a new M. Home!
A lot of the things in my mind.. perhaps Bunnings Warehouse will be pretty much my second home for the next few months.

Will post some photos soon...

Define PCI?

Can i ask you my fellow bloggers what PCI meant to you? Practical Completion Inspection or Presentation where the Builder will present your Home at its best, cleaned, finished,well presented...

Did i just say well presented?

How come when we went onsite... Found mud inside the house! dust like a snow, missing PC items and more touch ups! Do you call it Presentation or the bulder just want us to check all the inc works coz they couldnt be bothered checking it themselves?

This was the meant to be our Second inspection.... perhaps our handover on wednesday will be a third inspection? who knows...

Where does this end?

Perhaps checking someonelse building progress is more exciting than our own one.. nothing but frustration.

Only time will tell.

PCI Result - NOT MET!

As much as i wanted to update my blog, would love to post all the finish product but due to poor Supervision, improper workmanship, and non complaince with relevant standards, It has been marked as "House is incomplete"! or should i say failed.

Got an independent inspection and wouldnt even thought the the report will be about 25 pages. Didnt even want to open it in the first place.. anyways, to make the story short... Got about 60 defects/incomplete works including major isues like a water leak to the living room coming from the balcony, window glass cracked and more.. =(

Escalated this matter to the Manager.. and the next day.. three vans are working on site.. PCI has been moved next week. Not even sure if they will finish everything. finger's crossed. i wouldnt want to pick up any more to delay the handover. Hope everyone else building experience wouldnt be as bad as we had. Please stay tune...
