Site inspection,

I have a bit of a catch up to do….......Hmmm where were we?

I met SS out on site today to go through our list of concerns. We also had a manager join us who inspects the projects. At first I wondered if it was going to be a gang up but instead I left feeling they were taking our concerns very seriously and they both took the time to address each item on our list.

We have decided to hold off on getting our own inspector to give them a chance to get the job done to our satisfaction.

To be fixed…..

• The lintel at the garage was not bowed, there were three faulty bricks that made the lintel appear bowed.
• I was still not convinced that the insulation was behind certain walls and SS punched a screw driver through the wall and said “Yep she’s right they need to come back and do it again!” They will now have to cut holes into the plaster and put the insulation in where it was missing.
• The bricklaying at the master bedroom window frame above the bed is still NQR. The expansion joint appears bowed. The window has now been installed and the edge bricks can now be laid.
• Fascia at study above portico not straight the bracket is too short and is pulling the fascia off the gutter.
• Garage brickwork not completed due to incorrect steal beam. Lintel is now on site should be done on Monday.
• Electrical cable pulled out in the wrong spot on alfresco pillars
• The alfresco frame is not square but within tolerance, SS said when the caulk it at the end it will all look straight.
• There is damage to one brick and the mortar at the alfresco to be fixed.

Fixed

• They fix the pipe sticking out of the master bedroom wall at the power box.
• Front facade at portico is now square.
• Toilet window is now only slightly out with the architrave installed.
• Broken roof tiles in family room and alfresco now all replaced.
• Gaps at widow frames mostly fixed with windows now in place.

Gets fixed before hand over:

• Garage door frame bowed
• Garage door hinges do not match.
• Barrel for alfresco door to be replaced
