Lead up to Handover

Looks like most things are on schedule post-PCI and pre-settlement, fingers crossed!

Post-PCI fixes completed last week include:
  • Porch tiling completed (underneath the door)
  • Problematic bricks and mortar have been rectified
  • Maintenance have fixed door jams and cleaned them; fixed silicon in main bathroom
  • Letterbox has been rebuilt
Schedule for the week include:
  • Monday/Tuesday: plumber to realign toilet seats and install missing main bath faucet
  • Tuesday/Wednesday: bricks recleaned; painting to commence
  • Thursday: house to be recleaned
  • Friday morning: second PCI/QA inspection
  • Friday afternoon: settlement at head office
A couple of things that have not been mentioned are when the scratched windows are going to be replaced, and also when the storm water pipe is going to be connected properly. Until the pipe is connected, we will not be able to get a drainage certificate and this will delay us receiving our interim occupancy certificate!

This afternoon I rang the bank to ask how our final progress payment application is going, and it's been done and our final cheque has already been authorised so we're ready to go!

I hope this week at least can go smoothly for us! Next week we'll be off from work to take our time to settle in to our first home together.

I've posted some pics from the weekend - smurf madness!

Both window panes to be replaced

Letterbox - they got the height wrong the second time, but oh well

Looks like the brickies broke one of our storm water drains

More mortar fixed
