Driveway Photos

Driveway Pattern is Ashlar Slate - Colour is BlueStone

Only a 20-30mm stepdown from Front Portico to driveway.. this is good for the knees.

Final Stages - PCI inspection completed

Sorry i have not posted of late.  A lot of things have happened of late. We have completed the Practical Completion inspection. Unfortunately my independent inspector was not available, but he will do the 13 week inpection after handover... Anyhow he guided me through the list i had to check and i got some from the internet also.. fortunately my SS is also very good, he was well on top of things. First off he had already gone through the house marking all that he could pickup prior to our arrival. Then together with my mrs we started room by room. It was long and thorough, most of the issues are gyprock and painting splashes. over 100 blue stickers throughout... If your interested in what to check for PCI I will list in my next post..

The thing that impresses me is that all the items identified in my previous inspection by my independent inspector has been addressed and fixed..

Also today the driveway was finally completed - 1 week overdue but completed...

HANDOVER is on the Wednesday 20th April 2011.

Requested final payment from bank last week and only now they have processed request and booked inspection... I hope they get their act together as i need that cheque for hand over date...

Intereting note... All appliances are installed after settlement/handover.. apparently theft is an issue.. I can tell you now that our house alarm has been triggered a few times. Someone obviously has been our alfresco section. Make sure to visit your house often

updated photos soon..
