Well this is finally it, 3 more sleeps now before I get my keys and the work for us truly begins.
I can't honestly say I was impressed or happy with the PC inspection. I feel like my SS rushed the process and could not get out of there quick enough. Much like he has been for the whole build really. When Darren asked him a question about tolerances he didn't want to (or couldn't) answer again we got to see how poor his people skills are and once again things got quite heated. I haven't seen anyone get to Darren in the same way our SS does its been that way since they first met. I introduced SS to hubby and told him hubby was an electrician, SS said "just what I need another bloody expert" it didn't go down well on the day and nothing has improved there since.
The customer service from our sales staff, liason officer and colour consultants has been exceptional its a shame 1 person can sour an experience so much.
There were no major issues inside heaps of little fix ups but MJH (SS or his supervisor) had already picked up most of them. There were still the bricks of course and since then they have come back and attempted to fix at least some of the issues. I'm not convinced that they have fixed them and I do know I still have gaps both above and below some of my windows. I am living in hope that they are coming back to fix that too but hubby is not convinced.
On a brighter note SS did have one good suggestion that I am grateful for, the driveway parchem coating can be done later, which means we can do our landscaping out the front while we are on leave and won't damage the coatings.
Enough of the things that don't make me happy I need to pick up my mood, There are a couple of company's that have bent over backwards for me this week and deserve a big THANK YOU for their assistance, support and patience. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for shutters & flooring, in all honestly they might deserve a medal.
Sandra from Decorug @ penrith, thanks heaps for bending over backwards to get my shutters organised, I can't wait to come in and pick up some new rugs once we are settled and I am thrilled that the shutters will be installed before we actually move in. Great Job I'll post some photo's on Friday once they are done.

Tony from Choices Blacktown, you guys have managed to make the flooring process easy for us, even with our (regular) changes. I can't wait to see our bamboo on the floor.

Our Tiler Paul, not sure how we could get this all done without you. I wish there was a link for you but just a small one man band from what I can gather. Comes highly recommended
Sorry its all words this week. I promise to make up with photo's from now on and leave the ranting alone.
