framing started

d

went to our block today.. they have started our framing... thought alot more would have been done. but anyway its a start.

It seems that PD have fixed up the damage on the alfresco slab as couldnt spot it.

Can anyone who reads this post have a look at part of the framing it looks like they have used damage wood.. tell me what you think please . I dont think it looks normal.

the alfresco car park

Im not very happy .Went to our block tonight hoping to see some start on the framing.. there was none:( Why give you a date for a framing start and nothings done.)

Second gripe for the night some @#%^& tradesman is driveing up onto my newly laid Alfresco slab and parking what looks like a large car. how do i know !!!!this lots of tyre marks and some nice damage to the slab grrrrrrrrrrrrr . you see they cant get around the front of the block because of the building materials arew in the way.. so they drive around the back of the block. I cant see why they need to park on the slab when theres plenty of room on the land behind me.

Anyway i have sent a email to PD telling them im not happy .

One good thing the windows have been delivered.

kev from new homes

I contacted kevin from new homes . we are going to get him to inspect the building of the house. interestingly he said that for single story house like ours he dosent inspect them at the frame stage but preplaster before the bricks go on. So he said when we see the tiles go on and bricks starting. ring him and he will come down. Also said the quality inspectors that the builders have mostly they are ex tafe teachers. and once the builders know he is coming they get the best tradies on to build the house,, Asked him about the painters as some people have been complaining about the quality of their paint jobs again there been a shortage of good painters up till now and hopefully the situation going to improve.. sounds like he knows what he is talking about.

we have a slab

As mentioned on the forum we have a slab:)) it is massive went to the block tonight hoping to see some progress and was nice to see our house slab. wished we had seen it poured but couldnt. looks like it was done yest or today.

our scrape

yeh We have finally started down the building road, six long months we have waited for PD to start and the day has finally arrived. We had a site scrape today and the dunny and rubbish cage was delivered. I noticed though it seems that if you build prestige the dunny is quite superior to the ones delivered at the lifestyle houses. Thought u needed to know that lol. wonder if the tradies are envious.

site superviser

Had a call from our Site Supervisor lenny who will be looking after the construction of our home. Site scrape is tomorrow Nov 20th and plumbing ect should be laid thereafter. Then our slab will be poured NOV 27 and the framers are booked for Dec 4th. Cross fingers it all happens on time.
