So its been a while since I've posted anything so I thought I'd do an update.
Firstly we are about 2 weeks behind & should've been in the house...grrrr!
The main reason for this is we got broken into at the start of June & the lowlifes stole all power points, light switches & exhaust fans & smashed a double glazed window. They couldn't get certificate of occupancy till window was fixed. The window got fixed last Monday but there are a lot of issues that have to still be rectified & should've been picked up by now by our SS.

We had an unofficial NHP to get ahead & fix all issues a few weeks back but with the power cut due to the break in I think it was pointless as you couldn't see anything. So last Friday24th we had our official NHP & we picked up a lot of stuff, one of our biggest challenges is the render...it keeps bubbling & falling off.

They will not handover till all we stated on Friday is fixed, I asked can't we have handover & those things get fixed when we move in? they said it's their policy to get all the defects fixed. I think it's so wrong. This means we still wont be in our house till start of July now.
I am getting very stressed as its so close to us settling our current home & I stressed this to them but they really don't care that you could be living on the street.
Our SS said well that's why we don't give a date, well I already allowed 4 weeks extra for issues & they did say mid June at the latest if not earlier.

A lot of painting needs to be fixed especially after they refitted the correct splash back.
We spotted the powder room door has a chip in the glass so who knows how long that will take... the list goes on.

We have another NHP this Thurs so we'll see where we are at Our SS said 95% of the issues will be done.
But it is looking good & I'm happy with all the colours we chose. I will just be glad when this is all over.
We are also still waiting on spa approvals & permits.
