PCI

We had the official PCI on Friday. Still quite a few things to be completed but they are definitely working hard (for once).
Here are some tips for a PCI:

1. Take a few people along: I took my parents along, partly for an extra set of eyes (we all look for different things) and partly to help distract the Site Supervisor so that my partner and I could really look at things or privately discuss things whennecessary. You could see our Site Supervisor trying to keep an eye on us all and struggling. He tried to palm off quite a few things but its hard to tell multiple people they are wrong!

2. Take your plans along: I am sure good Site Supervisors take copies but take yours in case they don't and to make sure you can easily check anything you want.

3. Check everything! Even if the supervisor says it is not necessary do it anyway. Question all the things you find, even tiny marks etc.

4. Take your own notes: Write everything you find down and compare it to the list the Site Supervisor writes down. You don't want them to miss something (accidental or otherwise).

Hopefully we get to move in this weekend. The bank, however, may hold us up. They say it takes 2-7 days for the inspector to come out and then for the payment to be arranged. We lodged the claim with 6 days to go. If we had done it any earlier the house probably would have failed the inspection.

Carpets were also successfully installed and the Site Supervisor also came through on fixing the Power Point trip hazard in the floor. It is now a pop up one that sits flush with the floor. YAH!

Cross your fingers for us!!

Entertainment room with sunken day bed. You can just make out the power point towards the bottom left of the screen. The carpet looks funny because it needs a vacuum.

My bath spout is in.Not the best ever but at least it's in the middle of the bath. 

Balcony tiling is done. Not a huge fan of the tiles but because it was for outside and had to be non slip there wasn't much of a selection. 

Kids bathroom lookds very posh, this picture does not do it justice.
