The issues I have are that I would need to take a day off (costing me a day of work) and if the fix isn't satisfactory I'd need to follow…

Our SS either doesn't listen or just completely ignores what I say.
On Thursday I hadn't heard back from him so I emailed asking if he'd heard back from his manager…

The Callaway Park estate in Sunshine West.

Thanks man.
It sucks about your fence but good thing they're replacing it. When we were getting our driveway done the bobcat driver backed into our garage and damaged a couple…

In hindsight we shouldn't have taken handover when all the issues weren't rectified. It's been 8 weeks since handover (23 March) and we're still on the same issue of the…

That's probably true but from what I understand the fix is just going to be the addition of a plate to cover the damage and that in itself doesn't look…

I spoke to the SS again and proposed being compensated for the damage (whatever the cost of the repair would be) rather than getting the repair. He said he'd speak…

The SS ended up calling me today and said he was at the property and took photos of the windows so it looks like area manager did chase it up…

I know we're in the right in. I just don't feel like it's worth the additional stress of having to deal with PD. The stress of building (and dealing with…

Yeah, I've got his name and number. I don't know if I want to waste any more time with PD. Just want them out of my life. I might just…

Ebony finally replied today.
They ended up getting the Area Manager of New Homes Maintenance to call me.
The Area Manager was quite understanding but said we pretty much shouldn't have signed…

Thanks for the advice d3vil_nik, I'll see how things go.
To be honest I'd be happy if they just compensated us slightly for the damage, especially since we had other windows…

If I don't hear anything by the end of thee week I'll do that.
Do you know what the best email address to get them on would be?

No word yet from PD, not even an acknowledgement. Posted on the PD thread and have sent two PMs to Ebony.

Ebony, can I get an update on this please?

We made the mistake of handing over before things were fixed which I regret. We were threatened with delay interest payments if we held handover up by our SS and…

I've now posted in the PD thread and sent Ebony a PM. Hopefully things can get moving along.

Thank you d3vil_nik and Ed for your responses on…

I'm hoping someone from PD can help as we're getting nowhere with our SS now the house has been handed over (on 23 March).
At handover it was noted that…

Thanks Ed.

Thanks for the replies guys. I'd be happy with a repair or even some compensation if left as is for that matter. I just want it over with. I don't…

Sorry, you are wrong... No point in building false hope. You are entitled to having it fixed. That's it... Any more is up to PD. Any less and you may…

It's been 5 weeks since handover and it doesn't look like our window frames are going to get properly repaired. Our Porter Davis SS has said he'll come and take…

After some more digging it looks like maybe we didn't pay for it as it isn't listed in the contract but it was in the colour selection document.

I wish I were so lucky.
PD are telling us there isn't a kickplate for our oven but I will call Technika to check.
I also saw your blog, nice house…

One thing is for sure though, I don't think we'll ever build again. The whole process was way too stressful. Would rather just buy a home that's already built …

We're not really fussed with not having it as it looks fine without one.

We moved into our Porter Davis home (Creswick 24) about a month ago and apart from a few things that needed attention we are fairly happy with it.
One of the…

The driveway is shared with the neighbour so we're limited there.
With how our front is there wouldn't enough room to park two cars in the driveway anyhow. We are however…

We'll be making the driveway a little wider.

Okay cool, if they can repair it I'd be very happy.
Thanks again for your comments Ed. They are very much appreciated.
