Building Aurora Q2 with Plantation Homes: Counting down 7 days to handover :))

It is an official counting down 7 days until the day we receive our keys to our new lovely home. It has been such a journey from the day we first met Plantation Homes in February 2013. Mostly are on the good sides, no major problem with Plantation Homes. Happy overall, just can not wait to hold the keys in our hands!

Early this morning we had another quick site visit with Andy as he would like check with us with the kitchen island cabinet and the light point at Master Suite WIR that we mentioned. So the cabinet maker has fixed the island cabinet height by cutting from the bottom (instead of re making a whole new cabinet) and it looks MUCH better having it at very similar height to the rear bench (approx 20mm difference). On the other hand, while we were at the kitchen we saw the glass splash back has been installed but guess what? It's NOT the same colour as the sample we got from Cosham Studio!! We showed Andy the sample piece which has the colour sticker name 'Russian Toffee Sparkle' and our colour selection document actually says 'Russian Toffee Mirror Flake'. So Andy is going to investigate and get back to us. He said if this an error they need to break the whole glass splash back and order new splash back which could take up to 10 days. Oh my my.

Issues aside, Stegbar has installed our shower screens, towel rails, vanity basins, mixers, shelves, door handles and removed the clear frosted sticker thing on the windows. Now you can actually see inside of the house from outside clearly. While we were on site, the fly screen man came to install the fly screens so I guess not much left to be done.

Pretty much we are at 98% completion. Next Monday we will meet with Andy again and the painter to go through the touch up. This is where we need to carefully inspect every corner of the walls and tell the painter where to touch up.
