Day27 – is new problem coming up?

Well, back to work already, annual leave is just too short (2 ½ weeks), haha

Called SS yesterday again regarding the rangehood ducting, he said that the purchase order was sent to the installer however they ran into confusion (?????) so didn’t complete the job. He said that he will chase up again and will ask them to call me before or after they complete it

Well.. what confusion they can have? Such an excuse is not acceptable actually. On the other hand i am still waiting the mortar re-colouring warranty certificate to be sent to me, still chasing that up.. Other than that everything is good so far.
One thing come up 2 or 3 days ago, the house (only in the living area) is a bit noisy if there is strong wind outside.. I can clearly hear the wind noise blowing in the living area even the TV is on, not sure how i can describe it better. I originally thought that the noise is coming from the steel frame (my back neighbour is building steel frame), but i opened the sliding door last night, it was so quiet although it was windy, so i suspect that something is wrong in my house, but not sure what. My colleague suggested that there could be a hole or something not seal properly, so the wind come in (may be from the roof space) and not getting out…

Can anyone shed some light? I am not sure if need to call Simonds/SS for this, or i should wait till 3 months maintenance, i really don’t know what or where is wrong???

Day19 after handover

Basically i settled down in the new house, hubby is happy, but the bunny not.. have put into a great effort to make her happy

A lot of shopping in the last few days, Big W, Ikea, Myer..etc trying to slow down the cost, just don't want to go red on credit card.. haha

A plumber has put a note in my front door this morning, saying that he wanted to connect the solar panel for me but i was not home, why didn't he call me before he comes? now i have to call the office and book an appointment. But it is good that i don't need to chase Simonds for this.. I did shoot SS & CSR an email on Friday about this and i was also thinking to call them this morning, but look like it is on track now. So now, only the rangehood ducting is pending..

So far so good, everything is working well in the house (except i haven't figured out the washing machine issue yet) and i love the new house.. enjoy it very much, just a pity that there is no TV/Internet/phone, hope that i will get the fabric optic connection very soon..
