How was it Joyce?
Hello
there,
Well, I must agree with all your comments, from the white plain door to all list of small imperfections to more major errors. I will begin from the start, so my appointment was 9am today, met with Mike a young grad no more than 23yrs old I think. He was very nice like the rep you guys had, Nick was it? Mike, unfortunately does not know about all the features of the unit so I guess I will have to learn myself down the road but I think he went through the most important ones.
We did go through the main entrance and it is very much under construction still. I have to apologize to David, I said I would remember to take pictures and I took Zero today. My family member did of my unit but not exterior. I do not think it is any much closer to being done than back in December because I imagine that with holidays, very little was done.
Since I too am on the ground floor and further back to the south end, we kept walking and I see what you mean about the white door being very plain. The frame around the entrance currently has a black spray paint which I think could be done better as well, like the door choice. I kept thinking about your comment and I would have to very much agree with you.
From the sounds of your inspection and David’s, I think the caulkings missing, dents, chips and the list goes on, we are all experiencing the same things. I particularly had an issue with the fact that the power went off half way and it never did came back on. The only thing that saved me was that I had in fact brought a small flashlight with me so I hope I went through seeing all the fix ups that are needed.
I have a question for you guys regarding the shower door, my agreement says enclosed glass door for the tub so I reached out to the customer service group. Did you guys as well? Sorry, I am just jumping trying to remember everything to share.
Again, I will agree about the comments regarding the homes purchased 30, 20 or 15 years ago, they would never had this many imperfections. I will get a lot of hate for this but these workers are not the same professional tradesman and likely only fitted for general labour and not tradesman as a careers and will never carry the same pride to this craft. I think I will likely need to learn how to fix up things in the near future as all the imperfections will likely not be done.
I will leave on a positive note, I am glad about the patio space and privacy barrier. I was a little surprised that the fence does not have a gate to walk out to the road. I do not mind since the sliding door only locks from the inside anyways. Right in front of me were workers moving top soil in the middle of winter so I thought that was a little odd. Speeding for the landscaping I guess.
I look forward to meeting everyone and please keep each other with updates.
! Thank you for sharing your findings. I will be sharing mines this Friday and I will take pictures for sure.
