I didn't want delay as have already lined up tiler,tiles,wardobes on Monday. I trust SS so he fix small issues.

Fixed Issues:

3) Brick Capping

4) All paint touch ups

5) Fixed mortar inconsistencies

6) Balcony handrail replaced

Pending Issues:

1) Clean the mortar work

2) Fix the Garage slab chips

3) Stairs paint , one tread has lot of scratches

4) Alfresco stacker door still has small dent

Overall I am excited lot of issues are fixed and few small issues are still there.

  2. Thanks for the compliment , we had same concern you like chipping/burnout. But we clearly mentioned to our SS before the brickwork start, showed our concern to him we are not going to accept bad brick work chipping/burn out. We didn't have any burn out but had chipping . At the end PGH sent NAWKAW to fix all the cips and we are very happy with our brick work. You need to be on top of your SS and if you see lot of chips you need to push EBH to bring NAWKAW to fix these chips. I hope it helps. Let me know if I can help you further.

    1. sorry for belated reply as I was away on holidays. I just checked your blog and great news bricking is done now the scary part is acid wash. All the chips and brown ends would be visible after the acid wash. Brick cleaners use very high pressure that may cause small chips as well. My mortor was off white and it is very bright. Just wait for the acid wash and then you will have clear picture. If you get lot of brick chips you need to get your builder to fix these chips through NAWKAW.

  4. Hi mate,

    Thanks for your reply, I was met SS onsite yesterday and discuss about chipping. He advised me once cleanup the bricks and see how it's worst, if need call PGH and have a look. Tomorrow or Friday bricks will be clean. I will let you know once it's cleaned. Thanks
