Contract completion was a month ago, but we're still not in the house. We did our final inspection, noted the items that needed fixing, went back 2 weeks later to find most of the items had been rectified and made final payment so we could get the keys.
Most issues were minor and easy to fix, ie. paint, wrong tap size, render quality, etc. The biggest issue we came across was the front facade - the bricks around the garage look nothing like Daniel Robertson London's which have a distinct blue/grey firing. Given the time and effort we put into selecting the bricks and developing a colour scheme centred around them, this was a major problem for us. The remainder of the house looks stunning, but check out the picture below.
So we're guessing one of two things could have happened, the bricks weren't blended across palettes or we were supplied an incorrect batch. As the wall cannot be re-bricked we've been advised that the solution is to colour match the bricks using Nawkaw's services. Hopefully these guys do a good job as the Mrs has high expectations.
