Day 98: 3 Months Maintenance

Had the 3 months maintenance done. Nothing major & nothing that can't be easily fixed:-

The bifold door doesn't latch properly, i.e. we cannot close it without using the dead bolt. They'll get someone to come in & adjust the bifold door to fix this.

The handle for the bifold door is tarnished. They'll replace this with a new one.

Ensuite toilet, the flush doesn't hold. They'll get the plumber to have a look.

Leak from the sink in the bathroom. They'll get the plumber to have a look as well, I think they just didn't seal it properly.

Floorboard is a bit rough on one of the surface in the living room, not sure what they'll do with this but they'll get trueloc to have a look.

Overall, we've been happy with the house & haven't had any problem with it at all.

Day 71: Fencing Done

Fencing was completed last week. We have a secure front yard now for the kids & dog to play. Thinking to stain the picket fence instead of painting it, I kinda like the wood colour. Probably will do it this weekend or next weekend.


Thinking of what to do with the landscaping. Will be very carfeful with what we do because a client & a colleague of ours got movements on their slabs & PD been blaming the landscaping as the cause of that. Will be following their cases & make sure we'll plan the landscaping in accordance to CSIRO's recommendation http://www.publish.csiro.au/Books/download.cfm?ID=3612
