Wk 7 of renovation

bleah.

there has been no updates to this blog because our ID- NORTHWEST is causing us SOO MUCH grief.

Complaints so far
1) electical work is EXTREMELY SHODDY.
- casing on the walls have holes in them (casing cut too short & electrician can't be bothered to change)
- casing is broken at some places, but also not replaced
- casing is crooked and not flush against the edge of the walls
- wiring is just done in an extremely haphazard way! the electician put casing around half of both toilets even though all i needed was a single point going in for my lights-- so what's the point of encasing half of my toilet with wire & making it so ugly?!?!?
Extremely disapponted with the wiring work. Plus from wk 4 till now, the changes have not been rectified yet- despite repeated reminders!!!

2) Cabinets done up wrongly
So the cabinets are up, but the measurements for the kitchen cabinets were done wrongly.. so they will have to change a part of it to salvage the kitchen cabinets. sigh.

3) We wanted to change the position of one of the doors to our room, and so had to pay for a new door frame. Thing is- the new door frame was made too large for the door! so now they are gonna give us a new door. BUT Mike our ID says that when its painted, the colour might not look like our original door. ?!!?!?!?!?!?!? how can they do something like that!?!?!?!?!?!!?

4) The whole of Wk 4, there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING happening at our home. Only after we called Mike to ask what's happening that he said 'oh, coz we are busy somewhere else...' Wow. I would've been fine if the work could be completed by wk 6, but it's clearly not happened. So what gives?

and everytime i tell mike of the problems, he says he will tell the contractors. BUT NOTHING GETS DONE!!! So the wiring is still crooked, etc.

AAARRRGGGHH!!!
