Brickwork compete and notified of delays

Brickwork now looks to be complete (apart from acid wash).

Plastering is still not completed and still requires sanding. As mentioned in previous posts I have quite a few issues with the quailty of plastering, but SS has insisted it be complete before they are looked at. Plastering process in nearing a month now, which is a bit disserpointing.

I have made a list of windows that are bowed and will pass this onto SS. Some are to the extent that they do not seal and allow air to pass freely.

We are also trying to change the color of our roller door and water tank (Ironstone color we chose is alot more blue than expected); Kings are not being very helpful with this. They initally said no as it was "already in the system". We have requested they try a little harder and told them we are prepared to pay a variation fee if required.

Finally we received a letter from Kings on Friday stating that the company they engaged to do our cabinetry/kitchen is now "unable to do so". I suspect this means they have gone broke. The letter told us to expect delays due to this. I would not be suprised if the delay is a month or two. With this said we are glad our kitchen was not installed by the company before they went broke and are prepared to wait as long as we recieve a quailty job.
