The floors were the biggest item. There were several spots throughout our home
that needed attention. The issue that I
have with the flooring is that a lot of these issues were pointed out during
framing. When we pointed out the nails
that didn’t make it into the studs we were told that it was fine because they
used glue and screws in addition to the nails.
WRONG! So note to those in the
framing process….if you see nails that were properly placed, say something and
have them fix it then. It’s a lot easier
to repair when you aren’t dealing with carpet, vinyl, or whatever flooring you
choose.
The yard. OH the
yard. I’m so tired of this yard. I put this on my 10 month review and got a
phone call about it. I said there were
holes in the front and that the grade in the back STILL is not right. The holes were supposed to be taken care of
and they would take a look at the grade.
The landscapers came out and said they were here to fix holes and the
back yard. I was excited! Finally, some acknowledgement about the
crappy job in the back yard. As they
worked we were told how the grade was incorrect and they were going to fix
it. Then about 15 minutes later we were
told they had the wrong house and the back yard wasn’t getting anything. It would have been nice to know that the
landscapers were coming in the first place, but hey they came. I
would love to see some documentation on what the grade is supposed to be
between the houses and in the back yard.
I know without a doubt that it is not correct, but it was made “crystal
clear” to me that RH would not do anything else to the yard. As stated in a previous blog post, if the
president of RH came to my house there is no way that he would agree that the
yard is what it is supposed to be. NO
WAY!
Here are some pictures of our beautiful back yard….or rock
garden.
