Hi all,

Heading out to handover next week :)

Can anyone advise what state the electrics will be in? I am hoping that light sockets will be fitted so that we can test the electrics?

Hi ,

           We snagged last month and  got our date with notary on 13th July. Snagging went really well only a few minor things to put right and they're on with it now. On the lighting front there wasn't even a supply to our apt as they had removed the builders power and hadn't got our block online. All the wall sockets were fitted but all you get on the lighting front is wires hanging out of the ceiling. If your supply is on then you can plug in wall lamps but no ceiling lights 'til you purchase fittings. When you go to buy lights then the shop normally fit them free of charge which is good if you don't have any tools to do the job. Have fun as the adventure starts now.

So much for Health & Safety!!

Does anyone know where we can find a good hardware store to buy tools, light fittings, screws etc? (ie something like B&Q).

Hi Marke

                  We have used Matt at SFS for all our furniture and lighting, he is very professional and his prices aren't bad too. He delivers and fits everything and this is included in the price including disposing of any packaging and cleaning after his visit.His website is SF-SUPPLIES.COM.

                                Hope This Helps  Andrew

Andrewhaigh, How did you manage to do your snagging have all your furniture and lights fitted etc and yet you dont sign until 13th July, you usually cant do all that until you have signed. P

Hi P,

          We were due to sign on 14th June and we already had a holiday booked at La Torre on 27th May so we rang polaris and did the snagging while we were there on 31st May. While we were there we went to Matt's store and chose all our light fittings and furniture and he told us when we were ready he would deliver and fit everything at our convenience. We didn't complete on 14th June as the habitation certificates hadn't been issued, but they have since and we now sign on Tues 13th July. We are flying out this Friday for a week at La Torre and to complete and get our keys (hooray after 5 years 7 months waiting). Hope this answers your question.

                                                Andrew Haigh.

Hi   

 

Is the snagging done by ourselves or do we get someone in?

Is it done before we sign or at the singing?

Thanks

 

Saige

Once, and only once you have agreed a completion date, you are allowed access to the appartment to do the snagging before completion.  We  used a snagging service and it was well worth the money as they checked things we would not have thought of and followed up with Polaris to make sure that the things that were found were signed off.

While we are talking about the snagging I would just like to say that the pre installation for the air conditioning is the best so far that we have seen on all the different resorts, so hopefully there will be no problems for anyone there.

This was not our experience.  We had out air con put in by Chillout and when they arrived on site they found that the were leaks in the piping so we had to get Polaris in to fix the pre-installed plumbing.  Credit to Chillout that they did not complain that they had to visit again to complete the job and they managed everything for us.

sorry I was refering to the new Penthouse apartments as this seems to be where people are signing for at the moment, we accept that there have been problems in the past, but finally they seem to have got it right.

If anybody is interested we have now carried out the first inspections on this development and have sample reports and an advice pack available

We were impressed with the general quality, normal type defects with walls, windows etc had some external cracking and some water ingress from the roof area but nothing really serious

A coupke of things to watch are that, because there is no office onsite you do not immediately gve you a copy of the snagging list, you can check this onsite, but they then have to e-mail you a copy later

Because this list should become an exhibit when you complete at the Notary, and it may not be easy to print one off, I suggest that you ask for a copy to be e-mailed to your lawyer directly

By having this document as an exhibit it becomes part of the legal pack if there are any disputes

Also make sure that you take a look the communial area on the roof, they are not strictly speaking part of the check but they will need some work

They are now also encouraging people to communicate online to chase their snagging repairs

As with most of these developments our servyce includes unlimited visited to the property including a check if you are having furniture fitted because with Polaris you will normally require 4-7  visits before things are cleared, one specifically for a utility check on electrical conection and pumbing, ideally before you fit any lights

I also looked at the pre-installation for the AC and in order to fit it in they are designed for a multi-split system,  internal units running forma central roof unit because this is all that will fit with the space left

Again happy to provide any help and guidance plus I have produced the normal completion guide for this development and if you need this please PM or mail me
