17 days left?

I got a chance to sneak into the house tonight to find it in total disarray. They sprayed the moldings, but never covered our cabinets. There was a bowed wall in our kitchen so that is ripped apart... They are trying to stain our banisters and looks like they spilled the stain all over the landing...our hardwoods which are a quarter of the way done are only half covered.. Our tub is taken out and sitting in the master bedroom because of the huge mistake they made in there ..no stone fireplace yet..no appliances in yet..even some of our toilets are not in.... we literally close in 17 days!!! That's counting weekends! I'm not sure how they will finish... btw we have half our siding up..and it needs to be painted and we need a driveway!!?....are they kidding themselves or have all of you been at this stage three weeks from closing....I thought this was punch out stage where all the little things get taken care of??please let us know from those who have closed!!

  1. Wow, seems like an awful lot to get done in 17 days. Hopefully they can get it all done in time.

  2. It does sound like an awful lot of work and I have witnessed these guys performing miracles on some of these homes. When they work beyond the eight hours they get so much work done. I believe you will be fine. In the meantime, check with your PM and find out what his plan is for completing your home by your settlement date and also keep packing if you have not finished to be READY to move into your BEAUTIFUL VICTORIA FALLS!!

  3. I have heard from others about how bad the painting was. I spoke with a soon to be neighbor and she has had the cleaning crew to her house 3 times since she's moved in to clean paint splatter, dust in the creases of hard wood floors, and walls. Do not settle for less than new and clean. You are paying too much to move in to a dirty home.

  4. We had paint all over our carpet and polyurethane that had dripped on the wood floors. Ryan Homes sent someone out to remove the paint from the carpet.
