Buying in Maryborough portlaoise ISSUES

it indeed is. Joe seemed optimistic to get the house handed over in July so let’s see.

will see if I can visit the site over the weekend to see how much have the roadworks progressed

Hey Maryborough Family Members,

Is anyone looking into flooring options, just wanted some guidance on which place or person you guys are taking into consideration from.

Thanks

I think it's only when they're going to make a path and finish all surface than maybe.

Hi

I got called for 2nd snag today going there tomorrow.

As far as I know they have called all from 35 to 42 back for second snag.

as an example, it’s something like this https://www.screwfix.ie/p/cooke-lewis-visor-hood-600mm-stainless-steel/144GX?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADmaiecDcQtRp7T8nvB_KWgVKrtTe&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItfq_g86chwMVRJJQBh2_LAW8EAQYAyABEgJ4lPD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

also, if it helps, I had about 89-90 snag points as well but all minor

Hi all,

Here is the update I got from Joe today, I hope I remembered everything correctly:

Row 35-42 are currently “de-snagging”/doing second snag as mentioned above. We were happy that our snags had been fixed and had been told others in the row have already signed off too. However no one will get keys until roadwork is done.

The tarmac was being poured when we were there today, at the start of the road as far as the bungalows. Their plan is to tarmac the area / complete the paving for the rest of the area during this week and next week. Once this is done they hope to get keys to those who have de-snagged i.e. 35-42 before the builders holidays on the 19th. There will still be a few on site during the holidays.

They are currently snagging (I guess fixing the first snags) on row 43-48. I think he said one or two of them might potentially be ready soon for de-snag also.

They haven’t started snagging the middle row (28-34) yet. They will start them next, then finally the bungalows.

We did it ourselves

Hi same was down today all signed off..they have started the road it will be done by this evening. Cobble lock only being started today.

He is going to try get some from 35 to 42 in before he goes, it depends on who's ready mortgage wise etc. Otherwise it will be when they are back from holidays.

My house was spotless and all snags done.

And I never thought I'd say it but definelty from looking at it today, worth the wait.😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Doubt anyone will be in until August.

The council won't sign off until that cobble lock is done or at least near enough done...there's only 5 working days left until the builders holidays.

Hi all

My solicitor received the completion letter for the house today but engineer report and council report outstanding.

I'm 35 to 42 so presume others would of received also.

I am also 35-42 and was holding out hope to get in this week if they got the road done. We got the completion letter but our solicitor has told us there’s zero chance of getting in this week even if the road was done as the sale can’t be processed that quickly. Not sure if other peoples solicitors have said the same…

Also waiting almost 3 years but at least we are almost there 🙈

that’s really helpful thanks for the update. I was dreading everything being put on pause for 2 weeks but that’d be great if it can keep going

We had about 100 too and in fairness to them they did seem to address the majority where they could - even very minor superficial things. They had our list printed out and ticked off so you could see they had gone through it.

There was 1 thing they hadn’t fixed (patchy painting outside the back) and I honestly think they just forgot. We would have liked them to address that, however we were told that they’d have to finish the first snag on all houses first before coming back to any second snags. Based on where they are with snags now that probably would have meant adding on months for us which just wasn’t worth it. Overall we were very happy with it.
