Hello everyone,
I’m wondering what would be a reasonable time to arrange the utility connections. When is the earliest this can realistically be done? Right after the shell construction?
The reason I’m asking is that I want to avoid having to chase the contractors unnecessarily for a long time. Ideally, I would arrange a date where it wouldn’t be a problem if the company or their subcontractor only shows up a few weeks later.
We already had scheduling issues with the utility provider during the dismantling of the old house connection. The subcontractor simply did not show up, which ultimately delayed the demolition by 2 weeks and then also postponed the crane setup/start of the shell construction by another 2 weeks. I would therefore prefer the connection to be installed and unused up to the utility room, rather than moving in and having no internet for the first few weeks because the provider doesn’t cooperate.
Looking forward to your advice.
