Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

but the site manager says that by the final deadline at the beginning of October, nothing is expected to change because they regularly make up for lost time in the structural shell phase during the interior finishing phase. I don’t believe that – unless they have an army of their own “screed Ahmeds.”

The companies and tradespeople already knew each other and have worked together before But will they still get along when they’re constantly getting in each other’s way on site?
There are hardly any ways to catch up beyond those two (“additional own workforce of helpers” and “having trades working simultaneously instead of one after the other”). Otherwise, the only other option I can think of is switching to “fast-drying” materials. Overtime has probably already been maxed out given the current workload.

Well, our neighbors started their construction exactly one year ago. They worked with a locally based general contractor, and the house was ready for occupancy by mid-October. They moved in during the first week of November, based on their own preference. The build is solid, with no shoddy work—it just went smoothly. So yes, it’s possible; no need to panic.
For us, construction will probably start soon as well, but we are building with an architect, not a general contractor. I expect the construction period to be about 9 months. There is quite a difference between having everything managed by one party or contracting individual trades separately. Celebrating Christmas this year in our own home seems unlikely, but I wouldn’t give up hope for you yet.

For the period after nine months, a compensation amount was contractually agreed in advance. Therefore, there is indeed significant pressure. You’re probably the only one who believes that; not advising, not helping.

Therefore, I will not create artificial pressure and risk poor workmanship. It will be finished when it is finished. I remain relaxed about it.

He also complained that the stone cutter machine seems to be broken, and now a cutoff grinder is being used, which creates a lot of dust. But there’s probably nothing he can do about that, or is there?
