Why the same defects recur across Catherine Field builds

Most homes going up in Catherine Field are built by the same volume builders and trade crews working across the south west growth corridor. That is why the same items recur from one build to the next: tie down hardware left incomplete at frame, and finish items collecting at handover. Knowing the pattern tells us where to look first on your build. Your report will be about your house.

Volume builders and most trades work across the whole south west corridor.

At frame, tie down washers, triple grips and bracket fixings are the recurring items.

At handover, most items are finish and fit off, which is where a list can look minor but still has to be closed out.

Every item is recorded against the requirement it misses, not against habit.

Your report covers your house and nothing else.
