I have recently learned that I am not alone, with the issue of very shoddy workmanship, refusals to pay and Mr Popham placing caveats on numerous other property owners titles. A lawyer made me aware that Mr Popham has done this dirty deed with numerous EX customers! I have learned that it is very time consuming and costly to challenge these caveats. I had been in contact with Jennian Homes head office at the time re shoddy workmanship but they chose not to do anything, for reasons I was not informed of!
HOUSE FAULTS
1) During concrete floor construction - no allowance made for power inlet or water inlet, which meant hacking holes into the foundation, which needed repairing, power in water pipes at risk of damage due to their exposure.
2) All (3) of the locking door handles in bathrooms/toilets replaced as they did not work.
3) Main entrance door handle always catches, resulting in several attempts to get door open - every time!!.
4) Many cracks showing around kitchen paint/plaster work.
5) One of the south bedroom window frames is not flush to wall - large gap all the way around.
6) 2 doors were hung wrong way round, one had to be changed to allow access, the other I said leave it as I didn’t want more damage! Should not have happened in first place if plan followed!
7) All southside windows placed lower than plan - I said leave it because of more delays and damage that would occur. Should not have happened if plan followed!!
8) Many cracks in plaster/paint work around door frames.
9) Big crack showing in ceiling in garage.
10) Huge crack showing on length of ceiling in lounge room.
11) Concrete foundation wall has big warp in it at back of house, resulting in bricks overhanging and sagging!
12) Many nails sticking out of concrete foundation wall.
13) Guttering is loose again on western side of house, causing loud rattling when wind blows.
14) Carpet not relaid properly around replacement hearth.
15) Plastering around plumbing outlets needs repairing, very rough.
16) Plastering under south facing aluminium door needs repairing, very rough.
17) Foundation wall very holey and rough in places.
18) Sliding rubbish bin draw fell out - only 2 small screws held it in place!!

20) Ensuite towel rail in wrong place - door hits it all the time. No door stop in ensuite.

23) Gaps in skirting boards in various places.

26) Main toilet seat loose.
27) Concrete floor wavy in places.
28) One of the aluminium windows catches on frame in family room - will not open.
29) Plumbers dug up concrete because pipes were all in the wrong place, concrete was never redone in kitchen and bathrooms resulting in showers and kitchen units installed on loose gravel!!! Is this legal
30) Water pipes in ceiling not insulated properly resulting in pipes freezing when air temperature drops to - 6oC or below, not good enough!!
31) Door between living areas jams in frame.
32) Door to main bedroom jams in frame.

35) No overflow outlet on water tank.
36) Sewage soakage system not installed correctly resulting in the system not working and raw sewage flowing down my paddock!! Not legal.
