Building With Bay West Homes

The journey of building a new house...

Wednesday, January 30, 2002

I heard back today from Jeff Rust about the sink, and we've decided to go with the oval stainless steel sink. We've opting for the same brand as our other sinks, so the finish will be the same. Although part of me wants to say "Make our house the way it was supposed to be on the blueprint!", ultimately that choice would be expensive for Bay West and very inconvenient for us. And the wall would never quite look right either. Of course, not wanting to let Bay West off the hook completely for screwing up, I asked for something else: that they put sod in our front yard when spring comes. After some discussion, Bay West agreed to give us $250 in cash for us to use to sod the yard when we wanted, likely after Carma delivers our tree (sometime in the spring). I think they're getting off pretty easy, but I'm satisfied. If the error was more serious, this would be a bigger deal, but ultimately the "problem" isn't much of one at all.
