Faucets and other little things

Faucets and other little things

Are they little things compared to all the other issues?  Imagine all the ads, past and present, showing wonderful idyllic condominiums with so many imaginary promises only met with cheap cost-cutting reality to hit the buyers and Unit Owners as time goes by and value is in question.

We had already replaced and fixed the bathroom towel racks.  Yes, so cheap not placing plastic anchors into the drywall to secure the screws for the towel racks.  I guess some centavo-counting accountants were busy figuring out how to save with every piece and every movement in the construction.  Screws into drywall.  Imagine.

We will point to the other matters as we recall the other items and will report on future little things to be repaired and actually brought up to the standard seen in all the ads enticing the innocent.

The following are photos of the kitchen faucet in one of our units which corroded underneath the upper arm.  How much did it save buying this brand?  How much was made?

We had also replaced the faucet in our other unit avoiding the sprinkler that would form from the defective manufacturer used.

We had also replaced the shower faucet prior to this in the same unit since the handle was freezing upgrading to better quality.  Seek out all those ads with idyllic pictures and videos.  See all such propaganda many developers/builders hit the subconscious with then showing closer-to-reality pictures and then model units are shown followed by the actual unit upon turnover.  Of course, there are problems many encounter at turnover to even inspect the unit without signing this or that form.  But, the original hope and dream are still in the background clouding the reality.  Reality is left for the future when we all suffer.
