Yesterday our kitchen faucet became loosened and is basically flopping around .
We are in in Beresford less than a year ,does anyone know if there is a one year warranty with O Hora builders.
Previously I thought there was but dont see it in the pack provided.
Anyone else have a problem with kitchen faucet? any suggestions for fixing ?.

They should fix that for you - at a min it is just one of the kitchen fitters popping in to fix it. I had to tighten mine (in house 6 years) and it is a simple job.newdonabate wrote: ↑19 Oct 2020, 10:06 Yesterday our kitchen faucet became loosened and is basically flopping around .

Funny the last topic was related to plumbing. For the last 2 or 3 days the oddest thing. Out of the blue a vibration noise has occured 2 or 3 times what i felt was in the false Wall between the kitchen and utilty room. The 1st time it happened it ran for about 30 seconds. Next day again. I even approached the neighbours to see if they had any work going on.. Now this morning. I turned on the kitchen hot tap and off it goes and louder. A loud humming vibration and i could feel it in the wall between the rear bedroom and stairway wall. We are in a 3 bedroom house. Anyone else experiencing this or have experienced?

- what’s the build quality like? - Great build quality, house is still standing after 7 years. No issues at all.
- sound proofing between semi d? - Good overall, can't hear the neighbour's TV if that's what you mean.
- % allocated social? - No idea and don't care - neighbour's social status or income doesn't concern me. We all just be neighbourly!
- plan to occupy, but should things change, what do they rent for? - €1,400-€1,800 - depends on bedrooms.
- decent internet provider? Virgin, EIR, Vodafone etc.
Many thanks

Hi All, hope all good and safe.
I'm buying an house in Beresford and expected to have the house ready September/October. Starting looking for some of next steps and did find this forum/reviews and comments really useful.
Was looking if the current residents could provide some feed-back/comments/help on:
(1) Attics conversions (Hora recommended Aboutspace.ie)
(2) Floor (we will put wooden floor all house/rooms - Hora recommended John Gouldbury)
(3) Alarms - what people have being installing and recommend for the area.
(4) Broadband best speed and performance to be recommended for the area(Hora mention that Virgin Media has been cabled through the development)
(5) Electricity and heating - does the Air to water Heat pumps works well and the houses well insulate and warm?. Hora mention that expected running cost including all electrical appliances of about €100 per month (heat, hot water, cooking, light, tv’s etc). Is this a realistic cost?
Thanks for any comments in advance, hope to meet some of you near future. Any other advise or recommendation , more than welcome to share. Also notice there's a facebook and whatapps group. Would be great if can be added to the group and participate.
Cheers and Thanks Vitor

Was looking if the current residents could provide some feed-back/comments/help on:
(1) Attics conversions (Hora recommended Aboutspace.ie) - Some find them expensive but they do the majority of conversions. Would recommend ringing round suppliers to get a cost that fits your budget
(2) Floor (we will put wooden floor all house/rooms - Hora recommended John Gouldbury) - We did our own but John again does a lot of the houses but again you should ring around for costs to fit your budget
(3) Alarms - what people have being installing and recommend for the area. - Each to their own here, wide selection in the estate, depends on what you are looking for
(4) Broadband best speed and performance to be recommended for the area(Hora mention that Virgin Media has been cabled through the development) - Only Virgin available for the first year, their bundles go up to 1GB download speeds, very reliable so far
(5) Electricity and heating - does the Air to water Heat pumps works well and the houses well insulate and warm?. Hora mention that expected running cost including all electrical appliances of about €100 per month (heat, hot water, cooking, light, tv’s etc). Is this a realistic cost? - Houses are extremely well insulated and our bills are currently coming in at under €100 per month BUT it depends on what you are doing, this is only a guide, others do have more expensive bills due to usage i.e. using driers, having heating turned up
Thanks for any comments in advance, hope to meet some of you near future. Any other advise or recommendation , more than welcome to share. Also notice there's a facebook and whatapps group. Would be great if can be added to the group and participate. - Please apply to be added to both, the Administrators of these groups will sort you out

You know it’s cold outside when you go outside and it’s cold.
Hi All
I was wondering if any of you used your BER cert number and MRPN to look up your BER on the SEAI website??
I have tried it on mine and the BER can't be found - queried it with SEAI but have had no response.
Has anyone any knowledge of who the BER assessor was?
Thanks!

Attic Conversions - I would recommend you get insultation specifications in writing,
Floor -John is good and market price
Boradband had Virgin for year switch to Eir , much faster
Been using usee for 15 years here in Donabate. Local company and really helpful and responsive. I've emailed them whilst I was on holidays a couple of times and they've been great. Definitely would recommend.
