Glad to hear that work is progressing there and that Fadesa seem to be coming up trumps with snagging, seems 8/10 for that and (see John and Kath's last post ) 0/10 for communication. Althought I do have to say Paula does (eventually) reply to my emails.

Ta !!

Satelite dishes are being installed starting at Block 10 with a dish on each portal on top of the liftshaft. I will be posting later tonight the announcement inviting Satellite subscription that is on the utilities doors in each block.

1. Entrance to Block 10
2. Planting of cedar trees opposite Block10
3. Unwrapping the palm tree foilage.
4. Roadside Blocks 4-8
5. The pool at Block10

The shot of the pool looks to have been taken on a good day and the paths are all wet so your comment about watering day and night holds true but I thought you should not water when the sun was up because it would scald the plants.

Regards,

I just wondered how many people are affected by the fact that their patio doors open inwards instead of outwards!
We recently completed our snagging on our townhouse in manzana 2 (3 bed/3 storey), and amongst other things the main problems were that a window in one of the bathrooms overlapped the bath which meant that a shower screen could not be put up!
Damp was found in the lounge, and in one of the first floor bedrooms the patio doors open inwards and is positioned some 25/30cms from where it should be.
The result of this is that, to be fair to Fadesa they are moving the window in the bathroom, they have pulled up the first floor terrace to reseal it so that damp does not get through into the lounge, but they have said that the Fadesa contract states that changes may be made due to technical, commercial and/or legal reasons and that all patio doors must open inwards.
So now with the patio doors opening inwards, the wardrobe doors opening inwards, and the patio doors being in the wrong place it is not possible to have two single beds in the room and use both of the patio doors freely. We were told that we should put a double bed into the room which would create more space (this would not be suitable from a rental position).
Is anyone else experiencing these sort of problems where things seem to have built randomly rather that build to the plan?
And has anyone had these problems with patio doors and found any solutions!
We are perfectly happy to not complete until everything is sorted out.

Regards

Andrew

My wife and I are keen cyclists. We were not very impressed with the local Ayamonte bike shop in terms of choice and prices. Are there any other bike shops in the area, say in Leppe or Huelva, that people can recommend?

Also is it easy to locate the superstore Leroy Merlin in Huelva? Directions would be appreciated.

Grupo AEA Administration.

Satellite Dishes for Vista Esuri


A considerable number of owners have shown interest in viewing digital channels in their properties via satellite dishes. Owners are reminded that it is prohibited in the statutes to install dishes on the exterior of the building. The following option is available:-

The Company Security Satellite Solutions S.L. have proposed to install dishes (1 Sky + 1 Digital dish ASTRA) on each block permitting viewing of channels in all desired properties. This installation will be supported by those owners wishing to view UK and other Digital TV and will require a digi-box inside their property and connecting to the Communal Dishes.

Owners interested in this opportunity and to obtain further information should indicate a positive response to this office to enable the administration to obtain the best possible quotation






Please send fax or email response to:-

AEA Administration Fax 959-471576

I do not know what the prices are yet but cabling has already been drawn up through the portals. Block 10 which is mainly En
glish owned is planned to be the first in the hope for the greatest uptake. The installers are English guys.

Hola BobD,
Just read BobD's blog for June - well done Bob & Carole! I see you've had some happy shopping sprees on the other side of the river, too. The boat trip sounds great!
May I ask if Rago apartment owners have found the situation with the patio doors (opening inwards, rather than sliding) problematic? Thanks.

Hasta manana mis esurianos,
Carol
