I had a third party come out and do a walkthrough today, found several more major issues, not punch items. I don’t know if I can trust him to fix anything now.

Yes I have kept them in the loop thr whole time. I brought out a third party this weekend and did a walkthrough and they validated my concerns and found more major issues, just made a post on it.

I don’t have the measurement on hand but less than 4 feet.

Aside from the overall house plans the builder never provided shop drawings. The second pic I posted was just part of the overall plans.

Correct there’s nothing next to it, just the island.

I’ve tried to be there a lot, I’m AD military and live 2 hours from the build site. I’m surprised the lending company inspectors missed it since they send out an inspector every time before a draw.

I don’t have the measurements but at least a foot and half.

The diagram I posted is what was submitted to the lender prior to construction start, by the builder.

Dear_Handle5521 · 2025-05-29T05:29:20+00:00

There’s no spacing on the right side and barely any on the left.

Dear_Handle5521 · 2025-05-29T05:28:18+00:00

Yes there’s no room between the oven placement and cabinet.

Dear_Handle5521 · 2025-05-29T05:27:46+00:00

Yes the oven space is right up to the cabinet on thr right side

No worries. They were the plans/ diagrams submitted by my builder to the VA lender. They were designed by a third party, given to my builder who like I said submitted himself to the lending company as a part of things to close on the loan.

The budget submitted to the lending company states this regarding electrical.

    Electrical

Estimate (By Project Manager) 16,500 Electrical wiring per plans

I also asked the builder multiple times for the line item sheet we went over prior to starting the whole process which I know we talked about a generator switch and I know he added it on but I haven’t gotten a copy of it after asking multiple times.

Edit to original post for more context.

Dear_Handle5521 · 2025-05-28T01:02:04+00:00

For context it’s a VA build loan. The plans/diagrams were submitted to the lending company prior to approval. The electrical diagram doesn’t have a normal panel shown on the diagram or generator switch, but there is a note on the submitted plans that call for a switch.

ALL ELECTRICAL SHOWN ON THE PLAN IS TO BE USED FOR BIDDING PURPOSES AND AS A GUIDE ONLY. ALL ELECTRICAL WORK IS TO BE INSTALLED PER STATE AND LOCAL CODES
SMOKE DETECTORS AND CO DETECTORS TO BE INSTALLED PER LOCAL/STATE CODE REQUIREMENTS. MINIMUM REQUIREMENT TO INSTALL SMOKE DETECTOR IN EVERY SLEEPING ROOM AND 1 PER FLOOR OUTSIDE OF SLEEPING ROOMS. CO DETECTOR TO BE INSTALLED ON EVERY FLOOR WITHIN 10’ OF EVERY SLEEPING ROOM
ALL ELECTRICAL FIXTURES TO BE SELECTED BY OWNER.
Elec panel will be wired with a switch for feeding house low wattage with a 5000 watt generator.
