when we got our keys, we complained to them and they asked us to follow s&p... my huhby were pretty pissed off and decided he went through the s&p, check our with some of our developer friends and relatives. so according to s&p the developers have 30 days to complete the job (complete unit with settled defects)... so we hand in our complains of defects including the flooring and other things that are not done accordingly
once 30 days, we have already prepared the letter to send out to council and we know we have the rights to ask our contractors to fix it and the developer have to pay for it... we gave a verbal warning that we have got all that in hand and hence the developer settle our problems within the 1½ week time...
but anyway, what i am saying is after all they are not as bad. i've met worst. my bro's apartment, he bought in the year 1999 or 2000 cant remember... and now only they got their keys. my best friend's hse, water tank burst and also dozens of defects. they took their key on 31st Dec and now still doing defects... so, i'd say ours is pretty good... they actually gave us the final keys after 6 weeks and now we are in the mist of renovating...

Unless you are used to get cheated, there is no excuse for cheating! Regardless of developers reputation, you have every right to voice your demand. You are not asking for more but merely a job done in accordance to a mutually agreed construction specifications.
I can understand every developers have their own weaknesses, but that doesn't give them the right to provide clients wt shoddy work. You are paying with your hard earned money, hence do make it counts!
