Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building H M Q3 721Jun 06, 2014 8:26 pm Hey guys! I'm having real issues with the next door builder, I have been asking them for 3 weeks to remove their temp fencing off of my land! The fencers came yesterday and were unable to complete the job due to this. It also means I am unable to get down that side of my house, constant debris and building waste is being pushed onto my block and they keep saying they will do something about it yet nothing happens! Iv had it!! We have a dog which is waiting to come here and they know that!!! They just don't give a Sh!t and I am at my whits end!!! What can I do Building H M Q3 722Jun 06, 2014 8:55 pm Can you talk to owner instead of builder? Owners know that they are the one going to live next door to you for a long period of their lives. Builder knows that he is there for another couple of months, and care factor is zero. We had issue with one builder at the back who was throwing rubbish and debris on all adjacent blocks happily. I wrote a letter to owner and explained him whole situation. It was all clean within couple of days. Re: Building H M Q3 724Jun 07, 2014 12:45 pm The problem is there is a lot of rubbish that also needs to be moved, I don't really want to spend all my spare time moving it all, but maybe I have no other option Re: Building H M Q3 725Jun 07, 2014 2:10 pm Well iv just had to call the SES in due to the house next door starting to flood my alfresco Re: Building H M Q3 726Jun 07, 2014 7:27 pm Oh man sounds like you're no having a joyus time Our home building & decorating blog - http://www.rocknsoul.com.au/blog Re: Building H M Q3 727Jun 08, 2014 9:28 am Nope!

At the moment out back yard is now ruined due to all the flooding they caused from their house, so looking at getting a landscaper in to fix it and then bill them for it... It's just getting ridiculous! Re: Building H M Q3 737Jun 30, 2014 11:43 am HI Mate have you consulted with Private building inspector? can you please provide me with details if you have? Re: Building H M Q3 738Jul 07, 2014 2:27 pm Oh man! The dramas do not end with building... Our next door neighbour is building and his house is somewhat higher than ours which will require a retaining wall, However he is trying to say I need to pay for it. I have confirmed with the council and a retaining wall engineer that it is him that has to pay for it, however he is still refusing to do it Such a big headache Re: Building H M Q3 739Jul 07, 2014 2:31 pm WTF... why would you need to pay for it? So confusing. If you aren't going to pay for it and you have it in writing fro the council and the retaining wall engineer that you don't have to, isn't that now up to him? Or is he threatening to take things further? Howdy all. I am looking for feedback on what people would do to maximise and make an area as flat as possible.
