Did you have your lawyer act for you in regards to the making a claim on the building surveyor's PI? It will more than likely cost more in legals than what I'd get back..... however now the time frame has lapsed thanks to incorrect information provided by the VCAT member at the hearing of who is ultimately responsible. (The business survey company employed or the actual individual who signed the certificate of occupancy ) Re: Has anyone rectified slab heave successfully 800Feb 04, 2016 4:52 pm Oh rightio. I'm not really sure how all of that works, but in our industry (engineering) the PI insurance is held by the company, but the legal responsibility under the act is that of the registered professional engineer who signs off on it. So your compensation would come from the company's insurer, but disciplinary action could also be take against the individual (e.g. they could be re-registered from the board of professional engineers). As for building surveyors/inspectors, I am not sure if there is any legislation for them. But regardless of what any specific provisions there are any state acts, you should still be able to pursue under common law. But as you say it comes down to whether you have the energy and will (and money) to go through with a court case.
