I have significant structural damage and it is no longer safe to live in. An 8 yr old home needs to be demolished because of absolute negligence. The regulators need to start regulating and not just token. The housing industry is booming and non compliance is rampant. Unfortunately for me and others going through this, it is way too late for anything to be done. My neighbour cleared an area to prepare for the demolish and I was appalled what was found. So much for formwork, they used the existing fence the two years later fell down due to pressure. At least they used plastic. I will post these pictures up and lets have a game of spotting the defects!!

I'm sorry for how long this has dragged out for -thankfully, you received a positive outcome. What do you mean by "they used the existing fence"? Do you mean they built the house against it? Re: Another defective house story 78Feb 04, 2021 1:31 pm Hey Harts. Glad to hear your nightmare is coming to an end. Who ended up paying for the rebuild? Are you out of pocket for just legal fees?

Yes, Lisa06, they didn't use formwork for the slab for the garage, they used the fence as the formwork. You can see it in this picture of the indents of the fence. Great brick work too. Interesting how the Building Surveyor approved this as one of the mandatory inspections is to inspect before the slab is poured.
