Browse Forums Building Standards; Getting It Right! 1 Aug 09, 2020 8:40 pm Hi, my private inspector found the following issue in pre-slab. When I spoke to my SS, he mentioned that the document that the private inspector was referring to wasn't the updated one. I believed that at the moment. But it seems that there is no updated document and its almost time for PCI. Is this a serious issue? Any help is appreciated.

You've waited until PCI and took the builders word that it is all compliant when (worse case scenario) the roof could potentially collapse in the future? If you already have a contract, is the inspection cost stated in there? If not they would be forced to issue you a variation which you could of course object to. 12 26143 I would send it to the certifier who is technically your representative and working on your behalf not the builder's 1 2490 Its the flashing and is normal. Some builders cover them up others just leave them handing. You can cover it up with an aluminium bracket or ask the builder. 7 11527 |
