This will help us diagnose the issue and therefore a solution. RE, Slabs, its not a mandated inspection. Why, because trades are considered to be experts in their field with the neccesary training to not require an inspection at every step and the fact that the NCC and relevant Australian Standard dictates how everything is to be consdtucted and finished and it is expected (in a perfert world) that all trades build to code. These types of finishes occour with poorly trained, unqualified, non-caring workers. its an unfortunate occourance of the construction industry. Though this never happens and unless you have a building inspecter or someone familiar with codes and standards at every stage of the job you will have deficincies. its the nature of the game unfortunately. Building a house that meets every single code and standard is possible, but it takes siginifantly longer and costs more. It shouldnt, but thats building. Thanks for the suggestion.
