Any chance you could share to Alternative solution.
We have been very curious to know what it covers, or doesn't cover.
We were after this from our BC, when she came back with the news that they have changed, however I'm now not sure if she is correct or your BC is correct?
Has it changed in your contract or does it still state 'Alternative solution'? If so, you may want a building variation raised to state they no longer use the alternative solution and will be building to Australian standards.
Hi inexp_user
Thanks for pointing this out to me.
I have just signed a Building Variation today stating that they will complete by waterproofing to Australian Standard AS 3740-2010
No chance for them to weasel out of correctly waterproofong our house now.
Our site supervisor told us today that PD are actually doing away with the alternative solution. However he didn't use that method with our build anyway, even though our contract said they would https://waldorfgrangebuild.wordpress.co ... rproofing/[/quote]
Can anyone confirm if there is waterproofing (if any) that is done in your powder rooms and other wet areas on your ground floor?

Toilets and laundry and wherever there's a shower
