Clause in contract about independent inspections 35May 22, 2018 10:52 pm Yes builders are using tactics to pressure home owners to use their surveyors in Victoria.
Good reputation of surveying company ...... remember if the builder selects them they work for the builder. And as someone else above said , sales staff of builders are delightful. They disappear once you sign the contract and most know nothing of building standards. My SS and the trades were delightful people. Does that mean that they had the time to check workmanship.... no. If the builder didn’t have anything to gain they would not be sweet talking clients to use their surveyor. It is worth the extra $ to have someone independent on your side. QUESTION THE BUILDER WHO DEMAND YOU USE THEIR SURVEYOR. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. They do want you to sign the contract. Until you sign you have some leverage. Re: Clause in contract about independent inspections 36May 22, 2018 11:00 pm If you builder is asking for 2 weeks to rectify after inspection reports Are they ok with you delaying stage payments for these 2 weeks? Will they respond in writing to each item? Is that what they need 2 weeks? 2 weeks seems excessive for a large company who has trades on call at other jobs they can pull in. For a small company that builds a handful of homes a year, I agree trades such as bricklayers and framers can be hard to get back. But if this 2 weeks was used by my builder to fix stuff and check work done by trades or even show understanding of some items in the inspection reports like what complete separation meant when sending me photos to say it was fixed, I would have been happy. Unless there is something in special conditions the builder does not have to give you timeline. If your demolition contractor has not removed Asbestos and it was found… 12 28691 You have mandatory building inspections and privately engaged building inspections. The difference between the two comes down to inspecting the building so it's safe and… 3 18023 You talk about deletions, are they variations or PS and PC adjustments? pleas list them 1 16455 |
