Re: Faults appearing a year after building.What course of ac 10Aug 06, 2021 10:27 pm SaveH2O Master Builders represent their members, not the buyers. Contracted referenced Standards are what you go by. Unfortunately you can only notify the builder in writing, take photos that show a refernce to size of cracks and monitor the situation over the next 12 - 24 months. Cracks up to 2mm wide are not considered abnormal but you could consider having some slab levels taken to be used as this early reference point. Your situation has been experienced many times before by other Homeone members, if you use appropriate key words to do a forum search, you will be able to read about the time frames and experience of others. The steps they took may assist to understanding your own situation a bit better. Did you take many photos during construction that show the perimeter drainage and was the house handed over with the correct surface slope away from the house? If there is a slope or pooling problem, you need to rectify it ASAP. Did you have a recorded CCTV inspection of all stormwater and drain pipes prior to handover? Hi there - do you have any contacts that could assist with a cctv inspection of storm water and drain pipes? Do any building inspectors offer this service? Is it recommended prior to handover? Re: Faults appearing a year after building.What course of ac 11Aug 06, 2021 10:51 pm Metropolis Solutions do forensic plumbing investigations and are the go to people. If you do a forum search, their name will come up in several threads. Have a read of their website before contacting them. https://metropolis.melbourne/ I have always highly recommended that new home buyers have a forensic plumbing inspection prior to handover, particularly when building on reactive soil. In Victoria, about 50% of drain pipe installations inspected have been found to be non compliant and H1 is littered with with posts detailing major problems stemming from faulty installations. Again in Victoria, most probably more than 50% of all new home builds over many years have had non compliant roof/stormwater drainage. https://www.vba.vic.gov.au/news/news/20 ... fix-issues 3in1 Supadiverta.
