When to Begin - Voting the Competent and Worst Builders in Australia..?
The Bankrupt, Fugitive, and the Collapse of CompanyBillion Dollar Regime Toplace
from Oct 2023
A Bankrupt consultant turned our lives upside down threatening the safety of everyone in the area. Without due diligence, he began demolishing a major supporting wall on our property, the major load-bearing wall of our bedroom. At one stage he had constructed a hose from his roof diverting water into our studio, causing several thousand dollars damage to our property and undermining its structural integrity.
To compound matters, we through investigation found that the intermediate wall did not meet the legal fire rating, a major omission that threatened everyone's well-being. In spite of our urgent efforts to seek resolution the problem with the builder and contacting the council, we were informed the builder's inspector had already signed off on the construction, ignoring our concerns and leaving us vulnerable to fire.
In spite of getting a judgement in their favour and compensation for restitution, the emotional toll was immeasurable and created many unpleasant memories. They decided to sell their beautiful home, we mourned the loss of our award winning sanctuary, another victim of proper government oversight and dicey building practices. The lack of oversight and appropriate governance by government and local council allowed this tragedy to unfold, highlighting the need for greater responsibilities and protection for owners.
As we grapple with the effects of this experience, we are left to ponder: What recourse do homeowners have when their sanctuaries are made vulnerable by the carelessness of dodgy builders? {https://www.facebook.com/groups/1240633520160302,
