Welcome back to Site Inspections. In this episode, we delve into the challenging circumstances of a homeowner who was left to grapple with multiple leaks and defects in a relatively new home.
This unit, one of four, is less than a year old. Yet, despite the home's recent construction, the homeowner has been dealing with an array of issues. From incessant leaks to unaddressed defects, the problems were numerous. The most perplexing part? The builder, who had even received an additional $100,000 from the homeowner to mitigate the economic pressures of COVID-19, vanished when asked to return and rectify the problems.
In this video, we conduct a thorough home inspection and highlight the key defects we uncovered. We hope this episode serves as an educational tool for those embarking on their own home building or inspection journey. From being aware of the importance of post-handover support from your builder, to knowing what defects to keep an eye out for, our aim is to equip you with the knowledge to navigate these potentially challenging scenarios.
So, join us as we shed light on this unfortunate scenario and provide tips on how to avoid such situations. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more insightful content. Let's go!

So dodgy builders building houses is one thing. How about actual building surveyors signing off on inspections. Good work man, keep uploading them videos.
@Nathanation88
@Nathanation88 Год назад
That’s right. How do they pass several stages of inspection with this crap! I think it has to do with the inspector not wanting to piss off the builder, and losing business. This is the downside to private certification. Many, if not most councils don’t offer inspection services anymore. I get that councils couldn’t keep up, or it was uneconomical, but there should be a system where the builder still has to go through the council, and the council assigns a random certifier. The only work the council has to do is vett the certifier/company when they apply to join; the system could be fully automatic thereafter. Increases accountability, tracking, enforcement, etc. Any time you’re found to have certified something dodgy, your ranking goes down, and you get assigned less jobs. Anything major, or too many bad certifications, then you lose the ability to work in that council area. Council conducts all inspections based on complaints of non-compliance submitted with a private certifier (non-compulsory) inspection report. Can’t keep builders honest if you have dodgy certifiers. The cost of rectification after completion is far higher than during construction.

Cafe staff, retail workers, nurses, hospitality workers and many more. All of them subjected to the highest scrutiny during the pandemic while working under minimum wage if you count the ungodly unpaid overtime hours. Many of them abused and spat on by customers for the slightest errors.. or no errors at all. In the meantime people in the housing industry are walking away with bags of cash blatantly screwing people over with barely any consequences. Most people in other professions would lose their jobs or even get booted from the industry if they made 10% as much errors as these people this frequently. People really need to be protesting about these things. This was even discussed on reddit, and several hundred people were ready to jump on board with protests. People are fed up spending their lives working overtime or multiple jobs to afford to buy a home, only to get take advantage of from every direction.

Even in 1978, regs were not complied with. We bought it in 1984. A lovely home. In 1994 ivy vines grew up into stormwater downpipe. Took me days to remove. After, I found the culprit - that being a non-connected downpipe. Then when selling in 1995, the buyers found one rafter beam to be of pine and cracking. The rest were fine and good hardwood.

People pay good hard earned money on the biggest investment of there lives to find out it leaks, it’s out of level, it doesn’t comply or meet code is a tragedy for them. What ever there paying you is worth the piece of mind. Well done!!

I have written to the Federal Treasurer today.

I'm not even angry....I AM CALLING FOR A NATIONAL HOUSING BUILDER AND THEY MUST ADHERE TO REPORTS BY A NEW BUILDING COMMISSIONER. Write to the Federal Treasurer and your State Premier. If we all yell at them hopefully they will hear us all. I want to nominate him "Site Inspector" for Australian of the Year. I think he's pretty awesome for showing up the dire situation of our housing market when we embarking on a massive Affordable & Social Housing Building Program. If they are delivering mould ridden homes with cracked roof beams, I think I'd feel safer in a 🏕🏕🏕

In 1998 we paid extra for a corner window and got two windows, along with a 2-page report of other faults. I'm glad to see nothing has changed. Yesterday an SA Electrical and Plumbing company was fined $150,000 for only 6 fake reviews online. Until they start handing out actual hurting fines of 10 times the fault increasing to twenty times if faults cost more than $50,000 to fix along with full rectification orders nothing is going to be changed. It was the last time I built a house. Never again. Details can be found on the Federal court website.

Maybe they don’t know a single thing about the building game….. naive to a more trusting and controlled build is what is assumed as all these builds have inspection criteria to meet as part of permits. Unless they are building without a permit then you have inspection stages. People are being scammed that’s the problem. And the common folk is naive to a scammer infested building industry.

Perfectly reasonable comment. Because Dodgy Bros Builders does work everywhere you need to budget in these building inspections. Foolish of you haven’t. IMHO. Near where I live what they were doing was in the slab, once the inspector had been to make sure the Reo in the floor was compliant they would pull out the Reo for the needy house. Then pour the slab with no reinforcing in the floor. Those houses are now condemned and only 5-10 years old. So be there when the slab is poured.

So, when you say a defect is urgent, requiring immediate repair. And you say it has to be completely demo'd. Can you tell us what happens most of the time? Does the builder, or the warranty company get another builder to make the repair? It seems EVERY bathroom you see has no vertical seperation, or no membrane or water proof. Do they EVER demo the entire bathroom of a occupied home, to make it right? Absolutely love every aspect of your videos. Please keep putting them up.

Are you seeing an increase in defects and short cuts taken by builders? I would imagine that as the economic problems deepen and even more pressure is put on construction companies and the builders they employ or contract, we will see more and more problems emerge. People whose businesses are collapsing, trying to cut corners and save costs at any opportunity, making houses that look superficially ok, but have serious underlying issues. That doesn't excuse them failing to deliver what they were contracted to do though, but I think it would go a long way to explaining what is going on. Based on this, I would expect that you will see more defects, and particularly more severe defects (especially if they involve substituting cheaper inferior materials, or omitting materials) going forward.

So if the gutter can have 10mm of water sitting in it , how does that work when the regs also call for a fall at all times. There seems to be an inconsistency in the regs!

That’s the tolerance from the Guide to standards and tolerances.

@@Siteinspections So the standards are faulty. A good example is a concealed gutter on a hip roof by passes the standards because they are in violation of those standards as they turn a corner without the installation of a sump which on houses with concealed gutters are not practical.

How is water going to get to the door way of that last bathroom? The shower yes should be fixed but to demo the whole lot seems excessive.

Council surveyor approved I bet. Ive never seen a council surveyor do an inspection, properly in 30 yrs. They are private surveyors contracted. This is why most builder cut corners. Then you have the client. The client says we need a cheap fix accept responsibility for it. Then shit themselves when they find an issue. Any job, especially wet areas a expensive. There's a disconnect between the regulations and clients understand. They can't wrap their head around why it cost so much.

One thing that confuses me with the water proofing regulations. Say you have a water stop installed at the door, a water stop at the shower area, and no floor waste in the bathroom. Where does the water go if the toilet or vanity leaks? If you only have a water stop at the door, the water should find it’s way to the puddle flange of the shower

You are allowed to deviate from the plans a little. Happens all the time. As long as the work itself is sound. Also is it the planning approval or the plans being worked off? Good work but just remember you gotta be realistic.

Are you able to do a follow up to this? Interested to know if the customer got part of the $100 variation back/if it was rectified by the builder/ customer took builder to court
