Certifiers, council and disputes in Gledswood Hills NSW

Gledswood Hills sits in Camden Council. Council handles development applications and the planning side. The build itself runs through a principal certifier who issues the construction certificate at the start and the occupation certificate at the end, and carries out the mandatory critical stage inspections in between. That is a compliance function performed for the certificate, and it is not a defect list written for you. Where a disagreement cannot be settled with the builder, NSW Fair Trading runs a dispute resolution service and NCAT hears residential building claims.

FAQ

Certifiers, council and disputes in Gledswood Hills NSW: common questions

A certifier passed my frame. Why did you find items?

Because we are answering a different question. A certifier confirms the work is good enough to certify. We measure it against your engineering, AS 1684 and the tolerances, and list what falls short.

Does the report work at NCAT?

It is usually the starting document. A tribunal generally requires an expert witness report drawn to its practice note, which we prepare separately.

When should I involve Fair Trading?

After the defects have gone to the builder in writing and a reasonable time has passed. The process runs on dated documents, so keep both.
