Getting a Melton South builder to act on a report
Writing, escalating and the Victorian route.
In short: A report only works if you use it properly. This is the sequence.
Send it in writing
Email the numbered list with a date you expect a response by.
Name the item
Quote the item number and the clause it fails, not a general complaint.
Allow a reasonable period
Then follow up in writing and keep the chain intact.
Escalate
The Building and Plumbing Commission dispute resolution service, formerly DBDRV.
Then VCAT
The Building and Property List, where an expert witness report is required.
Written by the Owner Inspections team from inspections carried out in Melton South. Licensed building practitioners, Building & Plumbing Commission registration CDB-U 53425.
