Building Dispute Practitioners Society At fixing stage in Morayfield the exterior appearance and waterproofing usually matter more than the interior fittings. We have found a rendered sill that does not extend far enough over the window, a control joint that was not cut properly, and an expansion joint that stops partway up the exterior wall. On the inside, the bathroom shower floor is not level and the vanity splashback is not fixed to the wall.

The joint should allow the house to move without cracking, and an uncut joint creates stress at the opening.
Yes. We check the meter box for the required sticker and record it if missing.
A thorough site inspection usually takes about two hours.
At fixing stage the joint can be cut out and replaced where the plans show, but later it becomes a rectification item.
The builder must rectify the issues before painting starts, and we recheck at the handover inspection.
