Precision Building Inspections - Rockingham

Stole these from the ABC page but this shows you why it’s so important to have your roof tie downs correctly installed on the tin roofs. This house is in Falcon which like most of us coped huge wind gusts over the last couple of days.

Please be careful who you engage to complete any work at your house.

We have a fresh warning for you - Dodgy door knockers back targeting WA homes with shoddy roof repairs and we need your help to track them down.

These conmen move from town to town using high-pressure tactics to push overpriced roof restoration jobs – often delivering little to no actual work. They also ignore the 10-day cooling off period for unsolicited work.

🔎 Help us track these travelling conmen down - Anyone who receives a knock at the door from traders offering roof restoration services should say ‘no’ and call Consumer Protection on 1300 30 40 54 or email [email protected]. We need information such as descriptions of offenders, vehicle registrations numbers or business names used, and CCTV or security camera footage would be helpful.

Our advice:
✅Always seek multiple written quotes to compare price and value
✅Research traders in advance by requesting references and viewing examples of previous work.
✅Paying by credit card as it potentially provides the protection of getting a chargeback if the goods or services aren’t delivered, unlike payments made via bank transfer or cheque which offer no such recourse

Iplex Typlex 1050 pipes – know the facts and your responsibilities Typlex 1050 pipes are considered a material fact and sellers and investment property owners should tell their agent and property manager if pipes are present at their property.

This made us laugh on a recent roof. The parapet wall cap should be supported underneath with timber framing on top of the bricks. It also should be slightly sloping so water can run off. We assume there are no supports under this. I suppose it is thoughtful of the builders to let us know its unsafe with their silicone message!

Nothing surprises us at Bunnings 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️😆

It's beginning to look alot like the time when people are taking their stupidity to the next level.

Here is a short video of things we find in roof spaces that usually form part of the structure of the home so in turn become "structural defects" for the sellers to fix before settlement.

Finally a win for the hundreds of clients left in limbo for years.

Our colleagues at Building and Energy have released information for Nicheliving customers, after the Building Services Board decided not to renew the building contractor registration of Projex Management & Construction Pty Ltd.

The Board's decision enables homeowners with incomplete or defective work to make a claim on their home indemnity insurance (HII) policies and consider other arrangements for completing their projects.
