What our inspectors find in Wyndham Vale VIC
Wyndham Vale handovers we attend keep turning up the same groups of items: a shower leaking when run, cracked and broken roof tiles, weep holes too close to the ground, stormwater pipes uncapped and silt pits full of soil, and joints left unsealed. At a reinspection several weeks later, cracked tiles, an open pipe, unsealed joints and the missing termite notice were still there.
Roof tiles: cracked tiles and broken underlaps, plus overhang beyond 65mm.
Drainage: uncapped pipes, soil in silt pits, debris in gutters and ponding.
Weep holes: clearance to finished ground below the minimum.
Sealing: articulation joints, window gaps and service penetrations open.
Reinspection: several items reported fixed were not.
