Civil and Administrative Tribunals
NCAT | VCAT | QCAT | ACAT | SACAT | TASCAT | SAT | NTCAT
Household building works don’t always go to plan. Clear resolutions are not always possible without taking matters to an arbitrator. Each Australian state has its own Civil and Administrative Tribunal to raise disputes on contractual matters, defective or incomplete work.
For waterproofing works, Waterproofing Integrity are able to assist with varying levels of involvement to assist in proceedings for builders, asset owners or other related stakeholders. From a desktop review of works to onsite inspections and testing to expert witness proceedings there are varying levels of engagement that we can offer subject to the situation and requirements.
