BODY CORPORATE

Building defects

A body corporate has a statutory responsibility to maintain common property. Building defects are a body corporate issue that simply cannot be ignored.

We have advised many bodies corporate on building defect issues, such as:

  • corroding steel columns;
  • water penetration;
  • concrete cancer;
  • incorrect waterproofing;
  • generally shoddy workmanship;
  • negligent construction techniques; and
  • leaching from building surfaces.

Commencing proceedings for a building defect dispute is not something to be undertaken lightly. Preparation and strategy are critical, as well as understanding the statutory timing and required corporate governance processes on the part of the body corporate.

Our team is well-versed in building defect claims and can help you navigate your dispute.
