The certifier

A private building certifier inspects at critical stages so the certificate of occupancy can be issued. This is a regulatory task that does not involve checking the work for the client.

The QBCC Standards

Stage inspections are measured against the approved drawings, engineering and the QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide.

Warranties

The QBCC Home Warranty Scheme provides cover under the Queensland Building and Construction Commission Act 1991.

Insurance

Work must be done by a licensed contractor. The QBCC can investigate complaints and enforce compliance.

If a defect appears

Put the items to the builder in writing first, then contact the QBCC, then apply to QCAT if needed.
