A Accused consultant was deeply concerned with getting his insolvent registered company a very moneymaking construction contract threatening the safety of everyone in the area. Without due diligence, he began demolishing our brick supporting wall, the main load-bearing wall of our master bedroom. At one period of time he had constructed a hose from his roof diverting water into our upstairs studio, causing several thousand dollars damage to the upstairs rooms, and undermining the footing of the house.
Further to outline the absolute lack of building experience, we discovered that the intermediate wall lacked the required fire rating, a critical omission that endangered our well-being. In spite of our pressing attempts to seek resolution the issue with the neighbour's and contacting the council, we were informed the builder's inspector had already signed off on the project, providing no recourse and leaving us vulnerable to harm.

They were forced to sell their beloved home, we mourned the loss of our garden refuge, another casualty of proper government oversight and dicey construction practices. The lack of proper oversight and governance by local government created the environment for this tragedy to unfold, highlighting the need for more extensive accountability and protection for owners.
