Certifiers, council and disputes in Edmondson Park NSW

Edmondson Park sits in Liverpool City Council, and the neighbouring suburb of Bardia sits in Campbelltown, which is worth knowing if you are comparing lots across the boundary. Development applications and the planning side belong to council. The build runs through a principal certifier who issues the construction certificate and the occupation certificate and performs the mandatory critical stage inspections between them. That is a compliance function performed for the certificate. Where a disagreement cannot be settled with the builder, NSW Fair Trading runs a dispute resolution service and NCAT hears residential building claims.

Liverpool City Council handles the planning approvals here.

Bardia, 1.4 km south, is in Campbelltown City Council instead.

Your principal certifier signs both the construction certificate and the occupation certificate.

Critical stage inspections serve the certificate, not your defect list.

NSW Fair Trading first, then NCAT, and NCAT usually wants an expert witness report.

FAQ

Certifiers, council and disputes in Edmondson Park NSW: common questions

A certifier passed my frame. Why did you find items?

Because they are two different jobs. A certifier confirms the work is good enough to certify at a milestone. We read it against your engineering, AS 1684 and the tolerances, and list what falls short.

Can your report be used at a tribunal?

It is normally where the file starts. A tribunal generally requires an expert witness report drawn to its practice note, which we prepare as a separate piece of work.

When do I involve Fair Trading?

Once the defects are with the builder in writing and a fair period has gone by. Dated paperwork is what the process turns on, so hold on to all of it.
