Building disputes NSW Fair Trading

Building disputes can be time-consuming. To make it as efficient for you as possible, here’s what you need to know about the entire process.

You must first register with the Fair Trading Tribunal and make an appointment with their investigator.

The assigned investigator will look into the building dispute and schedule a site inspection with both parties.

After which, the investigator will try to mediate a resolution between the two parties. If both parties fail to come to an agreement, then the matter will be referred to the NCAT for adjudication.

Pest Activity

When filing a complaint with the NCAT, you must consider the time limitations. Complaints that involve warranty breaches have a time limit of six years for major defects and two years for minor defects. For complaints involving the supply of goods and services, the time limit is within three years of the contract. Other claims will have a three-year time limit. If you fail to file the complaint within these time limits, the tribunal will not hear your case.

Compliance Checks

All complaints must have supporting evidence attached. This includes any agreements, contracts, receipts, invoices, Scott Schedules, or other documentation that will help to support your claim. If possible, you should also include any photographs or videos related to the nature of the building dispute.
