Building Surveyors are being scrutinized following the Lacrosse Apartment fire and Glen Waverly excavation collapse. This has caused excessive pressure in the industry to ensure conformance on all levels AND by all parties.
Grimbos Building Surveyors, have experienced a heightened number of calls from concerned neighbours in regard to adjoining property works; as well as an increase in audits by the VBA to ensure use of compliant products.
Building Surveyors are becoming increasingly vigilant to ensure examples like the quick spreading fire and excavation collapse do not re-occur. This is for the benefit of all parties involved in the project, from architects to councils, builders, owners and building surveyors, all of whom, play a part in ensuring compliance.
