Permits, council and building disputes in Werribee VIC
Werribee is in the City of Wyndham, which handles planning permits and property information. Building permits and the occupancy permit come from a registered building surveyor, and disputes with a builder go to the Building and Plumbing Commission before VCAT.
Raise any defect with the builder in writing first, attaching the report.
If that stalls, use the BPC dispute resolution service (formerly DBDRV).
VCAT's Building and Property List hears what is not resolved.
Domestic Building Insurance applies where the builder dies, disappears or becomes insolvent.
The Building Act sets a 10 year limit for building claims from the occupancy permit.
