At one stage he had constructed a hose from his roof diverted water into our upstairs studio, causing several thousand dollars damage to the upstairs rooms, and undermining the footing of the house.
To compound matters, we discovered that the intermediate wall lacked the required fire rating, a critical omission that threatened our safety. Despite our pressing endeavours to rectify the problem with the neighbour's and contacting the council, we were informed the builder's inspector had already signed off on the construction, providing no recourse and leaving us vulnerable to harm.
In spite of getting a judgement in their favour and compensation for restitution, the emotional toll was abysmal and created many unpleasant memories.

The lack of proper oversight and appropriate governance by government and local council created the environment for this tragedy to unfold, heightening the demand for greater accountability and protection for owners.
