Is this acceptable for a new build?
My townhouse has just reached practical completion and following my walkthrough and inspection, a lot of terrible work has been picked up. The workmanship on every part of the house is just poor and I’m almost regretting building.
I’ve noticed that the vertical edge on the left side of the house is not aligned. The drawing plan shows that the width of the edge should be the same on the top and bottom. Photos attached.
Site supervisor has told me that he doesn’t know what happened but it’s fine and won’t need to be fixed.
Is this acceptable? It’s not a structural problem but I can’t stop noticing it now and it’s bothering me.
Edit: Based in South Australia. Had an independent inspection done 5 days ago and builder proposed handover in 1 week from today. However, they won’t let me re-inspect the build again and said the supervisor will just go through my independent report at handover. Won’t tell me what they have and wont fix until after. They re-iterated there’s a 3 month defect period which I can enforce after handover.
