Helping Home Owners & Builders Resolve Building Disputes Quickly, Professionally & Fairly

Building disputes are one of the most stressful experiences for homeowners, builders and property owners. Whether the issue is poor workmanship, delays, unfinished work, or disagreement over variations, getting the right expert advice early can save time, money, and unnecessary conflict.

At Awesim Building Consultants, we specialise in building dispute services across Sydney and throughout New South Wales. With more than 35 years of building and construction experience, we provide accurate assessments, independent reporting and expert guidance to help resolve disputes efficiently — often preventing matters from escalating to NCAT or court.

✅ Why Building Disputes Happen

Building disputes can arise for many reasons, including:

  • 🚫 Defective or non-compliant construction work
  • 🚫 Waterproofing and structural failures
  • 🚫 Cost disagreements and variation disputes
  • 🚫 Incomplete or abandoned work
  • 🚫 Misunderstandings between builder and homeowner
  • 🚫 Delays or extensions of time issues
  • 🚫 Poor communication or documentation
  • 🚫 Breaches of the Home Building Act 1989 (NSW)
  • 🚫 Failure to follow NCC, BCA or Australian Standards
  • 🚫 Builder insolvency or bankruptcy

Regardless of the cause, an independent building consultant is crucial for identifying the facts and guiding both parties toward a fair solution.

✅ Our Building Dispute Services
