Your licensed building work contractor will hold a Supervisor's Registration qualification, which means that he or she is responsible for the quality of building work performed for you. Council building authorities may also carry out inspections and discuss building practices with your builder at various stages of the building work.
Many larger project builders will engage sub-contract builders to perform many or all of the trades associated with building your new home.
Remember, your domestic building work contract is between you and your principle builder, and not with any sub-contractor. Therefore you should always establish an understanding with your builder that, should you have a contractual concern relating to work performed by a sub-contractor, you will deal with him or her on the matter, and not with the sub-contractor.
It is the responsibility of your builder to oversee the building process. Final acceptance of work carried out by subcontractors is also his or her responsibility. On completion of the contract, the builder will certify that the work has been carried out to required standards.
