Warranty & Insurance Claims
Building warranty and insurance claims under Victorian legislation.
Building Warranty & Insurance
Victorian law requires domestic building work over a certain value to be covered by building warranty insurance. When a builder dies, disappears, or becomes insolvent, this insurance provides a safety net for home owners to claim for defective or incomplete work.
Sterling Law Group has extensive experience in pursuing building warranty insurance claims, dealing with insurers, and representing clients in disputes over coverage and quantum.
Statutory Warranties
Under the Domestic Building Contracts Act 1995, statutory warranties are implied into every domestic building contract. These warranties cover matters including compliance with plans and specifications, suitability for purpose, quality of workmanship, and use of suitable materials. We advise on and enforce these warranty rights.
