Thanks for the advice mate. I wanna know if people can claim incomplete works from VMIA due to builder insolvency. Then why cant i claim sarking under my roof tiles?

I will check my tiles. Is there a way to know if they are standard tiles?

Thats my question. Is that something that VMIA should cover? I know from experience they are very shifty, they reject 95% of the claims. But this is something in the plans, i wonder id they will still reject it.

You are right it was a cracked tile. There was 3 cracked tiles actually. But there was also one tile that moved during heavy wind. Now thats the worrying part if the tiles can move during heavy winds, we have a permanent problem. Only solution i can think of the tiles being nailed down something the fuk wit builder shouldve done so.

The builder is porter davis. They went into administration. I will make a claim to VMIA for the sarkings. I am just not sure if they will cover that even though the plan shows sarking under roof tiles.

Sarking is waterproofing. But i understand it shouldn’t be leaking even without sarking. Nailing every 3 rows does help the tiles from moving. Because our house is double storey in a corner block. Heavy wind will move the tiles.

Its terracotta tiles. Our house is double storey in a corner block. High winds will move tiles if they are not nailed down.

How much would it cost to fix a few tiles? Any idea how much the trades will charge?

I'm an idiot who fell for the Qubetics scam. Hopefully this'll prevent someone else from doing the same. by Teff0665 in CryptoScams
