Site Access For Domestic Building Contracts
In this episode of the BILD Lab podcast, we explain how site access works once a building contract is signed and why homeowners are usually restricted from freely entering the site.
We discuss temporary fencing, safety and insurance considerations, and why builders often need to be present when homeowners attend the site.
We also cover how site access affects independent and private inspections, why timing inspections can be difficult, and how homeowners can plan ahead by communicating with their builder before stage completions.
This episode helps homeowners understand how to stay involved in their build without creating safety, insurance, or contractual issues.
This is not legal advice.

Introduction to Defective Building Works
In this episode of the BILD Lab podcast, we explain what defective work actually means under a Victorian domestic building contract.
We break down how defects are defined under the Domestic Building Contracts Act, how statutory warranties operate, and why work can be defective even if it looks acceptable, where it does not meet the standards or specifications set out in the contract.
This is not building or legal advice.
