Important boundaries
This service is not a guaranteed diagnosis.
Where the main matter is defective workmanship, warranty responsibility or a builder/trade disagreement, see Defect, Warranty & Dispute Guidance.
Clarification
Your service includes one brief clarification question submitted within 7 days after your advice is issued, provided it relates to the original matter reviewed. New issues or materially expanded matters may require a separate Build Advice service or assistance elsewhere.
Turnaround
Once Build Advice has enough information to review your matter, we'll provide an estimated completion time. If further information is needed, that estimate may be paused or revised.
