On November 18, 2022 I had an independent building inspector conduct a Waterproofing/Fix audit of Henley’s work. What follows is a copy of that report, along with some of my comments and observations.
Please note, the following reports should not be copied or downloaded in any way.

The report
These first items were part of an even larger problem with the weatherproof sarking dating back to September 2022. If you have been reading my monthly updates this has been discussed before. In fact, those discussions led Henley to attempt to block my access to the site.
If you read the previous Audit Report you will notice that many of the defects from that report remain outstanding.
Notes and the obligatory disclaimers.
Henley's response
It’s been almost 2 months since Henley received a copy of the audit report and as at the date of publication they have not responded. Given the importance of some of the defects identified, corrective action and evidence of that action should have already been provided to me.
Summing up
The audit report references the Victorian Building Authority’s Guide to Standards and Tolerances, this document is a useful reference when you read this report and in dealing with your own builder
Many of the defects identified in this report and the previous one have been covered over which makes it difficult, if not impossible for me to check. Bear this in mind before you choose Henley as your builder.
