It should be fine with a small amount of water but if that sits in there no. Wall needs fixing and the wood frame replaced. At this stage you should be sweet with fixing the leak and drying it out. 1

Regardless of how much rain it should not leak. Photos below show the poor workmanship finishing off.

Did you signed the paperwork over at the handover with it left like that? Don't get me wrong Pixy, but didn't you have someone come and look at the house for you before signing the paper work? You just shouldn't have to be dealing with this sort of sh*te with a new house. I feel for you man, I really do. I am cursing at the moment only thinking about you may be feeling right now as you deserve a break and a bit of good luck for the rest of the year...ffs. I hope it all gets sorted without you having to get pissed off or getting that blood pressure to high. 1

This morning I have sent a complaint to the Builders Professional Board. We have a good friend who is a lawyer will be speaking to her this arvo for advice and who she would recommended. The builder and his side kick was here going through our list of fixes and just left. So two faced it's sooooo funny, nice as pie. Before they knocked they where checking out the safety issues with the front steps, they know. I watch them on the cameras again very funny. They inspected the water leak and said they get someone out to add flashing along the whole wall...........GOOD!! Should have been done in the first place. Lazy MOFO's. Agree need a very big break from everything and think this year will be better, has to the last 2 years have been sh1t. Im also trying to start my own business this year. Ive registered business name and got ABN, so that's a start. These photos are of the same area and they know they have to cut them down below the house line so I'm able to concrete over at a later date.

Only because I sent them the photos of the water leak in the garage otherwise who knows when they would have came out. One was the laundry drain kept over flowing and flooded the floor when we used the sink. They asked us what we did for this happened. Told them from time to time we have to soak some cloths. They opened the drain and pulled out a heap of sh1t that tradies put down the drain. Who the fark does that. The dark grey stuff is Tile grout. 1
