Not all builders meet the strict criteria to become a Registered Master Builder. It is not enough to be merely Trade Qualified.
To be a Registered Master Builder, building experience, trade or professional qualifications and practical management experience are assessed. Workmanship is inspected and previous clients contacted, to ensure the applicant's work is of a high standard and has satisfied clients' expectations.
In addition, applicant's must provide evidence of financial responsibility with written references from their bank, accountant and building material suppliers. Re-certification of members occurs regularly, with checks on financial viability and more importantly on workmanship.
When engaging a Registered Master Builder for a new home or for alterations & additions work, whether built under a full contract or a labour only contract, a Master Build 7-Year Guarantee covering loss of deposit, non-completion of the work, defective workmanship & defective materials, will be offered by the Registered Master Builder (conditions apply).
As Registered Master Builders we offer you:
- A proven track record in building and business
- Master Build Guarantees on residential work with a contract price of $25,000 or more
- Peace of mind, formal investigation and complaints settlement procedures are in place to protect you
- The protection of consumer friendly Building Contracts
- Full support and backup from the member's local association and the national Registered Master Builders Federation
