It is the deck systems fault.

Cut it down and fit it. Or was that not in your price. That's why the client gave you the job.

Doing it like that saves the contractor a lot on that expensive material

Your leaving out the competition. Who are working for beer money. And are subsidised buy centerlink in most cases. So its a bit out of pocket to say your getting most jobs.

You left out the most relevant piece of the puzzle. Being the cheapest guy to beat the "beer money bandit's". As soon as you are priced to reflect your professionalism. They will know not to call you again. Been there done that.

Good content and editing

Really enjoying your videos. Greetings from far north Queensland

Tile the bathroom yourself. Lay accoustic backed vinyl yourself, put the trims on yourself, install a shower screen yourself - all very easy to do, and would cost under 10k. All you really need trade wise is a sparky. Theres no excuses, just get it done man, youll be ok to do it.

$3750 plus

This paying for services in advance in Australia for everything must stop. If they need proof of means to cover costs, we must start insisting an escrow agreement. Escrow is a legal or financial agreement in which a third party holds money, property, or other assets for two parties that are in the process of completing a transaction. There is just far too much poor and pathetic workmanship in the building industry and far too many businesses on the verge of bankruptcy to risk your hard-earned cash.

I assume you have not paid him for work not yet done. Hire another builder. Let the existing one know. He was probably too cheap that is why he has gone bust. I would argue you should have paid more anyway to reflect the true cost of the build. So put that into finishing it. Talk to the plumber sub to see what he is owed if anything and what it would cost to finish. Same for electrician. the door and cupboards you should be able to finish. Stuff happens.

Is Escrow a thing in Aus?

Sad story mate but you aren't the first and won't be the last no doubt. It's pathetic the state of things these days and at least you are skilled enough to sort some of this stuff yourself. I am about to have a bathroom renovation completed and the demo guys after rejecting an offer for us to move it, damaged both corners of our buffet cabinet. The gyprocker decided to make a 1200 long cut with an ANGLE GRINDER inside our house and as you imagine filled the whole place with dust. The first coat of waterproofing that was done missed so many spots it would have been useless as well as them walking waterproofing boot prints onto our floor. After I painted the ceiling with aqua block as that was my job the tiler punched a hole through it and left at least 3 to 4 other dents or black marks. Then the shower screen guy flung the front door open and punched a door knob sized hole in the wall where I had recently patched it and painted the whole wall. Frustrating as hell when you are paying 20k for a modest bathroom but still not as frustrating as the situation you have been left in.

Sadly I've had my builder have their licence suspended recently... Well, I'm going in for Owner Builder now, as don't want to deal with the builders any more. We are only at frame stage, so lot of work ahead, but hey I think there is opportunity here to take more control of the build (I'm a project manager by trade), organise tradies, supplies etc, supported by a building inspector to provide guidance on the process, and get the job done right! Also helpful I have a neighbour who is also currently building and happens to be doing it as owner builder.. ! Are you Sydney based?

That sucks mate the industry has really gone to shit i hear these horror stories a lot best of luck in the future

To be honest, I've seen a lot worse than that. I've lived in a lot worse. Go to your bank. Have a chat with them. They will help you. Good luck.

Liked your video. I think the insurance covers you for the EXTRA cost of completion. So for example if $ 100,000 of work left in your original contract, and it costs you $ 150,000, then you should be covered for the $50k's up to maximum of $ 200k's. BUT.... if your original contract was too low for the real value of the works being done, you may not get the full $200k's maximum. Frankly, to my eyes, most of the completed works are fairly OK. And yes, you need to get a tiler for the bathroom, cabinetmaker for kitchen etc.... but you in the trade; ask around, you'll quickly get some recommendations. Your GREATEST problem will be getting your electrics and plumbing completed AND SIGNED OFF. I'd be suggesting you track down the original plumber and electrician. Do a deal ( you might have to pay them overdue invoices ) and get to complete the works. Ditto, if completing yourself, you'll need to transfer the Building Permit into your name. And before I forget, track down the guy who did the bathroom water-proofing. You'll probably need a certificate for the works done. ( and if it were my house - I'd put more waterproofing in the bathroom, it seems to be the bare minimum ). Re-interating, yes lots of little things to complete, but the bones of the house actually look OK.

Cowards. Karma train comes hard

Thank you for the honesty. It will definitely help others. Best of luck on the next step. You seem like you are very capable of getting through it.

How did you, a qualified carpenter let some of that bad work pass??

Curious to know what you charged for all this on this job ?

Hi bro, very nice videos. New subscriber here. I actually look forward to them now. How about a video with how you quote/cost a job especially with property agents/managers. Thanks bro and keep this up. You're on point with your stuff. 👌

Great advice, well done. Thank you for videos. Just discovered your channel. Now subed. Ian.

Top level. Concrete sidewalks, toilet installation, 16x50 decks done right, 9 lights fixtures changed, screen doors installed, tileing and installing a Schluter showers, installing custom kitchen cabinets, leveling floors and stairs in a 100 year old house's, pointing brick, changing kitchen faucets, refinishing hardwood floors, installing counter tops, adding bathrooms in an unfinished basements and lots of crown molding

The most Australian part of this video was that drinking on the job wasn't allowed 'anymore'
