Description
This determination arose from the decision of the authority to refuse to issue a code compliance certificate for a partly re-clad 12-year-old house because it was not satisfied that the building work complied with certain clauses of the Building Code.
The matter determined was whether the authority was correct to refuse to issue a code compliance certificate.
It was considered:
- Whether the remaining original external claddings to the house complied with Clause B2 Durability and Clause E2 External Moisture;
- Whether the original building complied with the remaining clauses relevant to this house;
- Whether the elements that make up the original building work complied with Clause B2 Durability, taking into account the age of the house.
This determination was limited to the remaining elements of the construction and did not include the new cladding work.
