Privatised building inspections are a fucking disgrace. I didn’t even realise there were no licencing requirements. I thought they had to be engineers at the very least.

    It’s the cost of materials and labour that is the biggest contributing factor in driving building prices up. Any solution to the shit build problem would drive prices up. More stringent licencing and better enforcement would still drive prices up as it will reduce the labour pool. There’s no two ways around it. We as a society seem to have forgotten that you get what you pay for.
