If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I called Glen today as I was concerned with how the builder was rectifying an issue with how our showers were installed. We had established this week that our builder from 3 years ago who renovated our bathrooms had not followed code amd installed the incorrect flange while also not cutting and gluing the pipes. Our pipe from the shower fell out which uncovered the issue. I had a challenge with the builder accepting the issue but eventually he sent his plumber on site who agreed it was all done incorrectly and the builder agreed to rectify it. We asked the builder to outline how they were going to rectify and ensure the waterproofing and run off was being done to code. The explanation wasn’t satisfactory and they went ahead with a localised solution, see picture attached. Not being an expert but I could clearly see the rectification process was not appropriate to resolve the issue and have appropriate waterproofing to code so I sought out some expert independent advice and that’s when I called Glen. Sent him the details and all the pictures on the issues and he said he would set out an email for me to send to the builder. But Glen went one step further and called our builder and explained what they were doing was not correct, the possible implications of that and explained to them what they should be doing. Glen got the builder to agree and has subsequently sent a scope of work to the builder on what exactly needs to be done in a step by step method. What an absolute legend Glen is and he wouldn’t accept any payment for doing this. If you are in a similar scenario, then I couldn’t recommend Glen enough.

Stephen, thank you sincerely for taking the time to share such a detailed and generous review.

I’m very pleased I could provide the independent building advice you needed and help clarify the correct rectification method with your builder. Shower drainage and waterproofing defects can have serious long-term consequences if they are not properly addressed, so it was important that the proposed work dealt with the underlying installation issues—not merely the visible problem.

Thank you also for promptly supplying the photographs and background information. This allowed me to assess the situation, speak directly with the builder and prepare a clear, step-by-step scope of works for the rectification.

It was my pleasure to assist, and no payment was necessary. I hope the work now proceeds correctly and gives you confidence that your bathrooms will be properly repaired.

Thank you again for recommending Glen and Awesim Building Consultants. Your kind words are genuinely appreciated.

I highly recommend Glen from Awesim Building Consultants. From the moment I spoke with Glen, I knew he was very experienced and well versed in the NCAT process, particularly when it comes to issues arising from failed bathroom waterproofing. Glen provided clear, practical and realistic advice throughout the process. His knowledge and understanding of the technical and tribunal requirements gave me a lot of confidence in how to approach my matter. His quote was detailed, reasonable and extremely clear about exactly what was covered, which I really appreciated. As reflected in the other reviews here, I can confidently recommend Awesim Building Consultants to anyone facing an NCAT building dispute, particularly if you require an Expert Witness Report or Scott Schedule. Thanks Glen for your professional and practical assistance.

Sometimes, you don't just need a report - you need someone who can guide you. Glen is an expert consultant who was super helpful, honest, and gave me advice which I value so much. The pragmatic side of humans is losing to business greed, but Glen was so realistic in his approach that I had to write him this review. Thank you, Glen, for your guidance. I would definitely recommend him if you are seeking an expert consultant with genuine expertise and honest guidance

Thank you for your review, I can not believe that a builder sold you there display home, that has faulty floor joist installation. This builder would have failed trade school.
In this matter the builder failed to install floor joists to support the perimeter sheet flooring in all the wet areas, causing the waterproofing membrane to fail.

Can't be bothered to even return phone calls or answer multiple enquiries. I guess the only positive here is it's better to find out that they have terrible customer service before committing to paying them a lot of money....

Thanks so much for your patience and for sharing your experience—
Our office phone number is 1800 293 746, our website is www.awesim.com.au and our office places all calls on a spreadsheet, and your name is not on our call list, so you must have us confused with another company. You have not called, emailed or completed any online enquiry forms which we have all our contact details on our website.

Glen Sim from AWESIM Building Consultants is an experienced private building inspector with a wealth of knowledge within the building industry. We were provided his details by a friend as we were building for the first time. So far our experience with Glen has been excellent. To date; 1. Glen’s inspection reports are high quality including detailed explanations and photos 2. Detailed inspection reports are received within a timely manner (1 to 2 days after the inspection) 3. They are very reasonably priced 4. Glen contacts you after the report is complete to provide suggestions and solutions if minor or major issues arise. I would not hesitate to recommend Glen to anyone who requires a private building inspector.

We engaged Glen’s services to prepare an Expert Witness Report for a building dispute matter in NCAT. Glen conducted a thorough inspection of the property and picked up defects that we hadn’t noticed. The Expert Witness Report Glen prepared was professional and comprehensive. Glen took the time to help us through the NCAT process and no question was too small or insignificant for him to answer. Glen has continued to support us throughout the process even after the work order was given to the builder. Contact Glen if you want someone with a great knowledge of the building industry and the Australian standards, experience attending NCAT, and someone who genuinely cares about his clients. Thanks Glen!
