    We make no guarantees or warranties as to the performance, commercial practices or financial status of these firms or individuals. Nor do we endorse any of the workmanship, or services offered by the firms or individuals listed.

    It is a requirement that the PCBU/Developer undertake normal due diligence when selecting a contractor to ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, best practice, the associated land development agreement requirements such as work health and safety, technical standards, operational conditions and ethical conduct.
