What a great contribution to where the #MakingBetterBuildings conversation is in NSW these days. Since the quest to stop leaky buildings this mantra is now becoming core for all buildings - not just residential. The built assets that should be expected will be more fit for purpose, compliant and resilient. #Previte's 5 top reasons to avoid leaky buildings speak for themselves. The cost of getting these things right at the outset is always cheaper than having to do them again and again in a building's early life. Previte will have many powerful examples of what not to do and the consequences, having provided expertise to remediate buildings only 4 to 6 years old in #ProjectIntervene Hopefully these lessons will continue to inform #BestPractice #AustralianStandards #NCC and become the minimum inspection standards required by insurers offering 10-year defect liability insurance #LDI 👷♂️

When was the last time you thought about or looked in your attic or your crawl space? 🧐 Your attic and crawl space gives you access to some of the different systems in your home. We build crawl spaces and attics a little differently and we’re proud of that! Our crawl spaces are encapsulated and conditioned, which means they are sealed from the dirt and foundation walls, and they are heated and cooled along with the rest of the house. This provides additional energy efficiency! ⚡️👏 Our encapsulated crawl spaces do not have open vents, so pests like spiders and small critters are unable to get into the crawl space. The mechanical fan operates constantly to ventilate the space and remove moisture from the air, eliminating the conditions for mold to grow. Moving up to the attic, we add extra insulation and roof vents. This helps to keep the temperatures more comfortable in the house as well as the attic and keeps your system from having to work so hard. 📲 Head to our blog to learn more about how we’re thinking of all the ways to make your house more comfortable, clean, and efficient, even in ways that you may never see ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gi-mpeMG #RiverwoodHomes #BuiltByRiverwood
