Last year they did a awning at my house and it only lasted a few weeks before blowing away and took haff the roof with it. Cost over $ 20 k to replace and they told me to piss off. Since then a friend told me about another job they did where the posts were supposed to be over 1 meter deep and they fell over because they were only installed in 600 mm. They also did a job at my sons school that only lasted 4 months. Bunch of turds especially the owner kid who is manager. Mark I think is his name.

I know of several well known and respected Cairns contractors that have never won a job there because the projects were always awarded to little known inexperanced business or even worse notoriously unethical contractors whose reputations normally mean they are excluded from most local projects.<br /><br />Strange that Lend Lease took so long to work it out but good to see they now have acted to get rid of the rot like Serg and his good friend Rosco.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-27538285058028609202014-11-23T20:34:05.220+10:002014-11-23T20:34:05.220+10:00This sounds like Rosco ?

The people behind this unfounded allegation need to take a hard look at them self in the mirror.

On this - you have missed a major point in this article. There is no under table dealings because all substantive contracts are awarded to big fish corporations down south. The local guy is missing out. Not sure what point you are trying to make. Ultimately it is corporations supporting corporation and stuff the little guy.

As a local contractor try undertaking the process for quoting a Lend Lease job. More systems, insurances and paperwork than you can poke a stick at and you have to fork out membership dollars to be part of these mandatory systems with no guarantee on work.
