They Ripped Up My Backyard and Left It Unsafe

One family wrote that their contractor tore up the backyard, then left it with no safety fencing and building rubbish everywhere. It took more than 40 hours for anyone to come back, and even then they only installed half a safety fence.

For a home with kids or pets, that's frightening.

Your yard is still your home

While a fence or retaining wall is being built, your backyard becomes a work site. But your family still lives there. Open post holes, exposed edges and piles of old timber are real hazards.

What a safe site looks like

• Open holes are covered or filled at the end of each day.
• Excavations near a drop are barricaded.
• Old materials with nails or sharp edges are removed or stacked safely.
• You're told which areas to keep kids and pets away from.

Questions to ask

1. How will you keep the site safe overnight?
2. Will there be any open excavations?
3. When will old materials and rubbish be removed?
