Australian Expander / Container homes help and information group

Alex • 9 hours ago • O

Clayton Bielby, can Expandify finish the homes your customers have paid for?

We searched your QBCC record today and it now shows a structural direction to rectify that hasn't

been complied with. It also still shows "No Current Nominee", so there's no licensed person listed

to supervise your building work.

Meanwhile, your website appears to be repositioning Expandify towards wholesale supply, while

customers are still waiting on homes they paid you to supply and install. Many of them, including

us, for more than a year.

We've been trying to find a solution through our solicitor for months and we're still no closer to

getting my mum into her home. I know other families are in the same terrified boat.

So, Clayton some questions:

• Can Expandify pay its billsand fund completion of its existing contracts? Your own appointed

representative, Tim Austin, told us Expandify might go under.

• Who is actually going to supervise, install and finish these homes?

• What is the structural direction about and why hasn't it been complied with?

• Where is your focus right now? On a new wholesale business, or on finishing the homes your

customers have already paid for?

These are people's life savings. We deserve answers, so why not come and clear this up here or at

least directly with your customers?

That isthe problem going with companies that claim one thing but can't actually for

fill. Buy cheap, get cheap. Stick with Australian built companies. Class 1a means it's

built to Australian build code. If it's a Chinese import you'll be paying twice.
