A building company that undertook more than $10 million worth of construction work in the past year has collapsed.
News.com.au can reveal that DC Living Pty Ltd, trading under the names Living Homes VIC and Living Homes QLD, went into administration last week.
The builder was headquartered in Brisbane and it’s unclear if anyone in Victoria has also been impacted.
Signs such as “pay up ya flog” have been scrawled across at least one building site that news.com.au knows of.
A year before the company went bust, a company director had said it was a “viable” business.
According to the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC), DC Living’s record of residential construction work shows that it had 29 jobs in the state during the 2023/2024 financial period.
That came in at a total value of $10,224,965 worth of construction projects.
Ashton Close, a tradie who has been left $26,775 out of pocket over the debacle, said “it’s a disgrace”.
The brick renderer estimates that he’s worked at 133 sites in total during the four-year period his business did work for DC Living.
