Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: 10 March 2026

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of the ninetary.com website and your engagement of Segval Pty Ltd, trading as Ninetary ("we", "our", or "us"), for building, renovation, and construction services. Our principal place of business is 12 Ebden Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189. By accessing this website or contracting our services, you agree to be bound by the terms set out below. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you should discontinue use of the website and refrain from engaging our services.

Acceptance of Terms

Your continued use of ninetary.com constitutes acceptance of these Terms and Conditions in their entirety. We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time, and any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date. It is your responsibility to review these terms periodically. Continued use of the website or our services after changes have been published signifies your acceptance of the revised terms.

Services Description

Ninetary provides residential and commercial building services throughout Melbourne and the greater metropolitan area. Our scope of work includes, but is not limited to, home renovations, extensions, knockdown rebuilds, bathroom and kitchen refurbishments, structural modifications, and general construction. The specific scope, timeline, and cost of any project are defined in individual quotations and contracts prepared for each client.

Content displayed on this website — including images of completed projects, service descriptions, and indicative pricing — is provided for general informational purposes. It does not constitute an offer, a guarantee of availability, or a binding commitment to deliver any particular outcome. Project specifications, materials, and finishes are subject to confirmation during the quotation and planning phases.

Quotations and Pricing

All quotations issued by Ninetary are valid for a period of 30 days from the date of issue, unless otherwise stated in writing. Prices quoted are based on the information available at the time of assessment, including site conditions, material costs, and the scope of work described by the client. Should unforeseen circumstances arise — such as concealed structural damage, hazardous materials requiring specialised removal, or significant changes to the agreed scope — we reserve the right to issue a variation to the original quotation.

Quotations are provided in Australian dollars and are inclusive of GST unless explicitly stated otherwise. Any variations to the agreed scope of work will be documented in writing and require client approval before additional work commences. We make every reasonable effort to hold quoted prices, but fluctuations in material or labour costs beyond our control may necessitate adjustments, which will always be communicated and agreed upon in advance.

Payment Terms

Payment schedules are outlined in the building contract executed between the client and Segval Pty Ltd. In accordance with standard industry practice and the Domestic Building Contracts Act 1995 (Vic), progress payments are typically structured around the completion of defined stages — such as base, frame, lock-up, fixing, and final completion. A deposit may be required upon execution of the contract, the amount of which will comply with the limits prescribed by Victorian legislation.

Invoices are payable within 14 days of issue unless an alternative arrangement has been agreed in writing. Late payments may attract interest at a rate of 2% per month on the outstanding balance, calculated from the due date until the date of receipt. Persistent non-payment may result in suspension of works and, where necessary, enforcement through legal proceedings.

Project Timeline

We are committed to completing every project within the timeframe agreed upon in the building contract. However, construction timelines can be affected by factors outside our reasonable control, including adverse weather conditions, supply chain disruptions, council approval delays, and variations requested by the client. Where such delays occur, we will communicate revised timelines promptly and work diligently to minimise the impact.

Liquidated damages or extension-of-time provisions, where applicable, will be governed by the terms of the individual building contract and relevant Victorian building legislation.

Warranties

All building work carried out by Ninetary is covered by the statutory warranties prescribed under the Building Act 1993 (Vic) and the Domestic Building Contracts Act 1995 (Vic). These warranties include, among others, that the work will be carried out in a proper and workmanlike manner, using suitable materials, and in accordance with all relevant building standards and regulations.

Structural defects are covered for a period of six years from the date of completion, while non-structural defects are covered for two years, as mandated by Victorian law. Warranties provided by manufacturers on specific products and materials — such as roofing, cladding, or appliances — are passed through to the client and are subject to the manufacturer's terms.

Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Segval Pty Ltd's liability for any claim arising from or related to our services is limited to the contract value of the relevant project. We shall not be liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental losses, including loss of profit, loss of use, or damage to property not forming part of the contracted works, except where such exclusion is prohibited by the Australian Consumer Law or other applicable legislation.

Nothing in these terms is intended to exclude or limit any rights you may have under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) that cannot be lawfully excluded.

Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Victoria, Australia. Both parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and any courts competent to hear appeals from those courts. Any dispute arising under or in connection with these terms or the services provided by Ninetary shall first be referred to mediation in accordance with the mediation rules of the Resolution Institute before either party may commence court proceedings, except where urgent interlocutory relief is sought.
