We have a low performing Strata Managing Company which causes enormous delay on even minor repair works needing. When tradesmen engaged they will provide 2 x quotes but we found them always extremely expensive compared to us contacting people from eg . Hi-Page..

Amongst our Owners Corp we have several professional tradesmen who can provide services but again us EC have some concern with conflict of interest etc. However for real minor repairs or works not requiring any warranty or insurance such as placing signs in our basement drilling and fixing or replacing little tiles on the side of courtyard, we would like to engage our own team of guys with experience to conduct these repairs. Especially comparing to engaging other tradesmen from normal source, including obtaining materials and required tools and considering basic hourly rates the option to utilise inhouse team could prove to be much effective, faster and certainly more economical. Again we would only consider to engage them in works not requiring warranty and insurance.

Is there any proper ways to make this happen? If so what would be also some precautions we need to take?

Has any of you guys have any case like this ?
