At the slab level, the foundation of your future home is inspected in complete detail. This stage comprises an in-depth assessment of the property’s foundation, starting from steel layout for slabs and beams, plumbing layout, termite barriers to protect against infestations, and even foam work. Even though these elements cannot be seen with the naked eye once construction has finished, they provide a robust base for building your dream house.
When buying a new home, this frame-level inspection will ensure your house frames meet all structural requirements. Our experienced inspectors will thoroughly check the vertical plumb, top and bottom plates, straightness of wall framing, nogging, and connection with the ceiling frame.
Plus, we look after any ties, trusses, column beams, lintels, doorways and windows for nailing accute design standards, termite barrier installation, service penetration and more items that play a pivotal role in forming the framework of your dream home.
A lock-up stage inspection is a thorough check for any flaws in your building – from brickwork to roofing, fascias to electricals, data cabling and plumbing work. All elements include door/window installation features, gutters and drainage systems, downpipes, windows and doors; insulation layers; even the weep holes. Our experts ensure every detail conforms with all relevant standards so you can be safe knowing that your home has been inspected at its finest levels.
The fixing stage will prepare everything from doors and windows to architraves and skirting boards for that perfect finish. Plasterboard needs to be installed properly with straight lines, right angles and joints all perfectly aligned. Smoke alarms need checking before plumbing or electrics are added according to the plans. You must ensure that your staircase is complete with firm-fitted balustrades, meeting safety regulations.
This is the final inspection stage, where the builder has completed most of the new home construction and is ready to hand over the keys. You must ensure that the final finish follows the standards, guidelines, and expectations, such as joinery installation, paint finish, plumbing connections, durable notice in the meter box for termite barrier installation, and more. You must also check that the external finishes like façades and garage doors look pristine, and the list goes on – after all, it’s a new house you’re ready to live in now.
