Slab Stage Inspection (Pre-Pour)
This crucial inspection occurs just before your concrete slab is poured, typically the day prior. We meticulously check the base, piers, steel, and formwork to ensure every element is correctly constructed and perfectly ready. This vital step safeguards your foundation, preventing costly future issues and ensuring the long-term integrity of your home.
2
Frame Stage / Fixing Stage
At this stage, we thoroughly assess the completed wall and roof framing to ensure your home’s structural framework is built to last. Our inspection checks for quality workmanship and strict adherence to Australian Standard AS 1684 and the NCC’s Building Code of Australia—giving you confidence in the strength and safety of your build.
3
Pre-Plaster / Lock-Up Stage Inspection
This essential inspection takes place once your home is secure and all services and insulation are in, but before the plasterboard goes up. It’s your last opportunity to ensure the quality and integrity of the walls, roof frame, and installed services before everything is concealed—protecting you from hidden issues and giving you confidence in the build.
4
Handover Stage / PCI Inspection
The final, crucial inspection before handover. This is your last chance to identify any defects, incomplete work, or adherence issues. We ensure all findings are documented, so your home is built to standard and made to last.
