Australian homes are built in stages. The stages are defined in the building contract. Before making a progress payment for any stage you will want to know that the builder's work is up to standard. Our Quality Assurance Program will determine if the builder's work is satisfactory by conducting thorough on-site building inspections at any one, or all, of the various stages.

In our experience builders generally ignore requests from their clients for explanations or justification for what appears to the client to be defective work.

This service is ideal for those clients or anyone not in a position to monitor the daily progress of the new construction. To expedite the delivery of the QA Report it is handwritten on site by the Building Inspector and a copy immediately handed to both our client and the Building Supervisor, or left on site. This way any listed defects may be urgently rectified before the next stage of construction commences, or continues.

Here is a very small sample of what we inspect at the various stages of construction.

Waffle slab pre-slab

Soil profile, bored piers, site cut, site preparation.

Slab-on-ground pre-slab

Soil profile, siting, edge/stiffening beams.

Waffle/slab-on-ground reinforcement

Trench & slab mesh, steel bars, vapour barrier.

Strip footing

Soil profile, siting, reinforcement, stumpholes.

 

Structural frame

Lock-up

Fixing

Workmanship on doors, cupboards, architraves.

Waterproofing

The above list is indicative only and by no means exhaustive.

For clients requiring 4 or more QA inspections the initial consultation to discuss the above documents is free of charge.
