Stage 4
Fixing & Waterproofing Inspection
Fixing and Waterproofing are essentially two separate stages of the build. We carry these two stages together to cut the client’s cost of inspection. This is the last opportunity to inspect the home prior to painting and tiling. Fixing stage includes checking the plaster boards, cornice, doors frames, architraves and skirting boards and the joinery has been installed (kitchen, vanity and internal stairs etc), and waterproofing of all wet areas. This is the stage before you will pay the last building progress payment.
Stage 5
Practical Completion Inspection (PCI) or Final Building Inspection
The ultimate 1,050+ point defect inspection holding volume builders strictly accountable for cosmetic finishes, paint blemishes, plumbing fixtures, and safety rectifications.
