FEEDBACK FROM Home Owners LIKE YOURSELF
NOT ALL BUILDING Inspectors ARE THE SAME
The Home Building Consultant doesn’t rely on checklists, nor does it restrict an inspection to a certain allocation of time. We take longer, we dive deeper and our inspection reports are genuinely comprehensive, ensuring your home is built in accordance with the National Construction Code and the relevant Australian Standards. Our meticulous attention to detail, ensures every violation is discovered and documented, going above and beyond to protect your investment. We also extensively review manufacturers guidelines and installation instructions as they often fall outside of the legislative limitations. No stone will be unturned, and when you choose the Home Building Consultant, you can build with confidence.
EXPOSING THE Truth WITH
CONSTRUCTION STAGE INSPECTIONS
A construction stage inspection conducted by the Home Building Consultant is completed with a meticulous attention to detail. We use industry leading tools and equipment during every construction stage inspection to ensure we identify all major and minor defects, as well as any notable safety concerns. Our detailed construction stage inspection reports will give you the confidence you need when building a new home.
DEFECTS CAN BE Hidden IN PLAIN SIGHT
It’s far to common that defects and non-compliant building works get overlooked because builders and tradespeople aren’t up to date with the latest requirements of the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant Australian Standards. You would think the Building Surveyor would identify issues, but sadly they only conduct four “mandatory” inspections throughout the construction period, rarely committing the time and attention to detail required to extensively review the completed works. As your Home Building Consultant, we conduct construction stage inspections with a meticulous attention to detail, for each and every component of the build. For example, there are at least 5 defects in the photo below, and on this project the relevant Building Surveyor had passed the frame inspection.
Incorrect bracing unit.
Incorrect Timber Lintel.
Bolts connecting SHS into Slab require Chemset.
Ply Brace requires additional fixings.
Floor level is not within tolerance.
