Why do they need a Building Stages Inspection?
Are you representing a purchaser in the process of building their dream home? At BeSafe, we understand the critical importance of making informed decisions during the construction journey. Our Building Stages Inspections are tailored so that your clients are well informed about potential issues that could impact their investment in the long run. After all, many issues can be difficult and costly to fix once construction has been completed.
During the inspections, we may detect:
- Substandard work
- Part of the building left incomplete
- Issues related to timber pests
- Structural and non-structural faults
There are certain specifications for each of the six Stage Building Inspections:
With BeSafe’s Building Stages Inspections, we examine each critical phase of construction, leaving no room for uncertainty.
- Foundation Stage Inspection: Conducted before slab pouring.
- Frame Stage Inspection: After the completion of the frame, but before starting the internal-wall linings.
- Waterproofing/Lockup Stage: When external doors and windows are in, waterproofing and flashing are complete, and the property can be locked.
- Pre-Painting/Fixing Stage: Upon completion of construction, before painting.
- Practical Completion/Handover Stage: When the building and final cleaning process is over.
- Warranty Inspection: Within one year of the completion of the building, this inspection looks for non-structural flaws. This must be done to be eligible for a home insurance warranty.
When will my client’s report be ready?
When it comes to the well-being of your client’s investment, we understand that timely information is crucial.
Post-inspection, you can anticipate receiving a detailed inspection report within 24 to 48 hours. Alongside a thorough breakdown of the inspection findings, your client will receive accompanying photos highlighting any identified problem areas on the property.
