Ensure a Quality Build with Stage Inspections by Informed Building Inspections
Stage Inspections have long been popular in the Southern states and are now becoming an essential part of building a new home in Queensland. These inspections are carried out at five critical stages during your construction project, ensuring that work meets the highest standards outlined in the Australian Standards and the QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide.
At Informed Building Inspections, we offer the following Stage Inspections:
Stage 1: Pre-Slab Concrete Pour Inspection
Before the concrete slab is poured, we ensure that the foundation is ready and compliant, preventing any potential issues down the track.
Stage 2: Frame Inspection
We check the structural integrity of the framing to ensure everything is aligned and secure. This step is vital to make sure your home’s skeleton is solid and meets all building codes.
Stage 3: Lock Up/Pre-Plaster Inspection
At this stage, we make sure that the external and internal framing is secure, and all required elements are in place before the plaster goes up.
Stage 4: Fixing Stage/Waterproofing/Pre-Paint Inspection
Before painting begins, we inspect waterproofing measures and ensure that all fixtures and fittings are correctly installed. This inspection is crucial in identifying any potential issues before they are covered up.
Stage 5: Handover Inspection/Practical Completion Inspection
Before you take possession of your new home, we conduct a thorough final inspection to ensure everything is complete and to your satisfaction. This step is critical for addressing any defects or issues.
