At Trusted Home Inspections, we ensure that new construction properties adhere to Victorian Guide to Standards and Tolerances guidelines and Australian Standards. We believe in providing thorough structural building engineering reports that detail any existing structural defects or any non-compliance with the regulations set forth.
These reports are typically created for:
- First home owners
- Property investors
- Those with limited time or knowledge of the building process
- Property developers
- Property investment groups
- Owner builders.
There are 4 main building inspection stages in your new construction that reports are provided for.
Pre-Pour Slab
Trusted Home inspections will check that this stage is completed to the relevant construction document such as slab engineering. Check that it has been prepared in relation with the BCA and AS 2870, Standards and Tolerances 2015.
Frame Stage
During this stage we ensure that the frame has been erected to a satisfactory standard inline with accepted standards and practices outlined in the BCA and AS 1684.2 including; straightness of walls, window installations, structural load points, roof truss alignments, quality of workmanship to name a few.
Pre Plaster Stage
When it comes to pre-plaster inspection, there are a number of components that must be evaluated. The primary goal is to guarantee your building will be prepared for plaster and any flawed workmanship or damage can be fixed before being concealed by the plaster.
Fix Stage
Once the build has been plastered and the internal fixing has been completed is the time to do the fix stage inspection. Items that form part of the fix stage inspection include, doors being installed, architraves and skirting boards being fitted, internal cladding, built-in shelves, basins, baths, laundry troughs, sinks, joinery and cupboards have been fixed into position.
