Compliance With Australian Standards and Building Codes
Completed By Experienced Inspectors
Why Practical Completion Inspections Matter
A practical completion inspection is a final check done once construction is mostly finished and the builder is asking for the last payment. It ensures everything is up to scratch and in line with the contract specifications. This is your opportunity to identify any defects or incomplete work that needs fixing before you sign off and hand over that final payment.
Who Choose A Practical Completion Inspection
Identifies Defects and Incomplete Work
Even the best builders can miss things. We'll spot any issues, from cosmetic problems like poor paintwork to more serious concerns like structural defects or incorrect installations.
Ensures Compliance with Standards
Our inspectors are trained to check your home against all the relevant Australian standards and building codes. This ensures that the builder has followed all the necessary regulations and that your new home is safe and built to last.
Saves You Money
Identifying issues before you move in can save you money in the long run. It's much easier (and cheaper) to fix things before you've made the final payment.

Frequently asked questions
Let's answer some frequently asked questions about practical completion inspections on the Sunshine Coast.
A practical completion inspection is a thorough check of your new home before you make the final payment to the builder. It identifies any defects, incomplete work, or non-compliance with Australian standards and building codes.
The inspection should be booked once the builder considers the property finished and requests the final payment. This is typically when all major construction work is completed, but before you’ve signed off and moved in.
While you can look for obvious issues, a professional inspector has the expertise to identify problems that may not be immediately visible or known to someone without a construction background. Our inspectors are trained to spot issues that could lead to costly repairs in the future.
The inspection usually takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the property. After the inspection, you’ll receive a detailed report within 24 to 48 hours.
