A practical completion inspection is conducted when your building project is nearly complete and ready for handover. Inspect365’s Melbourne service identifies visible defects, incomplete work, and areas needing attention, providing a professional report to help you make informed decisions and ensure the builder addresses any outstanding issues.
Why Practical Completion Inspections Matter
A practical completion inspection ensures that the property is genuinely ready for occupation and can prevent costly follow-up issues. Typical matters our inspectors check include:
- Verification that rooms, fixtures, and fittings are installed and functioning
- Checking for visible defects in walls, floors, windows, doors, and cabinetry
- Reviewing external finishes such as cladding, roofing, gutters, and outdoor areas
- Identifying visible issues for follow-up with the builder
- Providing a clear, documented report to support any necessary builder actions
By conducting a practical completion inspection, you can move forward confidently, knowing any remaining issues are clearly documented.
