Practical Completion (PCI / Handover) Stage Inspection
Estimated arrival time: Within 24 hours
Description
iSPECT Building Inspections conducts practical completion inspections (PCI) or handover inspections for newly constructed homes prior to final settlement. This independent evaluation enables buyers to identify incomplete work, poor finishes, or non-compliant construction before accepting handover. An experienced builder inspects the completed property against Australian Standard AS 4349.1-2007. The inspector thoroughly examines internal paintwork, wall plaster, joinery, doors, windows, plumbing fixtures, tiling, roof framing, external cladding, and drainage. A digital PDF report complete with high-resolution photographs is released within 24 hours. The detailed report provides an itemised defect list that home buyers can present directly to their builder for rectification prior to final payment.
