Building Stage Inspections in Quandong

At KBS Inspections, we understand the importance of the Lock-Up Stage in your new home construction. At this stage, the building is enclosed and protected from the elements, making it an important opportunity to identify defects before internal works progress. Our Lock-Up Stage Inspection assesses key components including external doors and windows, roofing, brickwork, external finishes, framing and other visible construction elements. We look for workmanship issues, defects, installation concerns and visible compliance matters that may require attention. Identifying problems at this stage can help prevent more costly repairs later in the build. Our detailed report, supported by photographs and clear recommendations, gives you greater confidence before construction moves to the next stage.

At KBS Inspections, our Stage 4 – Fixing Stage Inspection provides an important quality check during the installation of internal finishes and fit-outs, before the construction progresses to completion. At this stage, our inspectors assess visible workmanship and installation of key components including plasterboard, cabinetry, skirting boards, architraves, internal doors, wet-area finishes and other internal fixtures. We identify visible defects, installation issues and areas requiring attention while they can still be readily addressed by the builder. With our experienced inspectors providing an independent assessment and detailed report, you can have greater confidence that the quality of workmanship is being maintained throughout your build.

As your new home approaches completion, a Stage 5 – Practical Completion Inspection (PCI) is an important final check before taking possession. At KBS Inspections, our independent inspectors conduct a comprehensive assessment of the completed works, focusing on workmanship, finishes, fixtures, fittings and visible defects. We identify incomplete, defective or poor-quality work that may require rectification by your builder before handover or settlement. Our detailed PCI report, supported by photographs and clear recommendations, provides you with the information needed to discuss outstanding items with your builder. With KBS Inspections, you can move towards handover with greater confidence, knowing your new home has been independently assessed at this important final stage of construction.
