Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Apr 29, 2009 9:24 pm Hi We are near the end of our build with PD and PCI is tentative scheduled for May 09. Just wanted to check with those who have previously build with PD, can you get an independent inspector to attend the PCI with you or do the independent inspector make his own check before / after our PCI and if so, how do we include the issues he find to be fixed as part of the PCI. Thank you Re: PD PCI Inspection Process 2May 04, 2009 9:18 pm hysterical1144 Hi We are near the end of our build with PD and PCI is tentative scheduled for 15 May 09.

Thank you Anyone ?? Re: PD PCI Inspection Process 3May 04, 2009 9:37 pm Can't help re the independent inspector, I'm afriad, since we didn't use one. You could PM MikkyG - I know he used one.... Common sense would dictate that you get your own inspector out either at PCI or beforehand. Otherwise you may run into time constraints and end up delaying handover. Re: PD PCI Inspection Process 5May 05, 2009 6:12 pm Hi, we just had an inspector do our house at frame stage and he will come back at handover for us. He suggested that he come in before the PCI so that we had his report and raised the issues with PD at PCI. Made sense to us so that's what we're planning on doing.

I'm looking for recommendations for good inspectors. Are you happy with yours? Re: PD PCI Inspection Process 7May 05, 2009 10:53 pm Hi hysterical1144, We had our PCI a week ago. Went through the house with our Site Supervisor and documented all the items that needed to be fixed. Later that day we had our own independent inspector (Kevin) to go through the house with his own list of items that needed to be fixed. A lot of the stuff that Kevin picked up, were already documented when we went through the house with our SS earlier that morning. It’s been a week and PD are working through all the items raised from both the PCI and Kevin’s report. Cheers.
