Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Aug 11, 2014 12:10 pm Hi, Has anyone used an Independent Building Inspector during their new build? At what stage or stages is best to employ them? Every stage or just at hand over? Any help and/or recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks The Turleys Re: Independent Building Inspector - Perth 3Aug 12, 2014 3:21 pm Guys, I just signed with Housepect today for the slab inspection. If you have RAC membership you get 10% discount.

Half way through brickwork and just found out we have some big problems.

He was recommended to me by someone else on this forum. He did an inspection for us just before roof cover and he was very thorough. He picked up a few issues (which we would have never noticed) which our builder had to fix. I will be getting him back to do another inspection at PCI.

He suggested two inspections, one just before roof cover & the other at PCI. He inspected our house today as our roof carpentry has just finished and we're just waiting on the inspection report to come through so fingers crossed! Re: Independent Building Inspector - Perth 9Jan 29, 2015 2:35 pm We just used Houspect for our Slab down inspection. Adrian was our inspector. I felt he was a good advocate for us given the few (too many) issues we are having. I think we will use Houspect again for our Brickwork Plate Height inspection.

I do enjoy watching that tik tok inspector from Victoria but he does go a little… 12 81883 It is true that a builder can ignore your independent inspection report as it is not part of the contractual arrangement but that is stupid because he cannot avoid fixing… 9 46854 |
