Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building Inspectors from floorplans to handover 6Aug 20, 2008 12:22 pm snistr Hi G, If you plan on going through a large builder, then there is no point getting an independant inspector to assist in the planning etc as the builders usually have set plans. I am currently building with PD in Taylors Hill and am using a company called Darbecca PTY LTD. They were recommended to me from a friend who used them at his place in Point Cook. They have been great so far and i have already had my frame inspection. I will also be getting them for the lock up and final. Definately money well spent IMO. Keeps the builder on their toes. Let me know if you would like the details. thanks for the advice - could you pm their contact details. Cheers G Re: Building Inspectors from floorplans to handover 7Aug 22, 2008 3:55 pm Here is the info you were after for Contract Check:

Thank you for your kind words. Doing this job is somewhat hard at times as the only people that show any thanks are the owners of the dwellings. The builders don't like us along with most of the trades. Your encouragement goes a long way. For those that are looking for an inspection, you can now contact us on the web at qaireporting.com.au or on the phone on 0400 199 544. Have a look at our site. The Case studies and Photo Gallery are recommended. We only look after the Melbourne area and greater Geelong. In relation to New Home Inspections, Kevin Mc Donald, he is also recommended. If you can't book me, Kevin is recommended by ourselves as his work is also very well regarded by both his clients and those in the industry. Cheers all and good luck with your projects.

He was great, identified our mortar was too sandy and subsequently it failed the mortar test three days before handover. Now re-pointing the whole house with AKA Brickwork Renovations.....Kev saved us thousands.

We moved over from UK over 6 years ago and just finished building our new home. Our builder was Porter Davis....a nightmare goes to say! Our new home inspector Darren Love from Darbecca LTd was the best! Very professional, honest and very thorough. I believe the expertise Darren Love has in his inspections has saved us a lot of pain from building and sleepless nights. I now feel after his inspection I can move into my new home happily, safely and worth every cent! We have also used New Homes Inspections, Kevin McDonald and he was equally good as Darren Love, very thorough and professional. I wish you the best of luck in building your new home and hope you have an enjoyable experience, my recommendation definitely have a private inspection done like we did, your peace of mind at a small cost...
