In short: What to check during a stage build inspection in a fast growing suburb.
New builds
New homes in Morayfield often follow the approved plans and engineering. However, defects can still appear during construction.
Building regulations
Builders must follow the Queensland Building and Construction Commission Act 1991. They must also meet the NCC and the QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide.
Detailed inspection reports
We check the building envelope, weatherproofing, roofing, drainage and structural elements. We also look for any non-compliance with the approved drawings.
The standard
A stage inspection follows the approved drawings and the NCC. It does not use AS 4349.1 as that is for existing homes.
Timing
Book the inspection after the lock-up stage to ensure the roof and cladding are on.
