Protect Your New Home with a New Building Inspection
Protect Your New Home with a New Building Inspection
There can be nothing more exhilarating than building your own home, however the experience can also leave many of you nervous. If you don’t anyone in the building industry how do you know the builders and trades persons you have on site are looking after your best interests. When you think about it, the builder is essentially a business on his own and may be looking after his own interest and hoping to make as much profit as possible, is he providing you with the right quality materials as requested, perhaps his work is shoddy, all the things you are trying to avoid.
To stop this happening a building inspector from Australian Property Building Inspections (APBI) will help ensure your builder complies and meets Australian Standards every step of the way by giving you reliable and up to date Information about the stages of your construction to ensure the quality of the construction work. A new building inspection often called a stage construction inspection is for anyone planning to build a new home for the first time, so unless you understand the Building Code of Australia and the Australian Standards plus be aware of what to expect from your builder you need to seriously think about organising one.
A new building inspection is a series of professional evaluations of your construction that takes place at stages throughout the construction process. The report it provides conducted by professional building inspectors will be unbiased as they have no vested interest in your project. Each stage of your build follows the Australian Standards and building codes, so you know your new prop will be both structurally sound and built with quality workmanship.
Principal Certifying Authority inspectors look for compliance with the BCA, DA and CC, so their role is to act in the interests of Local Government to ensure that the building complies with approvals. New building inspections protect new homeowners and are designed to your interests. Their role is to focus on workmanship and quality in ways a Certifying inspector will not.
