FAQ

Fixing inspections in Rockbank: common questions

Can fixing and waterproofing be one visit?

In Victoria they are usually combined as fixing including waterproofing, and we can attend for either or both.

What is checked at fixing?

Alignment, gaps, finish and completeness of the internal joinery work, alongside the wet areas if they are at the same point.

Which standard?

The Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2015 for alignment, gaps and finish.

What is excluded?

Appliances are not tested, circuits are not made live and nothing is commissioned.

How long on site?

Around two hours for a typical home in this corridor.

Worth a separate visit?

If budget allows. Items caught before paint are cheap to put right.
