Our New Build Handover Inspection service in Melbourne gives you the confidence that your property has been built to specifications and is free of any hidden defects. With our experienced inspectors, detailed reports, and comprehensive checks, we help you avoid costly repairs and ensure your new home is everything you hoped for. We offer:
We conduct a thorough inspection of the entire property, including both interior and exterior areas, to ensure that the workmanship is of high quality and meets industry standards.
We examine the structural aspects of the property, such as walls, floors, ceilings, and foundations, to ensure there are no issues like cracks, subsidence, or incomplete finishes.
Our inspectors check that all safety regulations and building codes have been adhered to, ensuring your new home is compliant with local Melbourne regulations.
During our inspections, we commonly find the following defects in new builds:
Surface Imperfections: Scratches, dents, or paint drips on walls and surfaces are common issues that builders may overlook in the final stages of construction.
Plumbing Issues: Leaks, poorly installed fittings, or low water pressure are common problems that can lead to long-term damage if not addressed early.
Electrical Deficiencies: We often find problems with light fixtures, faulty wiring, or inadequate socket placement.
Poorly Fitted Doors and Windows: Ill-fitting doors and windows can cause drafts, moisture issues, or security concerns.
Uneven Flooring: Uneven or improperly installed flooring can cause both cosmetic and safety concerns over time.
Incomplete or Missing Fixtures: Missing light switches, unfinished cabinetry, or uninstalled appliances are frequent oversights that need attention before handover.

Our detailed yet straightforward reports give you all the information you need to address any issues with your builder, ensuring a smooth handover process.
Beyond just the inspection, we offer ongoing support to answer any questions you may have and ensure your builder resolves any issues before you move in.

A New Build Handover Inspection is a thorough review of your newly built property, designed to identify any defects or unfinished work before you take possession. This ensures your builder addresses all issues before final handover.
Even new homes can have hidden defects. An independent inspection helps uncover these issues, ensuring your builder rectifies them before you move in. This can save you time, stress, and money in the long run
The cost of a new build handover inspection depends on the size and complexity of the property. Our rates start at $400, and we offer transparent pricing with no hidden fees.
Most inspections take between 2 to 3 hours, depending on the size of the property. You will receive a detailed report within 24 hours of the inspection.
If defects are found, we’ll list them clearly in the report. You can then present this to your builder, who should fix these issues before the final handover. We offer follow-up inspections to confirm the corrections have been made.
We inspect all key areas of your home, including structural integrity, plumbing, electrical systems, doors and windows, flooring, finishes, and fixtures. Our goal is to ensure everything is built and installed correctly.
