About new build handover inspection
A handover or practical-completion inspection on a newly built home creates an independent defect list before you accept the build and make the final payment. It gives you leverage to have defects fixed under the builder's obligations. Book it before handover, not after you have moved in.
Getting quotes in Latham
A good inspector will quote new build handover inspection clearly: labour, materials and callout itemised, licence details offered without prompting, and a realistic timeframe for Latham. If a quote is dramatically below the others, ask what it leaves out. There is usually an answer.
Local knowledge counts
Latham sits in the Cotter - Namadgi area. Mention the suburb when you enquire and ask the provider to confirm travel, availability and any callout component before you agree to work.
Quick answers
What does a building inspection cover?+
A pre-purchase building inspection is a visual check of accessible areas covering structural elements, roof, walls, floors, wet areas, and safety hazards, reported against the relevant standard. It does not open up walls or cover items behind finishes. The report notes major defects and areas needing further advice.
Is a pest inspection separate from a building inspection?+
Yes. A timber pest inspection specifically targets termites, borers and timber decay, which a building inspection does not fully cover. Most buyers order a combined building and pest report, which covers both in one visit and is cheaper than booking them separately.
When should I book a building and pest inspection?+
Book it as soon as your offer is accepted so the report is ready within your cooling-off or subject-to-inspection period, which is often only a few business days. Leaving it late can force you to choose between rushing or losing your inspection right.
