Practical completion inspections in Albert Park.
Practical completion and renovation handover inspections for Albert Park homes.
Also known as a PCI or handover inspection — the last chance to have your builder fix cosmetic defects before you take the keys.
What we see in Albert Park
Albert Park combines tightly held Victorian terraces with architect-led extensions and premium contemporary rebuilds. On compact sites, the transitions between restored rooms and new work demand close attention: cornice lines, custom joinery, stone junctions, paintwork and tiled wet areas are where an expensive finish can quietly fall short at practical completion.
We walk every room under raking light with a level, photograph each cosmetic defect, and cite it against the Building and Plumbing Commission Victoria Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2026 or the relevant Australian Standard. Your builder gets a numbered list they can act on rather than a page of opinions.
