Practical completion inspections in Craigieburn.

Practical completion and handover inspections for new builds and townhouses across Craigieburn.

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 Craigieburn

Craigieburn is volume-builder country — fast programmes, big crews, and finishing trades moving between three or four homes a week. That's exactly where paint holidays, lippy tiles and rushed caulking show up.

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.
