Practical completion inspections in Elwood.
Handover and pre-sale inspections for Elwood apartments and period renovations.
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 Elwood
Elwood's art deco flats and contemporary apartment blocks share the same pre-settlement squeeze. Off-the-plan settlements here give you one short walk-through before you commit, so a same-day, clause-cited defect list is the only thing that makes that window usable.
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.
