Practical completion inspections in Toorak.
Designer defect inspections for Toorak's architect-designed homes and luxury 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 Toorak
Toorak projects carry some of the most expensive finishes in the country — hand-selected stone, bespoke joinery, imported tapware. The tolerance a Toorak owner expects is far tighter than the Guide's minimum, and the defects that matter are the subtle ones: mitre gaps in veneer, caulk lines against stone, substrate telegraphing through flat paint. We inspect to the standard you paid for, and cite the Guide where it counts.
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.
