FAQ

Building inspections in Rockbank: common questions

What does an inspection cost in Rockbank?

It depends which service, which stage, and the size of the home. The online quote returns a fixed figure against your address instead of a range.

How soon can an inspector attend here?

Ordinarily two to four business days, with stage inspections fitted to whatever window your builder's program leaves.

When does the report reach me?

Inside 24 hours of attendance, with stage reports often landing that evening.

Do you actually inspect in Rockbank?

Yes, regularly. The reviews on this page are all from Rockbank clients.

Which standards apply here?

AS 4349.1 for pre-purchase, AS 4349.3 for timber pests, AS 2870 for slabs, AS 1684 for framing, AS 3740 for wet areas, together with the NCC and the Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2015.

Do you cover the rest of the Melton corridor?

Yes. Aintree, Deanside, Thornhill Park, Fraser Rise, Plumpton and Melton South all sit on the same run.

Which stages are worth booking?

Frame and pre-handover at a minimum. Slab pre-pour next, because the vapour barrier and reinforcement problems we see in this corridor cannot be corrected once concrete is placed.

Defect report or expert witness report, which do I need?

The defect report exists so that you and the builder have a shared list to work from. The Building and Plumbing Commission dispute service and VCAT need an expert witness report drawn to the VCAT practice note.

Can I attend the inspection?

Yes, and on a frame or slab inspection it is worth doing, because everything is still open to view.

What if the builder pushes back?

Structural items cite the engineering drawing and finish items cite a tolerance, so the discussion moves onto a document.

Will you check the list once it has been completed?

Yes. A reinspection marks off each original item and gives you a second dated record.

Who writes the report?

The inspector who attended, with their mobile number printed on it.
