Things have been going really well and we thought our SS seemed on top of most things so we really were undecided about getting an independent inspection report - I mean why spend more money than we need to right? WRONG!
Can't tell you how happy we are with New Home Inspections and the report they did. It's called a preplaster report and costs around $550. Worth every cent as we found out! He picked up some things that the SS expected but there was also a list of things that suprised our SS. The SS has said he will rectify those things which is great but what would have happened if we didn't get the report?!
The report noticed things like; the exhausts weren't vented to the external wall from toilets, where plaster joins on framework were insufficient and much more - some of which I don't really follow but will be rectified anyhow.
Best money we have spent so far and so if you are deliberating on the getting a report - DON"T!
Lock up will now be next Thursday so that the errors can be fixed. Will be getting another report done too at the next stage just to cover our butts! (Funny enough we also received the invoice from PD for lock up- cheeky buggers!)
PS> There was an "independent" report done as well and it identified issues as well - to be expected - but not to the extent the truely independent report picked up. The New Homes report also had pics to substantiate their report along with the appropriate building codes quoted. Very well done!
PPS> PD Insulation has been delivered!!
