    Final Inspection / Practical Completion Inspection (PCI)

    Before you take possession of your new home or completed build, it’s essential to ensure everything has been finished to a professional standard. At Build Check Inspections, we provide detailed and independent Practical Completion Inspections (PCI) across Melbourne to help homeowners and builders identify incomplete, defective, or non-compliant work—before final sign-off. Our qualified building practitioners conduct comprehensive final handover inspections to ensure your property meets the contract, plans, and all regulatory standards.
    What we check during a PCI:

    • Confirm all construction work is complete
    • Ensure the home is ready for occupation
    • Check compliance with building plans, specifications, and contract inclusions
    • Inspect paintwork, plastering, tiling, flooring, and cabinetry
    • Check doors, windows, architraves, skirtings, and benchtops for correct installation
    • Verify all plumbing, electrical fixtures, and appliances are installed and functional
    • Open/close all windows, doors, cupboards, and drawers
    • Test lights, power points, taps, showers, toilets, exhaust fans, and more
    • Assess finishes against the Guide to Standards and Tolerances (Victoria)
    • Identify incomplete or defective work that requires rectification
    • Ensure safety features (balustrades, stair treads, smoke alarms, etc.) meet legal requirements
    • Confirm the home is free of obvious hazards
    • Inspect external walls, roof, gutters, downpipes, paving, and landscaping (if included)
    • Ensure the site is clean and free from construction debris

    Why a Final Inspection matters
