In short: Understanding the QBCC Standards and tolerances during a building inspection.
The QBCC Standards
The QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide sets the rules for workmanship in Queensland.
Acceptable work
Small variations from the drawings are usually allowed, but major defects must be listed.
Site conditions
We look at the site against the engineering and the approved drawings.
Stage inspections
We check the build against the NCC and the QBCC Standards and Tolerances Guide.
Final checks
The handover inspection confirms all defects have been rectified before you occupy the home.
