In short: A new build in Aintree follows strict regulations, but small issues can still appear. A building inspection catches these problems before you sign the contract.
Drawings and plans
The finished house must match the approved plans. We check that the layout and fenestration match what was approved.
Structural elements
Bricks and bond beams must align correctly. We look for gaps or breaks in load-bearing walls and slabs.
Wet areas
Shower bases and waterproofing often fail in new builds. We check for leaks and correct waterproofing membranes.
Compliance
We verify the work against the National Construction Code and the Guide to Standards and Tolerances.
