FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We are usually able to complete the inspection at the property within 48 hours, then deliver the written report the next business day after the inspection.

Under Section 137B Building Act, any owner builder selling their property must provide a defects report as part of the sale documentation.

A Section 137B Owner Builder Report is a mandatory inspection for properties being sold within 6.5 years of construction, ensuring compliance with building regulations and identifying any defects.

When completing an inspection for a new construction, a building inspector will typically review the building plans to ensure all relevant building codes are met.

They will then complete stage inspections at each stage of the construction to check elements such as the foundations, framing and fixings. 

Each stage inspection builds on the previous one, where areas of concern identified in a previous stage inspection is reviewed to ensure problems have been rectified.

A VCAT dispute can sometimes be stressful and difficult to resolve. Having an independent expert third party such as Just Inspections can minimise the stress and enable the process to remain fact based.

Contact us to get a free sample VCAT Report, a free booklet on dispute and litigation, and more information how we may be able to help you resolve your building dispute.

Home inspections for a new construction are not mandatory.  However, new home owners typically have New Construction QA Inspections completed to ensure all builders and contractors are building to the relevant codes and regulations.

Most people don’t typically come from a building background, and therefore don’t always know the respective codes and regulations that need to be adhered to, or how to check if they are actually being met.  

For this reason, people who are building their dream homes, hire a home inspector who will complete ‘stage inspections’ and provide clear reports that either give the home owner peace of mind, or highlight things that need to be rectified.

Just Inspections are typically able to be at the property to complete the pre purchase inspection within 48 hours. A written pre purchase building inspection report will then be provided the next business day after the inspection.

Yes – whilst Just Inspections pre purchase inspection Melbourne reports are thorough, if there are particular concerns you have with the property, please let us know, and we will ensure those areas are scrutinized in detail.

A pre-purchase building inspection is a small cost next to the price of a property, and it can save you from expensive surprises later. It reduces the stress of making such a significant financial investment, so you can focus on enjoying your new home or investment property.

Yes – Just Inspections are able to complete reports for Domestic Building Dispute Resolutions Victoria (DBDRV). In most disputes between a builder a home owner, you will be required to lodge a case with DBDRV before going to VCAT. DBDRV is a free conciliation service that is supported by expert building advisors and designed to help resolve domestic building disputes quickly and fairly.
