Tips Regarding Commercial Building Inspections on the Gold Coast

When it’s time to hire building inspectors, it can be helpful to know a few tips for working with them for the most successful relationship. Here are a few things to keep in mind.

• Schedule early. Plan your inspection to give yourself plenty of time to address any possible issues. Keep your schedule as flexible as possible and, if you will have an engineer to test concrete and soil, let the inspector know that you will provide them with a copy of that report. Also, prepare for the visit by securing any ladders and guard rails and keeping walkways clear to promote safety.
• Offer to assist. Meet the inspector when they arrive and walk through with them. That way, you can point out any key areas such as load-bearing frames, structural steel connections, framing details, utility stub-ins, and roof penetrations. Make all stamped drawings accessible to the inspector, including all correspondence and changes from engineers and architects.
• Document everything. A reliable daily job-site log is essential. Be sure to document your inspections well and that the inspector signs off on it before leaving. IF there are areas of concern, take pictures.
