What is the best time to inspect our property?

The best time will be prior to completing on you property with your builder, the report we create will put pressure on your builder to rectify the identified defect prior to moving in.

You should arrange an inspection around 2 months before the end of your 2 year defect liability period, again the report will put pressure on the builder to carry out the required repairs in a timely fashion.

You can request an inspection at any time during the 2 year defect liability period if you are experiencing problems with your property or having problems getting your builder to accept liability for the defects. In our experience a report from Quality Assured Inspections usually gets the builder to sort the issues out.


How many defects do New Homes have on average?

We find an average 65 defects on a standard 3 bedroom property, these range from sockets not level to the more serious defects like defective fire doors that could lead to serious life threatening results. These are real defects that we identified and show the need to inspect your property in detail.

What experience do you have?

Quality Assured Inspections was set up by 2 experienced construction managers with over 30 years experience within the building industry.

All our inspectors are experienced managers who have a proven track record of producing quality buildings and vast knowledge of house building. All our inspectors are hand picked and interviewed to ensure we can offer you the most professional service available.

Will I get value for money?

Based on the average number of defects we find in a new home it would cost around £3000 to rectify if you were to under take the work yourself.

Our inspection fees are just a fraction of the potential rectification cost, with this in mind we believe our service is great value for money.
