Building Envelope, Interior & Finish Inspections

Service Scope & Examination Focus

Category Objectives

• Check specified works against approved drawings and technical requirements.
• Identify observable defects, installation errors and deterioration.
• Examine physical characteristics at agreed construction or service stages.
• Identify discrepancies before subsequent works conceal them.
• Support informed completion, acceptance and repair decisions.
• Confirm rectified workmanship through targeted reinspection.

Inspection Methodology

Inspections follow the agreed construction stage or asset scope. Defined locations, examination methods and acceptance criteria guide the work and subsequent reporting.

• Confirm the assignment. Identify assets, locations, inspection stages, coverage and reference criteria.
• Plan inspection points. Select methods and works requiring examination before concealment.
• Establish site readiness. Confirm access, preparations and the condition of presented works.
• Examine the works. Inspect materials, connections, installations, surfaces and specified dimensions.
• Record evidence. Capture locations, photographs, measurements and defects against drawing details.
• Evaluate conformity. Compare inspected work with requirements and document identified deviations.
• Report findings. Provide location-specific conclusions, examination coverage and access limitations.
• Reinspect repaired work. Where commissioned, revisit rectified items and update defect status.

• A location-specific record of inspected works and physical condition.
• Documented workmanship and installation discrepancies.
