Building & renovating

What are independent stage inspections for a new build and why have them?

Independent stage inspections are checks you commission at points during your new home's construction, such as slab, frame, lock-up, fixing and completion, so you have your own written record of the visible work. They are separate from the mandatory inspections carried out for the building permit and never replace them.
