Stage Inspections for Your New Home Build
Independent guidance | Detailed reporting | Complete peace of mind
Building a new home is exciting — but it can also feel overwhelming when you're not on site every day. Our independent stage inspections give you confidence at every milestone, ensuring your new home build is progressing safely, correctly, and in line with Australian Standards.
As trusted third-party building inspectors on the Gold Coast and Northern NSW, we’re here to be your second set of eyes. We don’t tell your builder how to do their job — we simply make sure key elements meet engineering plans, the Building Code of Australia, and your expectations.
What Is a Stage Inspection?
A stage inspection is a professional quality check completed at critical phases of your new home build. Each inspection focuses on workmanship, structural integrity, compliance, and whether your construction is ready to move to the next stage.
Dwell Building Services provides five key new home build inspections:
Pre-Slab Inspection
Wall & Roof Frame Inspection
Pre-Lining / Lock-Up Inspection
Waterproofing Inspection
Practical Completion / Handover Inspection
These inspections help identify issues early, protecting your investment and saving you from costly future repairs.
