10+

This 3 Month Home Warranty Inspection checklist helps builders and homeowners document and resolve early defects after handover. It guides inspection of interiors and exteriors including doors, windows, cabinetry, flooring, tiles, paint, stairs, wet areas, garage, façade, porch, and alfresco. Items are reviewed against NCC, BCA, Australian Standards, and the Guide to Standards and Tolerances. Capture notes, agree on a final defects list, and confirm rectification at reinspection with client and builder sign off.
