It looks like you're part way through your build. Do you also need these following progress inspections?
An End of Maintenance Period inspections occurs 6- 12 months after your Practical Completion Inspection (PCI).
Many builder maintenance periods expire within the first 12 months. Some problems, such as settling cracks, water leaks, or workmanship in finishes, may not be immediately visible at PCI but become apparent after the property has been occupied for several months. This inspection ensures previously concealed or emerging issues are identified and reported to the builder for rectification.
