Site Inspections and Quality Control
Updated: 7 days ago
Problems are cheapest to fix before they are covered up. Regular inspections catch them in time.
This guide explains what to check at key stages.
Key stages to inspect
Foundations, steel installation, temporary works, damp proofing and structural connections before they are covered.
Checking against drawings
Compare what is built with the drawings and specification, and query differences immediately.
Recording findings
Notes and photos linked to drawings give a clear record and make instructions easy to follow.
Closing out defects
Agree a snagging list and check it is completed before final payment.
Working with Building Control
Coordinate inspections so that the work is not covered before it has been checked.
