• Location
  Address

• A photocopy or reproduction copy of the contract including the whole specification, the electrical plan of the property, and the architect’s drawings of the interiors and exteriors of the house.

• A few light bulbs which match the fittings for lights to test each one.

• A cloth to check for stains and chips or to wipe dust off.

• Testing kit for doors (screws, spirit level, measuring tape, torch).

• Your phone or a camera to take photos of any issues you might notice.

• After inspecting a room with the checklists, try walking and looking around without thinking about the items on the list, to see if there is anything you might notice.

• When checking surfaces such as walls, ceilings, floors, counters, stairs, or anything with tiles, check for any bulging, sagging, paint issues, cracking, nails protruding, dampness, unevenness, decay, looseness, or any other sort of damage.

• For floors and stairs, be sure to walk around them and listen for any creaking and feel around for unevenness or instability, to prevent any potential future accidents.

• For ceilings and the roof, be sure that insulation has been properly installed.

• The same reminders go for the exterior of the home, looking at brickwork, masonry, woodwork, roof tiles, gutters, downspouts, weep holes, etc.

• For anything that involves water, such as sinks, toilets, showers, bidets, faucets, and the like, be sure to check for cracks, leaks, looseness of valves and handles, and cosmetic damage. Do not forget to check their surroundings such as cupboards, shower screens, or similar areas for possible leaks or dampness which might cause water damage.

• Ask the Site Supervisor if there are excess materials, and maybe think of ways to repurpose them for the grounds, maybe for a garden or a path, etc. so as not to waste anything. You paid for those materials, after all.
