Local preparation

Before booking in Central and Western

Central

For Central offices, shops or homes, identify the actual use, floor and unit. Separate tenant fittings from shared building systems: a unit inspection is not a whole-building engineering inspection.

Sheung Wan

For Sheung Wan, confirm the street number and entrance. If commercial and residential entrances differ or stairs are involved, explain the route and floors; mention existing finishes and concealed areas.

Admiralty

For Admiralty commercial units, check visitor registration and permitted tenant areas. List unit-specific fittings separately from central air-conditioning, fire-safety certification and common facilities.

Sai Ying Pun

For Sai Ying Pun, use the actual street number, floor and unit rather than a nearby entrance. Explain stairs, lifts and utility availability so the operable inspection items can be planned.

Kennedy Town

For occupied Kennedy Town units, arrange tenant permission and safely clear movable obstructions. At vacant possession, bring the agreed handover equipment list to check what is actually left.

Mid-levels

For Mid-levels homes, identify the estate, block and actual entrance, including any stairs between entrance and unit. Balconies and high windows are checked only where access is permitted and safe.

Shan Teng

For Peak houses or apartments, explain internal storeys, accessible areas and utilities. Garden, roof and external-wall access and scope must be confirmed separately from an interior unit inspection.

Neighbourhoods

Neighbourhoods in Central and Western

Many Hong Kong Island units sit on slopes or are stair-access only. Tell us about lifts and walk-up floors when booking so any stair fee can be confirmed.

FAQ

Booking questions

What should I provide for an inspection at Central and Western?

Provide the complete building, phase/block, floor and unit, usable floor area and preferred date. Explain the handover or renovation stage, utilities and access permission.

How should I choose an inspection in Central and Western?

Choose by the unit’s actual stage: new handover, second-hand possession, existing finishes or completed renovation. The Central and Western directory lists 16 residential and 27 commercial entries. Find the unit by use and address, then confirm equipment, access and utilities.

Can I enquire about an unlisted unit in Central and Western?

Yes. Send the full address, unit use, usable area, preferred date and current condition. Neighbourhood lists use address text; an absent listing does not mean service is unavailable, and you need not select another property name to enquire.

How is the inspection fee calculated for Central and Western?

The fee uses HK$4.5 per sq ft of usable floor area with area-tier minimum charges. Stairs cost HK$80 per floor; applicable location and optional water-jet test fees are separate. Send the full address to confirm the total quote.

When will I receive the report, and does it include photos?

The electronic report is normally issued on the next business day. It records issue locations and inspection results without photos. Owners follow up rectification with the developer or contractor; a separately booked reinspection is chargeable.
