Local preparation

Before booking in Islands

Tung Chung

For Tung Chung estates, give development, phase and block and confirm any applicable address-based surcharge rather than inferring it from the administrative district. Check handover and access with the relevant management.

Discovery Bay

Discovery Bay has a confirmed HK$800 location surcharge. Provide estate, block, entrance and access times and verify other applicable arrangements; do not automatically add a second islands surcharge.

Mui Wo

For Mui Wo homes or village houses, give the street number, entrance, walking route, stairs and utilities. Confirm the islands surcharge and available visit times before booking; not every requested date is guaranteed.

Cheung Chau

For Cheung Chau units, give street number, floor, accessible entrance, stairs and utilities. Confirm islands-service timing in advance and permissions for any roof or ancillary areas.

Lamma Island

For Lamma Island, give village, street number and access route rather than only the pier. Explain on-island access, stairs, usable area and requested date so service and surcharges can be confirmed.

Neighbourhoods

Neighbourhoods in Islands

Some New Territories locations, such as Ma Wan, carry a remote-area fee. Give the full address when booking so the fee can be confirmed.

FAQ

Booking questions

What should I provide for an inspection at Islands?

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 Islands?

Choose by the unit’s actual stage: new handover, second-hand possession, existing finishes or completed renovation. The Islands directory lists 30 residential and 0 commercial entries. Find the unit by use and address, then confirm equipment, access and utilities.

Can I enquire about an unlisted unit in Islands?

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 Islands?

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.
