Report content and useLocal preparation
For Tseung Kwan O, give formal estate, phase and block rather than only a station. Check the relevant phase’s handover specifications or bring equipment and works records for second-hand or renovated units.
Inspection and follow-up
Agree access dates, accessible rooms and vacant-possession status with the owner or agent.
After receiving the electronic report without photos, organise findings by location and item number and request an itemised response from the developer, owner or contractor. Your own photos can support your follow-up records.
Confirm repair progress and site conditions before checking the same locations. For a separately booked reinspection, send the recheck list and agree scope, availability and the separate fee first.
