FAQ

Booking questions

What should I provide for an inspection at 21 BORRETT ROAD?

Check the address listed on this page, then 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.

Can an occupied unit be inspected?

Discuss the available access and inspection scope first. Obtain owner or tenant permission and identify accessible rooms and equipment. Safely clear movable obstructions; fixed furniture, stock and inaccessible areas are recorded as limitations.

What equipment records should I bring to handover?

Bring the agreed list of appliances, cabinets, sanitary fittings and other retained installations, plus available repair or disconnection records. Compare delivery and operability with the list; seek appropriate advice separately on contractual liability or compensation.

How is the inspection fee calculated for 21 BORRETT ROAD?

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.

Should I choose a handover or post-renovation inspection?

A new-home handover is checked against delivery specifications and included equipment; a second-hand handover against retained fittings and existing condition. For completed renovations, bring the work quotation, drawings and changes. Explain the unit’s current situation and your concerns to agree the appropriate scope.
