Another level of quality control at the end of the build

We work predominantly with volume and residential builders, carrying out comprehensive plumbing inspections before handover to help identify defects, blockages, leaks and installation issues before the keys are handed over to the homeowner.

The idea behind NPI is to give builders another level of quality control at the end of the build, while also helping reduce avoidable plumbing call-backs after handover.

  • Identify defects, blockages and leaks before handover
  • Reduce avoidable plumbing call-backs
  • A clear record for your site team and QA files

Stormwater

Internal Plumbing
