- This video is useful for anyone that is going through the house build process and is nearing the practical completion stage of the build. So, what is practical completion, or PCI1? Knowing what it is, why it's important to you (as the homeowner), what's involved and who should be involved are bits of information that are hard to come by from any one source. I should know! I combed through many articles online and decided to put this video together based on my own experiences and discussions with my site supervisor.
Hopefully, by the end of this video, you will be far more informed when heading into your PCI1 meeting and know exactly what to look for :)
Hey everyone! Thanks for your support and feedback on my videos. I'm happy to announce that I've created a whole handbook since this video and launched it this week. Based on feedback I wanted to create a resource that has multiple checklists, tips, what to bring to PCI and what to do with your list. You can check it out here: tiantalks.com/product/practical-completion-inspection-pci-handbook/
I wish I had something like this when I was going through practical completion. Great video!
Thanks Tom! This will be for your next house build then! Ha.

Working on this one at the moment! Can't wait to share this one as I feel it will be super helpful!!
Excellent videos, thankyou for making these
Researching everything atm, came across this.
I will definately be getting a 3rd party inspector also. 👌
You're very welcome. So glad this information is coming in handy. My next video will be helpful for your practical completion, once your home is all done! Might seem like it's a long way away but time flies when you're building a house 😂
Cannot wait :)
I’m coming up to my practical completion stage soon and my partner and I are completely clueless when it comes to this stuff so we would for sure have missed crucial things. Thank you so much for this video, you’ve saved us from the future headaches and stress.
Aw I'm so glad I could help. That's exactly why I want to make videos like this 😁
When is your report videos coming out?
Thank you! Is there a secon part tk this?
hi, is there a link to the checklist or part 2 of this video?
well done my dear sister for your explaination ,we need more informations please.
Thanks very much. What kind of information do you need? :)
Have you seen the Part 2 video I posted the other week?
Nice ad for your PAID info on the blog.
Hi, thank you for posting this video. We are going our pci in 2 months. Just a quick question, when the builder ask for the final payment after the pci, is it the phase payment or variations payment ? Do we have full right to postpone that payment until they come and fix the house ? Because our builder usually only give us 5 days for any invoice. We do aware if we go beyond that, penalties could apply. Looking forwards to your thoughts about this. Thanks!
Hi there! I recommend you talk to your site supervisor if you feel that there are items in PCI that have not been "practically completed" according to their standards. Example, we delayed payment because our sliding garage door had not been installed and therefore was not practically complete. This meant until the installation was completed, we did not need to pay for that phase of the build that was due. However, I really need to stress the importance of talking to your site supervisor to ensure you have the right information based on who you are building with. Some different building companies might have variations in their contract on what they deem "practically complete". At the time, our site supervisor said assured us that we would not pay late fees penalties due to the fact that they had not been able to complete what they had agreed to in the contract at that point in time (to safeguard myself, I also got this in writing via email).
@@TianSisak Great! Thank you for your advice. Its good to know this kind of stuffs beforehand.
You are welcome! Good luck with your handover :) such an exciting time!!
When is your checklist coming out?
Will be out this weekend!! Maybe sooner :)
Building inspectors are not regulated in WA so its almost pointless here
