The lockup stage is often referred to as a pre plaster stage, it is the point in time of building a new house when you can ‘lock up’ the house. This tends to be when all the windows and exterior doors have been installed.

The lockup stage is a major milestone when building a house. Once the external doors are on and your windows are in and it allows for internal appliances and fixtures (e.g. light fixtures, taps etc.) to be installed. 

iSPECT Building Inspections recommend engaging a building inspector to complete a new home lock up stage inspection. Our inspectors service all of Victoria with office locations in Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula, Geelong and Ballarat.
