Minimum qualifications and checks
Under proposed reforms, inspectors must have at least five years experience in approved building roles, formal technical qualifications and a national police check.
Current unregulated environment
Until legislation is enacted, there is no requirement for a person to be qualified when conducting building inspections in South Australia; engaging a qualified independent surveyor or architect is recommended.
