The inspection shall include only accessible areas and areas that are within the inspector’s line of sight and close enough to enable reasonable appraisal. Minimum dimensions for reasonable access Roof Interior - access hole - 400 mm x 500mm, crawl space - 600mm x 600mm Sub floor - access hole - 400mm x 500mm, crawl space - 600mm x 600mm It is the Client’s responsibility to ensure access to areas to be inspected prior to the inspection.
