Covered work paperwork slows down the inspection call

What slows QLD plumbers down before the council visit.

Same site and permit details every job

Street address, permit number, and responsible person contact should carry over from your last Form 3 on that site.

Stage of work easy to miss on a flat PDF

The nine covered-work checkboxes and work description are buried in a phone PDF viewer.
