Questions
What is an ITP for tiling work?
An Inspection and Test Plan lists the checks, tests and sign-offs needed on tiling work, in order. Each line is a checkpoint: a hold point (work stops until approved), a witness point (the client may attend) or a review check.
Which tiling checkpoints are hold points?
Hold points in this template: Waterproofing signed off before tiling.
Can I edit this template?
Yes. In OzHub you can copy a template, add or remove checkpoints and change which ones are hold or witness points. Your project specification and engineer come first.
Does my client need the app?
No. They get a private link by email, see the checkpoints and photos, type their name and approve or reject. No app or login.
