Quick inspection when done

Ross

I believe the answer is:

once-over

'quick inspection' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'when done' is the wordplay.
'when' becomes 'once' ('once' can be a synonym of 'when').
'done' becomes 'over' (I've seen this before).
'once'+'over'='ONCE-OVER'

(Other definitions for once-over that I've seen before include "Quick appraisal" , "Cursory examination" , "Quick survey" , "Quick examination" , "Rapid inspection" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
