Building & Pest Inspections

What a building & pest inspection covers

A combined inspection looks at the building and at timber pest activity in a single visit, so you get the full picture of a property before you commit. Our inspectors assess all safely accessible areas and record every significant finding with photos and plain-English explanations.

• Interior: walls, ceilings, floors, windows, doors, wet areas and evidence of leaks or dampness
• Exterior: cladding, brickwork, eaves, gutters, downpipes, paths, fences and retaining walls
• Roof exterior and roof space: coverings, flashings, framing and insulation where accessible
• Subfloor: stumps, bearers, joists, ventilation and drainage where accessible
• Timber pests: active termites, termite damage, borers and wood decay, plus conditions that attract them
• Safety hazards and major defects that may need urgent attention

Technology that finds what the eye can’t

Where appropriate we use thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture and possible termite activity behind linings, a non-invasive moisture meter to confirm readings in timber, plaster and masonry, and laser levelling to check floors for movement or settlement.

Reports that prioritise what matters

Your report separates major defects, minor defects and maintenance items so you know what matters most when you negotiate. Findings are explained in plain English with supporting photos.
