Our comprehensive pre-purchase Building and Pest Inspection provides you with the peace of mind and knowledge needed to complete, renegotiate, or terminate a property purchase with confidence. Conducted by experienced, fully insured, and QBCC-licensed builders and pest inspectors, this service involves a thorough visual inspection of all accessible areas of the property. We investigate the interior, exterior, roof void, and sub-floor to detect safety hazards, major and minor building defects, general maintenance issues, and any evidence of timber pests such as termites, borers, and fungal decay. We utilize state-of-the-art termite detection technology, including thermal imaging tools and digital moisture meters, to identify hidden leaks, dampness issues, and termite movement within walls. Our detailed digital reports include photographic evidence of each defect and are delivered within 24 hours of the inspection. We also provide valuable advice regarding potential asbestos presence, estimated costs of repairs, and renovation guidance. We conduct electrical checks that we can by law, including turning on light switches to check for flickering, the condition of the meter box, plus the presence of smoke alarms and safety switches. Our plumbing checks include flushing toilets to check function and drainage, plus the gutters and downpipes for rust, damage and blockages. In the yard we note defects to boundary fences and gates, the clothesline, garden shed, paths, driveways and retaining walls. Your inspector will speak directly with you after the inspection to clearly explain the findings and discuss any major issues, helping you make informed decisions about your property investment.

Our Building Inspection is conducted in accordance with Australian Standards 4349.1 by experienced and fully insured QBCC-licensed builders. This service involves a comprehensive visual inspection of all accessible areas of the property's interior and exterior, including the roof void and sub-floor. We meticulously examine the property to detect safety hazards, major structural defects, minor defects, and general maintenance requirements. The inspection covers critical areas such as wet areas, masonry walls, electrical and plumbing basics, yard structures, and roof exteriors. On the roof exterior, we check the condition of cladding, fascia boards, flashings, gutters, downpipes, soffits, and valleys, noting broken tiles, rust, and water damage. Masonry walls are closely examined for defects such as fretting bricks, cracking, damp damage, differential movement, inadequate joint sealant, eroding mortar, blocked vents, and weep hole ventilation. In the interior, all rooms are inspected for building defects to the ceiling, doors, floors, painting, walls, and windows. We carefully check if the floors are level, windows and doors function normally, and look for other signs of movement relating to major structural defects. Our detailed building inspection report compares your property with a building of a similar age and construction type, clearly outlining all variations from the normal condition. We provide photographic evidence for identified defects and offer valuable advice, including estimated costs for necessary repairs. Following the inspection, our inspector will personally discuss the findings with you to ensure you fully understand the structural condition of the home.

Timber Pest Inspection

Est. arrival time: Flexible (1-2 weeks+)

24-Hour Report Turnaround Thermal Imaging

Our Timber Pest Inspection is performed in accordance with Australian Standards 4349.3 by qualified pest inspectors carrying full Professional Indemnity insurance. This service involves a thorough visual examination of all accessible areas of the property, including the interior, exterior, roof void, and sub-floor, specifically looking for active termites, evidence of termite damage, and other timber pests such as borers and fungal decay. We also identify conducive conditions that could lead to future termite attacks, such as poor drainage, inadequate ventilation, and high moisture areas. Termites can be a homeowner's worst nightmare due to the extensive damage they cause. The termite species that cause the most building defects in Brisbane are Coptotermes, which can forage up to 50 metres from their nests and are highly attracted to moist timbers in your home. They commonly nest at the base of trees or in sub-floors with poor drainage. Our pest technicians are equipped with state-of-the-art termite detection technology, including thermal imaging tools and moisture meters, to detect hidden termite movement and dampness within walls. We report on the status of any current termite management systems and advise on actionable steps to reduce the risk of termite attack, protecting your valuable asset. A comprehensive digital report with photos is provided within 24 hours, and our inspector will personally explain the findings to ensure you have complete peace of mind.

Odette Jo

I engaged Building and Pest Inspection Brisbane to do a building and pest inspection on an apartment in Brisbane CBD. Paul was incredibly professional and accomodating even when I was a bit indecisive and cancelled and then rebooked. The inspection was done incredibly quickly and was very thorough. I have no hesitation in recommending Paul and his team. A pleasure to deal with.
