HomeMasters provides comprehensive pre-purchase building inspections across Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills to help buyers make informed decisions and avoid unexpected repair costs. With over 14 years of industry experience, our expert inspectors conduct thorough examinations of both the interior and exterior of the property. We allocate approximately four hours per inspection, spending 2 to 2.5 hours on-site to ensure nothing is rushed. The inspection covers structural integrity, foundations, flooring, electrical, ventilation, drainage, plumbing, roof framing, moisture in wet areas, retaining walls, and more. We also check specific elements like salt/rising damp, insulation, fencing, windows, doors, gutters, downpipes, tiling, skylights, stairs, balconies, and garaging. Reports are highly detailed, completed on an iPad for clarity, and exceed Australian Standards 4349.1 2007. Clients are highly encouraged to attend the inspection for a personalized one-on-one walkthrough of the findings. Reports include color photographs highlighting any major or minor defects and are delivered the same day or early the next morning, ensuring buyers have ample time during their cooling-off period. To make the process seamless, we handle access arrangements with vendors or agents on the buyer's behalf. Prices start from $550.00 inclusive of GST, providing an invaluable investment in your peace of mind. Our experienced inspection team is known for a meticulous approach, carefully examining every accessible area of the property. We combine proven inspection methods, modern technology, and years of hands-on industry experience to ensure nothing is overlooked.

The combined building and pest inspection offers a complete, all-in-one package for Adelaide homebuyers, saving time, hassle, and at least $150 compared to booking separate services. This comprehensive examination covers everything from structural and maintenance issues to identifying unwanted timber pests. Conducted by highly trained professionals equipped with the latest detection technology, the inspection complies with both Australian Standards AS4349.1 and AS4349.3. The service includes a thorough check of the property's interior, exterior, roof void, and subfloor. Clients receive a detailed, easy-to-read report complete with color photographs highlighting any structural defects, pest activity, or maintenance problems. Because HomeMasters employs licensed in-house pest control technicians, you only deal with one company from start to finish. If pests are found, our inspectors can provide immediate advice on eradication costs and refer you to appropriate experts for any structural or maintenance repairs. Reports are delivered within 24 hours—often the same day or early the next morning—to ensure buyers are fully informed before the cooling-off period expires. The inspection covers all standard building elements as well as checking for termites, borers, fungal decay, rats, mice, possums, spiders, ants, and cockroaches. Our experience and attention to detail have saved countless people from buying into trouble and helped others renegotiate their purchase price to account for necessary repair costs.

HomeMasters offers rigorous pre-purchase timber pest inspections in Adelaide to protect homebuyers from the devastating structural damage caused by termites and other timber pests. Termites cause over $100 million of property damage each year in Australia, and because this damage is not usually covered by home insurance, an independent pre-purchase inspection is a vital investment. Conducted by our in-house expert pest technicians, the inspection meets all requirements of Australian Standards AS 4349.3 and AS 3660. The comprehensive assessment goes beyond just termites, also checking for borers, fungal decay, rats, mice, possums, spiders, ants, and cockroaches. Inspectors actively look for termite workings, damage, and conducive conditions such as excessive moisture or poor drainage. The rigorous process includes knock testing all visible and accessible timbers, including the roof space. We also conduct moisture testing on walls and skirtings; since termites are around 70% moisture, high readings in supposedly dry substrates are a strong indicator of their presence. Furthermore, we check surrounding trees up to 50 meters from the main dwelling and inspect the meterbox for labels indicating prior treatments. If active termites or prior treatments are located, the inspector provides detailed advice on the species, potential damage, the chemical used, and necessary eradication or barrier treatments.

HomeMasters provides independent staged building inspections for new home builds in Adelaide, ensuring that construction complies with relevant Australian Standards and building codes. This service keeps builders fully accountable before any stage payments are made and helps identify minor issues before they develop into costly problems later in the build. The inspections cover the four critical stages of construction. First is the Footing Inspection, which checks positioning, reinforcements, formwork, and termite protection around pipe penetrations before the slab is poured. Second is the Slab, Wall, and Roof Framing Inspection, where inspectors check framing layouts, truss layouts, strapping, and bracing to ensure the durability of wall frames and roof structures. All timber framing is checked for full compliance with AS1684, including verifying that walls are straight and do not overhang the concrete slab. Third is the Wet Area Inspection, ensuring internal wet areas and balconies are suitably waterproofed with correct run-off gradients, compliant with AS3740 and AS4654. Finally, the Completion Inspection is a thorough final check before handover, covering paint finishes, sanitary installations, cabinetry, floor coverings, tiling, grouting, cornices, ceilings, architraves, and skirtings. Buyers receive a comprehensive report at the end of each stage, and inspectors will communicate directly with the builder regarding any defects or non-compliance issues found.
