A combined building and pest inspection is an essential step for property purchasers and vendors in Coffs Harbour and surrounding areas to identify any building, safety, and pest issues that may devalue a property. This comprehensive service involves a specialized two-man team: a fully licensed builder with over 30 years of industry experience and a dedicated timber pest specialist who is active in the field and experienced in treating and protecting homes. The building inspection covers critical structural and safety elements, ensuring the property is structurally sound and identifying any major defects, poor workmanship, or safety hazards. Simultaneously, the timber pest inspection focuses on detecting active termites, borers, timber decay, mold, and conditions conducive to pest attacks, which is crucial given Coffs Harbour's status as a high-risk termite zone. To ensure the most accurate assessment, the inspection utilizes state-of-the-art, non-invasive fault detection technology at no extra cost. This includes Flir E8 thermal imaging cameras, Tramex moisture meters, and the Termatrac T3i termite radar, which can identify concealed termite activity behind walls. If roof access is limited or inaccessible by a ladder, an aerial drone may be used to safely assess the roof's condition. Following the assessment, clients receive two easy-to-read, highly detailed photographic reports emailed within three hours on the same day as the inspection. The service also includes organizing access with the agent or tenants and a follow-up consultation to ensure buyers fully understand the findings before making their investment decision.
