Combined Building and Pest Inspection
Description
Buying a house is a huge financial investment and can be very risky without a comprehensive home inspection, especially if you are asked to sign a formal offer without special conditions. Our Combined Building and Pest Inspection is designed to protect your investment and provide you with vital information about the condition of the property. The building inspection covers all aspects of the property from external to internal, visually checking elements for signs of potential damage and health risks such as rising dampness, leaks, plumbing issues, insulation flaws, cracks, mould, decay, tiling defects, drainage problems, and structural failings. Simultaneously, the timber pest inspection is meticulously carried out in accordance with Australian Standard AS 4349.3 - 1998. This includes locating records of any past treatments and thoroughly inspecting the roof, subfloor, timber cabinets, cupboards, skirting boards, outbuildings, and surrounding trees for subterranean termites (white ants) and other timber pests. Our trade-expert inspectors bring all the tools of the trade, including powerful torches, ladders, and industry-recognized thermal sensing and moisture technology to inspect both visible and hidden areas. You will receive an easy-to-read, comprehensive condition report detailing major and minor defects, safety hazards, and pest activity within 24 hours of the inspection, empowering you to make your purchase decision with absolute confidence.
