A comprehensive building and pest inspection is highly recommended to identify property defects and signs of pest or termite activity. Conducted by an experienced builder and licensed pest inspector, this service ensures your property is thoroughly evaluated in accordance with Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007 and the Western Australia Building Act. The inspection typically takes between 1-2 hours, depending on the size of the property. During this time, the inspector conducts a visual assessment of all accessible areas, including the interior and exterior of the building, roof space, roof exterior, under-floor space, garage, carport, garden shed, separate laundry or toilet, small retaining walls, steps, fencing, paths, and driveways. The pest inspection specifically tests for pests, termites, and borer activity, looking for telltale signs such as hollow-sounding wood, mud tubes, bubbling or peeling paint, small holes, water damage, buckling walls or ceilings, maze-like designs in timber, termite droppings, and the appearance of swarms. The inspector will grade the severity of each defect and alert you to any conditions conducive to termite activity. You will receive a detailed digital report in PDF format, complete with high-resolution color photographs, within 24 hours. Clients are strongly encouraged to be present during the inspection to discuss findings directly, point out specific concerns, and make an informed decision about the property's structural viability.

A dedicated pest and termite inspection is essential to identify the presence of timber pests, termites, and borer activity that could compromise your property. Conducted by a licensed pest inspector, this thorough assessment actively looks for telltale signs of infestation. The inspector will check for hollow-sounding wood when knocked, the appearance of mud tubes used for termite travel, bubbling or peeling paint on walls, small entry holes, and moisture or water damage that attracts pests. Additionally, the inspection identifies buckling walls or ceilings caused by weakened wooden foundations, maze-like designs eaten into timber, termite droppings that resemble sawdust or coffee grounds, and the appearance of termite swarms, particularly during spring. Identifying these signs early can potentially save you thousands of dollars on repair bills. Following the inspection, you will receive a detailed digital report in PDF format, complete with high-resolution color photographs, within 24 hours. We strongly recommend regular pest inspections to ensure your property remains worry-free and structurally viable. Clients are encouraged to discuss the findings directly with the inspector to fully understand any existing pests or conditions on the property surrounds that are conducive to future termite or borer activity.

This is my 3rd time using iSPECT. They are very professional. It's easy to book online and they contacted the agents to arrange all the rest. The inspection report is clear to understand, it would be perfect if the photos were taken brighter.
