Preinspections provides comprehensive Building Inspection Reports designed to help you know the real state of your real estate. Our inspections utilize advanced thermography and infrared scanning technology to detect hidden issues that conventional methods might miss. For example, while a conventional moisture meter requires finding the moisture location first to analyze a damp trail, our infrared photography instantly reveals damp walls, cornices, and ceilings, easily tracking the trail of dampness. We also use this technology to assess concealed roof spaces for missing insulation and structural timbers, making it ideal for flat roofs with no access. Our building inspections cover a wide range of critical areas. We evaluate the electrical system to detect faulty electrical wiring and over-heating fuses, warning of possible electrical fires. We analyze the building envelope to record the thermal performance of wall and window assemblies, gauging energy efficiency and energy conservation. We also conduct mechanical analysis to check the condition of wear on moving and mechanical systems, and test for gas leaks. Our detailed building reports include assessments of water entry, rising salt damp, plumbing systems, asbestos, structural systems, roofing systems, health and safety, noise pollution, and building and code compliance. Each report comes with detailed photographs, a floor plan diagram, council checks, the exact location of defects (such as water damage from incorrect antennae installation), and repair recommendations with repair estimates. We are fully backed by Professional Indemnity Insurance for your peace of mind.
