Pre Purchase Inspections

Buying an existing or new property is a significant decision, and ensuring your future property is up to standard is a step you should never overlook. Before you finalise any purchase, our pre-purchase inspection service ensures that you are fully aware of the property's condition. We meticulously assess the building's structure, systems, and finishes to uncover any hidden issues or defects that could impact your investment. Our inspections cover every aspect of the property, including structural integrity, compliance with building codes, and the quality of workmanship. This thorough approach ensures that you are not left with any unanswered questions. This comprehensive evaluation helps you make an informed decision and can save you from unexpected repairs and costly surprises down the line. Our certified inspectors bring years of experience in pre-purchase inspections and building evaluations. Rex brings over 40 years of expertise in detailed reporting, while Mark adds 10 years of full-time experience as a registered builder and inspector. We are fully insured and hold a full unlimited building registration, giving you added security that your inspection is backed by the right protections. We prioritise your peace of mind, ensuring thorough assessments and comprehensive reports that allow you to move forward with clarity and confidence.

Section 137B Owner Builder Reports

A Section 137B Owner Builder Report evaluates the compliance and quality of work carried out by an owner-builder, ensuring adherence to building codes and safety regulations. As per the State of Victoria, this report covers any work that has not been carried out by a registered builder. This includes, but is not limited to, painting both internally and externally, new floor coverings, and kitchen, bathroom, and laundry renovations or upgrades. Although not all building works require permits, many of these projects do require plumbing certificates, electrical safety certificates, and even waterproofing certificates to be provided. These inspection reports cover works that were completed by the current owners within the last six and a half years. If these works cost more than $16,000, owner builder insurance is required to have been obtained. Insurance is not required if the works were completed between six and six and a half years ago; however, the inspection report is still mandatory. It is important to note that an owner builder inspection report is not a substitute for a building permit. Ultimately, this paperwork will be contained in your Section 32 to provide to prospective buyers, ensuring full transparency and compliance.

New Home Stage Inspections

Planning on buying or investing in a new property? Our expertise shines in conducting new home stage inspections, which are carried out at various stages of the construction process. By evaluating the property at different stages, we assess compliance with building codes and the quality of workmanship to catch issues early. We identify any defects or areas requiring attention before they become costly repairs. This proactive approach and early detection enable builders to rectify issues promptly, allowing for timely corrections and ensuring that your new home is built to the highest standards and remains safe and secure. The practical completion inspection at the end of the build assesses each property as per the Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2015 and the relevant Australian standards. This detailed assessment provides a specific notation to the relevant page, chapter, and note that refers to the defect. Understanding the significance of these inspections is essential; they give you a clear picture of the construction quality and any works required to protect your investment. With our comprehensive reports, you will have an indication of costs that may be incurred in rectification works, giving you complete peace of mind.
