Description

A structural building inspection is an essential step when purchasing a property, providing buyers with peace of mind before finalizing their real estate investment. Operating across Launceston, Hobart, Devonport, Queenstown, and statewide throughout Tasmania, Tasmanian Building Inspections offers comprehensive structural assessments conducted by expert, accredited, and local building inspectors. Fully insured and compliant with Australian Standard 4943.1, this service focuses on the structural integrity of the building to identify major defects, safety hazards, or issues compromising stability. The thorough inspection encompasses multiple critical elements of the property. This includes the interior (walls, ceilings, and floors) and the exterior (cladding, stairs, balconies, verandas, patios, decks, and balustrades). Inspectors also examine the roof exterior structure, the roof space (framing and party walls), and the sub-floor space, checking timber floors, supports, ventilation, drainage, and structural dampness. Furthermore, the assessment covers the property within 30 meters of the house, including car accommodation, detached laundries, ablution facilities, garden sheds, steps, and retaining walls (especially those supporting other structures or landscaping walls over 700mm high). Surface and storm water drainage are also evaluated if they exacerbate foundation instability. Following the site visit, clients receive an unbiased, easy-to-read written report of approximately 18 pages within 24 hours. This detailed report features a property description, a summary of hazards and defects, an area-by-area breakdown with color photographs, recommendations for further investigation, and a conclusion comparing the building's overall condition to properties of a similar type and age. We also handle booking directly with the real estate agent for a seamless process.
