Pre Purchase Building & Pest Inspection

24-Hour Report Turnaround

It is important to ensure that pre-purchase building inspections and property pest inspections are conducted before signing a contract of sale for a home. Pre-purchase building inspections identify any major structural defects in the property, while property pest inspections can detect any issues with termites or other timber pests that could damage the property. This combined service is highly recommended for anyone looking at buying a home, including first home buyers, property investors, and current homeowners. Our building and pest inspections are comprehensive, covering all accessible interior and exterior areas of the property in accordance with AS standard 4349.1 2007 and 4349.3-2010 regulations. During the inspection, we look for major defects, minor defects, safety hazards, and timber pest-related issues throughout the property. Inspections are performed directly by the owner of the company, ensuring high-quality service without the use of sub-contractors. Our team is dedicated to providing you with an accurate assessment of your prospective purchase, helping to identify any major issues present at inspection that could potentially cost a significant amount if left undiscovered. We strive to ensure our clients have peace of mind when investing in their dream home or commercial space by providing them with reliable information about its condition prior to signing on the dotted line. Once completed, you will receive a detailed inspection report on the same day, complete with images, diagrams, and clear explanations.

Pre-Purchase Building Inspection

A pre-purchase building inspection is a meticulous investigation into the unseen corners of a property, designed to identify any major structural defects before you sign a contract of sale. Highly recommended for anyone looking to buy a home, this comprehensive service covers all accessible interior and exterior areas of the property in accordance with AS standard 4349.1 2007 regulations. Our inspections extend beyond the commonplace to embrace a holistic approach. We thoroughly examine the structural integrity of the foundation, walls, and overall framework. We also evaluate visual plumbing systems for leaks or corrosion, identify safety hazards such as exposed electrical wiring or missing balustrading, assess external factors like roofing, gutters, and onsite drainage, and detect the presence of mould or moisture issues. Early detection of these issues empowers homebuyers financially, allowing for effective negotiation and proactive decision-making. It provides a realistic portrayal of the property's condition, preventing buyers from entering a transaction with rose-coloured glasses.

Vendor Report / Owner Pre-Listing Report

24-Hour Report Turnaround

Vendor reports, also known as Owner Pre-Listing Reports, are an essential part of the property selling process. They provide potential buyers with detailed, upfront information about the condition of your property. By obtaining a vendor report, you can proactively inform buyers about any issues that could affect the property's value or usability, such as building defects, pest infestations, or structural problems. This transparency helps buyers make a confident, informed decision when purchasing, potentially smoothing the negotiation process. Most homeowners do not have the specialised tools or industry knowledge required to discover potential issues on their own. Furthermore, they are unlikely to crawl through difficult-to-reach spaces like roof voids or subfloors to find hidden building defects. These areas are common breeding grounds for safety hazards, including exposed electrical wiring, dampness, and wood decay caused by water leaks. A professional vendor report ensures you are fully informed of any defects you might not know about that could hinder your sale. It gives you the opportunity to address and repair these hidden issues before going to market. Ultimately, this service provides you with the peace of mind knowing that you have made every effort to present a safe, well-maintained home, allowing you to list your property with absolute confidence. You will receive your detailed report, complete with images, diagrams, and explanations, on the same day as the inspection.

New Construction Stage Inspections

24-Hour Report Turnaround

At Trusted Home Inspections, our New Construction Stage Inspections ensure that your new build adheres strictly to the Victorian Guide to Standards and Tolerances guidelines and all relevant Australian Standards. We provide thorough structural reports detailing any existing defects, poor quality workmanship, or non-compliance with building regulations. These inspections are invaluable for first home owners, property investors, developers, owner-builders, and anyone with limited time or knowledge of the building process. We offer comprehensive reporting across the four main stages of new construction. First, the Pre-Pour Slab inspection checks that preparation aligns with relevant construction documents, slab engineering, the BCA, AS 2870, and Standards and Tolerances 2015. Second, the Frame Stage inspection ensures the frame is erected to a satisfactory standard per the BCA and AS 1684.2, evaluating wall straightness, window installations, structural load points, and roof truss alignments. Third, the Pre-Plaster Stage inspection guarantees your building is properly prepared for plastering, allowing any flawed workmanship or damage to be rectified before it is permanently concealed. Finally, the Fix Stage inspection occurs once internal fixing is complete. This assesses the installation of doors, architraves, skirting boards, internal cladding, built-in shelves, basins, baths, laundry troughs, sinks, joinery, and cupboards. By identifying non-compliant issues early, we ensure your building is constructed exactly according to your documented building contract, protecting your investment every step of the way.

Practical Completion Inspections / Handover Inspections

24-Hour Report Turnaround

Practical Completion Inspections (PCI), also known as Pre-Handover Inspections, are a vital part of the new home building process. Provided by Trusted Home Inspections, these reports help identify any potential issues, incomplete work, or defects with a property before you make your final payment and complete the purchase. This inspection is your last chance to ensure everything is up to scratch before handing over your hard-earned cash. A PCI is conducted once the occupancy certificate has been issued and the client has ensured the build is completed as per the building contract. During the walkthrough, our qualified inspectors focus on several key areas. We evaluate structural integrity by checking for signs of defects or weaknesses like cracks or uneven surfaces. We assess the quality of all finishing work, ensure the construction complies with building codes, regulations, and contractual agreements, and identify any safety hazards that could endanger occupants. If substantial imperfections are detected, you are legally entitled to request that your builder resolve them. This should be followed by a follow-up inspection to verify that all issues have been appropriately addressed prior to rendering any remaining payments. By pinpointing defects early, a PCI helps prevent disagreements between homeowners and builders, facilitating a smooth, worry-free transition from construction to moving in. Ultimately, it provides the ideal opportunity for a successful handover so you can enjoy living in your brand-new house with complete peace of mind.

Laura Johnsey

Arranging a building inspection with Adam, was easy and timely. The report was also completed that same day and his attention to detail was beyond my expectations. I am very grateful for the detailed report which not only supported the purchase of a property but also planning and considerations to other work that would need to be completed when purchased.

Celina Meisake

We used Adam for a building and pest inspection and were really impressed with how thorough he was. His report clearly outlined both major and minor issues, from roof tile wear and masonry cracking to mould in the garage and general maintenance items. His report made it easy to understand the true condition of the property. Very professional, detailed and easy to deal with. Highly recommend.
