Why Is a Building and Pest Inspection Important?

Purchasing a property is one of the largest financial decisions you will make. A building and pest inspection provides crucial information about the true condition of a property, identifying structural defects, safety hazards, and pest infestations that could cost thousands to repair. Without a professional inspection, you risk buying a property with hidden problems that may not be covered by insurance.

Building and Pest Inspection FAQs

Answers to common questions about our building and pest inspection services

A building and pest inspection is a comprehensive assessment of a property that combines a structural building inspection with a timber pest inspection. It identifies structural defects, safety hazards, maintenance issues, and evidence of termite or pest activity.

A building and pest inspection protects your investment by uncovering hidden defects and pest damage that may not be visible during a standard property viewing. It helps you make an informed purchasing decision, negotiate the price, or avoid a costly mistake.

Our building inspection covers all accessible areas including the roof exterior and interior, subfloor, exterior walls, interior rooms, wet areas (bathrooms, laundry, kitchen), garage, carport, and site drainage. We assess structural integrity, safety hazards, and maintenance issues.

Our pest inspection identifies evidence of timber pests including termites, borers, and wood decay fungi. We inspect all accessible areas using thermal imaging and moisture detection equipment to identify active infestations, previous damage, and conditions conducive to pest activity.

A combined building and pest inspection typically takes 2-3 hours depending on the size and condition of the property. Larger properties or those with significant issues may take longer, with no additional charges for extended inspection time.
