Why Should You Schedule a Building and Pest Inspection for Your Home?
Identify Hidden Problems
Homes in Ferny Hills often face termite pressure due to damp soil and nearby creeks such as Kedron Brook. Issues like timber rot or termite activity typically start unnoticed.
Negotiate a Better Price
A detailed inspection report gives you solid evidence to support price negotiations or contract conditions. Knowing the exact property condition strengthens your position.
Make Informed Decisions
Beyond detecting issues, our reports help you plan ahead. We offer maintenance and prevention recommendations suited to Ferny Hills’ climate and homes.
We Inspect the Following Areas
Interior
We examine skirting boards, wardrobes, ceilings, walls, and flooring for signs of damage, pest activity, or structural shifts.
Exterior
We check garden beds, retaining walls, lawns, and perimeter edges for pest signs—especially where timber or mulch touches the structure.
Roof Space
We inspect insulation, roof trusses, flashing, beams, and penetrations for moisture or pest activity.
Floor Space
We assess timber settlement, crawl space access, moisture presence, and ground-to-structure contact on sloped blocks.
Around the Building
We evaluate drainage, downpipes, soil slope, and timber features near foundations.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad to hear you were pleased with the responsiveness and communication. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Very thorough inspection done by Ben. As soon as he’s there he gets all his equipment out - drones, thermocam, etc. Report is out on the day. Does not waste time and gets the job done. Would not get the same inspection with the same amount of price. Thanks.
