Why Should You Schedule a Building and Pest Inspections for Your Home?
Identify Hidden Problems
Many of the most damaging issues in a home or commercial property aren't visible to the naked eye. Termites can quietly destroy internal structures, rodents can nest in roof voids, and moisture can seep into foundations. These problems develop slowly but lead to expensive repairs if left unchecked.
Negotiate a Better Price
When you're buying a property, a professional inspection gives you leverage. It provides factual evidence of a property's true condition, which can help you negotiate a better price. Sellers are more likely to agree to a lower sale price or perform repairs before settlement when faced with a detailed report.
Make Informed Decisions
A thorough building and pest inspection gives you a complete understanding of the property’s structural condition, pest exposure, and any existing or potential problems. This clarity helps buyers avoid overpaying, gives sellers time to fix concerns, and sets realistic expectations for all parties.
We Inspect the Following Areas
Interior
As part of our pre purchase building inspections, we carefully check walls, ceilings, floors, skirting boards, doors, and window frames for signs of structural movement, moisture issues, and pest activity. Our reports highlight both major and minor defects to give buyers clear insight before making decisions.
Exterior
Our pest inspectors assess the façade, eaves, gutters, downpipes, and external timber for deterioration or pest entry points. We also check paths, driveways, decks, stairs, and other outdoor structures, providing a clear pest inspection report with our findings.
Roof Space
As part of our pest inspections Redcliffe, we examine roof voids for nests, chew marks, droppings, mould, water ingress, or damaged insulation. We also check trusses and supports for any signs of pest damage or structural weakening.
Floor Space
As part of our inspection process, we access crawl spaces and basements to assess subfloor timbers, insulation, soil conditions, and drainage. Our timber pest inspections look for termites, fungal decay, and ventilation problems that may threaten your property’s safety.
Around the Building
Our local inspectors check fences, retaining walls, gardens, pergolas, and sheds for risks such as wood-to-soil contact, mulch near the home, or branches touching the roof. Every inspection is carried out in line with Australian Standards.
