Why do I need a Building Inspection?
A building inspection is essential for various reasons, primarily to ensure the safety, structural integrity, and overall condition of a property. Whether buying, selling, or maintaining a building, inspections provide valuable insights into potential issues such as structural damage, pest infestations, electrical hazards, plumbing problems, and more. Identifying these issues early on can prevent costly repairs down the line and ensure that the property meets safety standards and regulatory requirements. Additionally, for buyers, a thorough inspection report can inform negotiation and decision-making processes, providing peace of mind and confidence in their investment.

Services we offer
Practical Completion Reports
A practical completion report is a comprehensive report prepared upon the completion of a building project. It details the final stage of construction, confirming that the work has been finished to the agreed-upon standard and specifications outlined in the contract. The report typically includes an assessment of the property's overall condition, noting any defects or outstanding issues that need to be addressed before the project can be considered officially complete.
Pre-purchase reports
A pre-purchase building inspection is an evaluation conducted before a property is purchased. It aims to identify any structural, safety, or maintenance issues that may affect the property's value or safety. The inspection report provides potential buyers with crucial information to make informed decisions about the property and may influence negotiations or repair requests before finalising the purchase.
Defect Identification
A defect identification report is a detailed document outlining any structural or cosmetic issues found within a property. These issues can range from minor cosmetic flaws to significant structural concerns. The report typically includes descriptions, photographs, and recommendations for addressing the identified defects, providing valuable guidance for property owners, buyers, or sellers on necessary repairs or maintenance.
Termite Inspection
A termite identification report utilising thermal imaging incorporates advanced technology to detect potential termite activity within a property. By combining visual inspections with thermal imaging, inspectors can provide a more comprehensive assessment of termite presence and potential damage, facilitating early detection and treatment to protect the property from further infestation.
